Hemmed in by mountains and lush swathes of pine and cypress forest, Cavtat is pretty from all angles. Add a seafront promenade lined with fishing boats, artisan shops, and pebble beaches, and it’s clear why travellers stop off at Croatia’s southernmost resort.

The moody, romantic Scottish Highlands start at Loch Lomond just north of Glasgow. Comprising a slew of mountain ranges, this sparsely populated land is best seen by train on the West Highland Line. Mountains, lochs, bright heather and rhododendrons give way to white sand beaches and rugged coves as the train nears Mallaig. For a more active take on the region, hike the West Highland Way or visit the Trossachs National Park. Ben Nevis, a popular climbing spot, looms over the town of Fort William.

馬德里的建築猶如城堡一樣，置身這裡像是身處童話故事之中。建有白色樑柱和充滿新哥德式特色的市政廳，也顯得富麗堂皇。立即展開建築自由行之旅，先從中央太陽門廣場 (Puerta del Sol) 雄偉的巨熊雕像出發，然後到美麗的皇家宮殿 (Royal Palace) 參觀，再前往 Retiro Park 欣賞自然美景。最後當然不少得要參觀當地的博物館，漫步細賞。每天行程結束後，請以美味的西班牙海鮮燉飯和西班牙風味酒，作為完美結幕。

The past runs deep in Cadiz, where cobbled medieval streets spill out into whitewashed Spanish plazas and Roman ruins. As one of Europe’s oldest cities, it has the feel of an urban island, marked almost entirely by beaches and ultramarine harbours dotted with fishing boats.

East meets West in this sun-soaked state, where Indian culture intertwines with Portuguese influences left over from a 500-year occupation. The beaches have long served as a magnet for serene hedonists. To the north, the tourist-centric scene is prevalent, with an international flair that is now skewing more hip than hippie. Travel south for stretches of unspoiled sand and an escape from large resorts. Temples, mosques and wildlife sanctuaries provide diversions from the beach.
