There is no better holiday than resting in Athens, Greece...
I've been there in 2004 when the Olympic Games took place. Had even the occasion to watch athletics.
What impressed me the most was the city's architecture, which is very far from what we understand as a megalopolis. It's very classical and at the same time modern...

well thank you peter....

i loved ljubljana where i went for hols recently there....i also love dublin where i live....freiburg in germany...brugges in belgium...amsterdam....brussels....
i love architecture, buldings,culture,cuisine,coffe shops,castles, churches....places that you do not have to go to a museum to see the history....but the whole town is history itself....

Paris is very much beautiful. It's considered to be the most romantic place in the world, and it's true. People are very polite and open, you'll never get in trouble.
The sight from the Eiffel Tower is unforgeteable...

oh yes...and paris.....to big though for my taste...i get stressed with so many people....especially in the underground....but it is as you describe....!!!!

oh yes, sure it does have an underground with lots of people. It's normal. Have you seen big cities with no underground. The point is that you should be in one step with the city's tendencies. In the eve of nay holiday, the happy atmosphere is felt in the air, in Paris.

London is definitely not a holiday destination. There are people who cold like it though. Definitely no good weather - rains, fogs etc. But, the city's architecture is very nice and calling.

Oh, I disagree, I love London! It can get cold, but not as cold as central Europe or Scandinavia There is great shopping and night life - fashionable and alternative - and plenty of galleries, museums, good food... And in Summer there are open air concerts and festivals in the parks. It is a very expensive city, but you can have some fun on a budget if you look around. I would suggest visiting in Summer ;-)

I agree with Ljubljana, it's a real fairytale city - the old town and castle are really beautiful :-) It's a very relaxing place too - most capital cities are full of people rushing everywhere. And the people are very friendly (some guy let me borrow his umbrella!)

My other favourites are Vienna and Berlin. Though, again, they can get cold over winter ;-)

Any city in Switzerland will leave you a lot of emotions and good impressions. What is foremost surprising is that you can't find places where there's no order. Everything is so clean and shining. Besides, people there are so exact! They never get late.
