Which Capital Cites In Europe British Tourists Don't Go To!

Whilst many European countries are on the path to an economic recovery the indications are that the fortunes of the British economy are uncertain. Consequently travellers from the UK are faced with £ - € exchange rates only slightly better than at the beginning of 2009

Accordng to the flight search engine skyscanner (see top right of this page) Spain may be hot but its only cool with British tourists who are increasingly attracted to other european more mysterious destinations particularly those out side the eurozone. For several years now Prague has been popular with the Brits so much so that it has an English speaking police station with Berlin and more recently Krakow also places where you might run into your neighbours.

So which european capitals can you go to for a discreet weekend - well according to skyscanner the no.1 place to go is Chisinau in Moldova. which is quite surprising as it renowned for it music, particularly opera and ballet and seems to ouze restaurants. It also is good place to sample some of the nation's quite strong vineyards produce. Belarus's capital Minsk came in second probably because it is the last real example of the communist era in Europe thoughthat may account why the locals are so friendly or does it ? Luaembuorg came in third - but we are not qualified to comment on this one as we have not been there because it has a scary reputation for being pricey! Moldova's capital Skopje took fourth place which is a little surprising as it was the birthplace of Mother Teresa and has strong musical leanings, fascinating archetecture and a bazaar which outshines all the Prague markets put together. The Bosnian capital Sarajevo came in fifth. There are buildings here that date back to the 16th century and some pretty good places to eat. The surprise was ninth placed Belgrade in Serbia as it has many architectural attibutes, is very spacous and has a fast reputation for its european clubbing scene.

The Fall Of Communism includes Berlin Prague Bucharest

a timeline of events in 1989 following Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev's key speeches in 1988 which signalled the end of the cold war and the end of the 45 year Russian occupation of Eastern Europe. Article includes details of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Velvet Revolution in Czechslovakia and the death of Romanian dictator Ceausescu

Travel Dangers And Personal Safety In European Countries And Cities

Though tourist boards and travel companies promote the merits of the travel destinations they serve because they want your money they rarely tell about the downside of where you are thinking of going.

Every country or city has its problems when it comes to personal safety and crime and because as a tourist or visitors you are not familiar with the area you are susceptible to being the target of petty criminals. Euromost city guides highlight the main problems and dangers faced by visitors to a city.

The European 'Dangers Index' contains general advice on personal safety for women travelling to Europe.The index also details the contributions made by individual countries in Europe to the wars Afghanistan and Iraq.

This data suggests that most countries in Europe are to some degree liable to a terrorist attack. Historically there is an indication that the greater the involvement a countrys involvement in these wars the more likely it is to experience terrorism.

The index also identifies countries were local terrorist groups or indigemous freedom fighters may be active such as in Russia.The European Dangers index also identifies areas such as the Balkans where former wars have left a legacy of landmines Dangers Index

Where in Europe To Go?

Though reduced hotel prices across europe have partly offset the cost of European trips for UK travellers (particularly in cities like Amsterdam and Paris) destinations outside the Eurozone generally offer better value. Accommodation prices in Budapest Hungary and Kiev the Ukraine are very competitive at the moment particularly if you prepared to negotiate with the hotelier or agency.

Other cities offering good value Dubrovnik Croatia, Gdansk & Krakow Poland, Tallinn Estonia, Prague Czech Republic, Budapest Hungary, Vilnius Lithuania, Riga Latvia.
