Europe is the most talked about continent for travelers around the globe.

Here’s a list of 10 great cities in Central Europe that you need to visit and experience first-hand at least once in your life:

Mark’s Top 10:

1. Prague, The Czech Republic
2. Vienna, Austria
3. Budapest, Hungary
4. Salzburg, Austria
5. Bratislava, Slovakia
6. Krakow, Poland
7. Ljubljana & Lake Bled, Slovenia
8. Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic
9. Gdansk, Poland
10. Lucerne, Switzerland

The thing I love about this list is that many of these cities aren’t at the top of anyone’s travel itinerary. Which is really surprising because the the intense history lesson each can offer, including awesome fancy old world architecture, art, museums, culture and the FOOD. Eastern — er-um, Central Europeans really know how to eat: blinis, kielbasa, borscht… not to mention the wine, beer and “WODKA”!

Salzburg will probably be the first on my list when I find my way back over to Europe. What’s yours?

Happy and safe travels!
