Nicest place you have visited in Europe (excluding UK)

[terryberry1]

Benidorm.

 

[Superphil]

City - Prague
Country - Cyprus (all of it, both north and south)

 

[Stat Brother]

Carcassonne.
Oh and obviously Barbados.
As that is the greatest place on earth, I assumed the question was (Excluding UK & Barbados)

 

[Bean]

Another vote for Chania, lovely place.

Kalives in Crete is also really nice.

 

[severnside gull]

Oooh How difficult is this.

Surprised myself by agreeing that La Rochelle and Ile de Re take a lot of beating but in France I think I would ultimately settle for Biarritz because I love the town and its proximity to the basques country and the pyrenees but its a toss up with Saint Cyprien Plage near Perpignan which has a totally different feel but many of the same advantages. Whatever, if I had to choose, I think I would end up in France.

For somewhere unlikely to get a mention the Polish Lakes take some beating and I love the Polish people but really I could think of 100 places in 10 different countries (at least) ...................

Reading this thread I can see I need to revisit Cyprus....and Greece....and.............

I have always enjoyed Amsterdam,for more than the obvious attractions and love Spain,especially the Northern mountain regions.

Antwerp or Seville. Probably Antwerp - amazing city.

 

[Lankyseagull]

Malcesine, Lake Garda, Italy.

 

[shingle]

In no particular order

Reykjavik, Seville, Siena, and my all time favourite Venice

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Siena has had several mentions already, so I'll opt for the delightful city of Montalcino (where I used to live), about 30 miles to the south.

The house I lived in is the one on the right, although the photo dates back to the 1930s. It hasn't changed, though.

 

[DT Withdean]

Amsterdam.

Any Austrian mountain resort.

Sorrento.

 

[DumLum]

Swiss Alps.

 

[TheJasperCo]

Tuscany. Just the general area, lovely.

 

[Weststander]

The Alps.

 

[forrest]

Benidorm.

Seriously?

 

[ExmouthExile]

Venice - the only place that's ever literally taken my breath away .... and that wasn't just the stench of the canals on a sunny day!
