The post Here’s Why Zaragoza, Spain is the Perfect Travel Destination appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>The huge and iconic Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar in the center by the river is one of the most beautiful and impressive displays of architecture you will see, and the inside is just as beautiful as the majestic outside. Gorgeous old churches and buildings are dotted throughout the rest of the city too.
There is something special about a city built around a river. The Ebro is a stunning river to see and brings a sense of wildness and freshness to the bustling city. There are lovely bridges which cross over it from which you can get an amazing view of the Basílica or you can just have a peaceful walk alongside it.
The old town is an amazing place to explore. Imagine tiny winding streets and alleys with beautiful old buildings dotted along which open up into gorgeous squares with an old church or a cool statue nearby. You’ll find amazing bars and restaurants with lovely terrace seating all along these streets.

]]>From the outside, this cathedral is incredibly striking and impressive, and things only get better once you enter. Expect gold-embellished doorways, beautifully bright frescoes, ornate carvings, and an impressively high ceiling, all of which join to create a sense of wonder and awe.
The first palatial home of this famous family, and a space in which world-famous artists including Botticelli and Michelangelo have left their mark, this stunning building now functions as a museum that allows visitors to experience the grandeur and glory of this wealthy Florentine family. Each room contains intricate details in the form of paneling, tapestries, frescoes, and carvings, so it’s worth allocating an entire afternoon to exploring this labyrinth of wonders.
This relatively small church is Florence’s oldest basilica, dating back to the mid 1300s. Once inside, keep an eye out for the basilica’s famed stained glass, many of which date back to the 1500s. You can also admire the church’s pulpit, from which Father Tommaso Caccini denounced Galileo’s new theories relating to the cosmos in 1614. Florence truly is a city filled to its brim with history and culture.

]]>Milan was once home to hundreds of canals, but over the years many of these have been filled in and built over. The Navigli district is home to those that remain, and it is a cool area to go and get a drink in one of the waterside bars. Don’t forget to do a little people watching whilst you sip—Milan is all about fashion and style, and you can be sure that others will be noticing what you’re wearing as you drink your negroni or spritz, so pack your freshest clothes for the city.
Having some tasty snacks and a drink to get you in the mood for dinner is a fabulous part of Italian life, and not to be skipped when in Milan. Check out any of the restaurants or trattorias around the Porta Ticinese, as these are well regarded by locals and will serve authentic, high quality food.
Milan’s cathedral is its most important landmark. Work began on the structure in the 14th century, and it is majestic and impressive both inside and out. Don’t miss the opportunity to climb to the viewing platforms, as the panoramas over the city and beyond are truly stunning.

]]>Alfama is Lisbon’s oldest and quirkiest neighborhood. With winding cobbled streets full of charm and character, this is the perfect place to spend the morning getting lost and soaking up the atmosphere.
After your stroll, take a bus to Belem for the best Portuguese custard tarts (pasteis de nata) you’ve ever tasted. Made using an ancient monastic recipe, no trip to Lisbon is complete without tasting these delicious buttery treats.
Now it’s time for some culture. Head to the National Tile Museum to learn about the history of the azulejo, the distinctive tiles that are a big part of what makes Lisbon such a beautiful city. With tiles from the 15th century to the present day, this exquisite collection is the most important in the country.
If you want to eat amongst the chic Lisbon locals, O Velho Eurico is the place to go. This trendy eatery serves up traditional Portuguese food with a contemporary twist, washed down with a carafe of crisp vinho verde.

]]>Most big cities have a few big parks or gardens that are accessible by walking or public transport. Going out to the middle of them should get you a fair distance away from the noise, and no one will be trying to bother you or pushing past you in a rush. If you’re in a more dangerous area, though, try not to be there alone at night.
Again, most cities have a public library will plenty of space for reading and studying. And since it’s the library, quiet is required. They generally aren’t crowded, and they’re usually set up with a few desks in secluded corners where you can get away from others.
The one downside to museums is that they often cost an entrance fee, although many cities do have some free museums in an effort to make arts and culture accessible. In a museum there’s usually a mandate of respectful hush, and they’re usually clean and spacious which should help with feelings of claustrophobia.

]]>Some cities have strict restrictions and their museums, public transport, and restaurants are working under special conditions, which makes it more difficult and less relaxed to visit them. In other cities, there are no restrictions, but many people simply don’t want to go to crowded places right now. City breaks are getting postponed for next year and travelers are using the pandemic as an opportunity to visit remote places and enjoy nature where there aren’t so many people.
Until the situation gets better, use this time to explore the place you live in and the surrounding nature. You’ll be surprised by some things you’ll discover, and we all hope that there will soon be a better time for traveling the world. All the amazing cities will be there waiting for you once this is all over.

]]>No matter how cozy your hotel room is, you won’t be able to cover a lot of ground if you stay in bed until noon.
Planning is everything when it comes to short trips. If you come prepared, you won’t waste your time deciding where you want to go and what you want to see.
Weekend getaways give you just enough time to check out a new city, but planning day-trips to nearby attractions is off the cards.
Accommodation on the outskirts may be cheaper, but it’s important to stay where the action is. Always opt for a place in close proximity to tourist attractions you want to see.
If you’re planning to visit an extremely popular museum, castle or theme park during your trip, keep in mind you’ll probably spend hours waiting in a line, and decide for yourself if it’s worth the wait.

Build a tour day and visit a few of the many cathedrals in Cologne, including the main cathedral in the city, as well as Gross St. Martin, and the Shrine of the Three Kings. If you need a break, drop into the Cologne Chocolate Museum.
