 ROME
The Eternal City.Twenty million visitors
a year can't be wrong.There is
something about Rome that fascinates
and attracts people, year after year, and
century after century.This incredible
hold on the world's imagination has
made Rome one of the most fascinating
and sought-out tourist destinations in
the world.The Eternal City contains
layer upon layer of history leaving its
mark upon countless monuments, ruins,
museums, and catacombs.
Considering the long, impressive history
that has molded Rome, the historic
centre is actually quite small and easily
visited within a short time, and the city
itself can be seen as an enormous
open-air museum. Art works as
magnificent as Michelangelo's Moses or
the Pieta adorn parish churches and
basilicas, allowing visitors to admire
them completely free of charge. Rome
is home to so many churches that seeing
them all, at a rate of one church a day,
would take more than a year; and that is
not even mentioning the majesty that is
St. Peter's and the Vatican.
Italian cuisine is one of the most popular
worldwide with an unparalleled degree
of international influence. But the
experience of having Italian food in
Rome is unique, becoming a blend of
cultural and culinary imagination. From
5-star restaurants to street-side cafés,
there is something magical for everyone.

A dream wed to the sea. It is called La
Serenissima or "the most serene,"
a reference to the power, majesty, and
wisdom of this city that was for
centuries, the unrivaled leader in trade
between Europe and the Orient. Built
entirely on water by men who dared
defy the sea,Venice is like no other place
in the world, more dreamlike than you
could ever imagine. Shimmering sunlight
and silvery mist soften every perspective
here, making it easy to understand how
the city became renowned in the
Renaissance for its artists' rendering of
color. It's a place full of secrets,
inexpressibly romantic, and at times
given over entirely to pleasure.
What you've heard is true: there really
are no cars in Venice.You get around
primarily on foot, but with occasional
trips by boat on the famous canals that
lace through the city.

PRAGUE
From Medieval, to Modern, to
Magnificent.The ancient capital of
Charles IV's Bohemian Kingdom, Prague
has played a pivotal role in the
development of Central Europe since
the Middle Ages. An epic history has
made Prague one of the most beautiful
cities in the world, as well as a UNESCO
World Heritage Site.This magical city of
bridges, cathedrals, gold-tipped towers
and church domes is also a modern
European metropolis full of energy,
music, and art. Serene green isles in the
river and peaceful parks draping the
city's seven hills are just steps away from
the architectural treasures and bustling
street life of the city center. Prague's
atmosphere is both intimate and
romantic.
Streets teeming with lively cafés, busy
bars and restaurants all testify to
Prague’s powers of attraction for the
young at heart. Immerse yourself in the
quiet side streets of the Old or New
Town that are happy to welcome the
chance visitor in their restaurants, pubs,
bars and tearooms.
During a walk through the city, you will
quickly discover that the history of
European architecture has left behind
splendid representatives of its various
periods and styles.There are
Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance,
Baroque, and Classicist buildings, as well
as various neo-historic styles and Art
Nouveau.
Mozart placed Prague in the center of
the musical world and entrenched the
city in musical folklore.With one of
the most diverse performing arts
communities on the Continent, Prague
offers concerts, theater and opera to
suit any taste. Be sure to dress up –
evening performances are the one time
not to dress ‘bohemian’, even in
Bohemia!
