]]>Bruges was a major center of trade and culture between the 12th and 15th centuries. The great majority of the city’s medieval architecture remains intact, creating a beautiful gothic cityscape.
San Marino – the only surviving city-state in Italy—sits atop the majestic Monte Titano, which is the highest point in the country. The center of Citta di San Marino is surrounded by a fortress and watchtowers, built between the 11th and 14th centuries.
While it may not look like a typical medieval town, the mountainside village of Monsanto is a historical gem. What makes this town stand out, besides its uniquely Portuguese medieval architecture, are the gigantic boulders that define its landscape. The streets are too narrow for modern vehicles, so the preferred method of transport in Monsanto is walking or riding a donkey.

San Marino, a micronation surrounded entirely by Italy, only has 33,400 residents and is visited by around 60,000 people per year. Mount Titano towers over the rest of the landscape, which is dotted with small towns and charming villages close to the Adriatic coast.
Do you love mountains? If so, it might be worth it for you to join the list of around 70,000 annual visitors to the microstate of Liechtenstein! This tiny country is nestled between Austria and Switzerland and is located entirely within the scenic boundary of the Alps and contains castles and alpine landscapes.
Moldova has an unfair reputation of being drab and gloomy, something that is easily perceived when you see that only around 150,000 people enter its borders for tourism purposes annually. However, Moldova has a thriving wine scene, surviving relics of the Soviet Union, and a true old-world charm.
