Alexander III Bridge, Paris
As worshippers attend services in St Petersburg, Londons nightlife gets under way and Parisian bakers will soon be rolling the days first croissants. Europe might be dwarfed by other continents but what it lacks in size it makes up for in diversity, depth and history.
From the Italian Renaissance to the Industrial Revolution, Europe has shaped the modern world. But it hasnt neglected the little pleasures in life such as chocolate, whisky and perfume. Whatever your passion, you can feed it somewhere in Europe.
In the last fifteen years or so, our travel habits have changed profoundly. Short on time, hungry for new experiences, we have embraced the long weekend break. The boom of the internet and the European Open Skies Treaty created ideal conditions for low-cost air travel. No longer did you have to book an expensive flight to a national hub and then travel onward, now you could fly direct to cities like Seville, Tallinn or Naples.
Today, about 70 low-cost airlines operate across Europe, from Scandinavia to Spain. They sell e-tickets online, with prices varying according to demand. Train travel has also pressed the fast-forward button with high-speed links between European cities becoming much more widespread.
The purpose of this book is to help you plan your next weekend in Europe, and the next and the next... It will spark ideas, champion some of Europes less obvious destinations
