Canal Walks
Amsterdam is famous for its extensive canal network. Many people travel via these routes by boat or bicycle, but a simple walk is a great way to take in Amsterdam at your own pace and see lots of the fascinating architecture that makes this city so special.
Anne Frank House
The impact of World War Two on Amsterdam was profound, and the Anne Frank House is one site that encapsulates this. This is the site where Anne Frank wrote her diary, and has made a permanent mark on global history. Visiting the house can be a very emotional experience, but is worth seeing if you only have a short time in Amsterdam.

]]>Musée de la Vie Romantique
Located in a former hotel at the foot of Montmartre in Paris’s 9th arrondissement, this small museum is a great escape when Paris becomes overwhelming. It’s one of Paris’s three literary museums, home of the possessions of French writer George Sand, paintings by Ary Scheffer, and sculptures from Bartholdi and James Pradier.
Petit Palais
Also called the Musée des Beaux Arts de la Ville de Paris, the Petit Palais isn’t actually as small as the name would suggest. Built for Paris’ 1900 World Fair Plus, the Petit Palais holds art dating from the Middle Ages through the Modern Art movement, and the building itself is a work of art. Plus, best of all, it’s free!
Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature
One of Paris’s most unique museum’s name translates to Museum of Hunting and Nature. Its roof is made of owl feathers and that’s just the beginning of what makes it so special.

]]>One of the most interesting things about the building is that it was design to mimic the internal mechanisms of a watch. The museum holds around 300 watches and is organized in a way that allows visitors to see the collection in the best order. The collection includes a vintage watch with more than 1,100 parts made in 1899. Around it, you can see other astronomical watches arranged like planets in a solar system.
The museum is located in a remote valley in the Jura Mountains. BIG got assigned the project in 2014 and the museum was finally open in June 2020. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide panoramic views of the beautiful nature around the museum building. The architects from BIG are already working on a nearby hotel together with the watchmaker in hope to attract more tourists to the area.

Make sure to write it down while visiting! 
Preradovićeva Street 8. #zagreb #adventuzagrebu #hangoversmuseum #hangover #museumThis unique place features rooms full of objects collected by people with hangovers. The aftermath of a drunken night is not a joke, but it can still get pretty hilarious. The museum holds things like abandoned wedding dresses, random receipts, and everything in between.
Visit Museum of Hangovers in Preradovićeva Street 8 #exhibition #smuggling #book #prohibitionThere are also a few interactive exhibitions that allow you to try beer goggles or to share your hangover stories. A gift shop offers many booze-related souvenirs you can take home. As the person behind this quirky museum, Rino Dubokovic, says, its purpose is not to glorify drinking, but to save fun stories of time spent with friends. The museum’s plans for the future include warnings of over-drinking.

]]>If you are a lover of art, Madrid is one of the top destinations on Earth to explore some of history’s most impressive works.
Madrid has a “holy trinity” of art museums which are considered to be world-class: the Prado, the Reina Sofia, and the Thyssen-Bornemisza.
First, the Museo Nacional del Prado is probably the most famous of Madrid’s art museums. This museum is massive and hosts one of the world’s finest collections of European art. It spans a large range of history, from the 12th century up until the 1900s.
Located here are works from artists such as Diego Velazquez, Hieronymous Bosch, and El Greco. “Las Meninas” by Velazquez is one of the top pieces located here.
Next, let’s take a look at the Reina Sofia Museum. Located in an old hospital, this museum focuses on Spanish art from the 20th century. As we all know, Spanish masters such as Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali produced world-class work such as Picasso’s “Guernica,” which is on display here.
Finally, the Thyssen-Bornemisza has a varied collection of art from mainly European and American figures. It hosts a treasure trove of Italian Baroque art, as well as works from impressionists such as Monet and van Gogh.
Any art lover should have Madrid at the top of their travel list for the opportunity to see these three fantastic museums.
