Europe Cruise Vacation 2014
7-Night West Mediterranean Cruise from Barcelona, Spain
Rome, Italy
Rome, Italy, seems to have its own gravitational pull, attracting not only millions of tourists each year, but also the most creative artists and thinkers of every era. All that surrounds a visitor in Rome—the stunning art and architecture, the terrible traffic, the grandeur of scale and the lively (almost hyperanimated) citizens—guarantees an unforgettable trip.
Pisa, Italy
Pisa is a lively medieval university town in the Tuscan region of Italy. Although the Leaning Tower (known as the Torre Pendente by locals) is one of the main attractions and the symbol of the city, it is only one of the many beautiful treasures of Pisa. The building of the tower began in 1174 and was completed only in the second half of the 14th century because of repeated yielding of the land under its foundation. In 1990, the instability of the tower made it necessary to close it to visitors, but an extensive program of modern engineering was successful in rebalancing the tower to its original "degree of lean." Today, visitors can climb the 294 steps of the spiral staircase leading up to the belfry at the top.
Monte Carlo and Monaco
Monaco is not so much a country as it is a family project, passed along from one generation to the next. Since 1297, the Grimaldi dynasty has shaped everything from its borders to its image, and it's hard to separate the principality from its principals: When was the last time you read an article about Monaco that didn't fill you in on the latest drama involving the royal family?
