ATHENS As thriving of a metropolis as ever, visitors say that the golden age of Athens is not yet over. Inhabited since the Neolithic Age, this capital of Greece and unofficial historical capital of Europe is a destination with neighborhoods of unhurried stillness and exciting whirlwinds. For instance, Psiri is a designated nightlife neighborhood, where craftsmen and boutiques call by day and ouzeries and bars bustle by night. Wealthy Kolonaki Square’s cafés and high-end shopping delights, and the Thission neighborhood—between Phillipapou Hill and the world-famous Acropolis—features tavernas, more cafés, and restaurants. Not to be forgotten is the shopping avenue of Ermou Street, part of the largest pedestrian zone in all of Europe, starting behind Syntagma Square. Here, sunny days can be lost among international brands and authentic Greek goods, making for a wonderful place for visitors to begin their journeys into the past. Archeological sites in this cradle of Western civilization number over 100, with the most emblematic being the Acropolis, followed by the Theater of Herod Atticus, Theater of Dionysius, the Ancient Agora, and the sacred Erechtheion, where the original olive tree the goddess Athena gifted her city stands. No less impressive are the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian’s Arch, the Parliament, and Zappeion, all spreading south of the Vasilissis Sofias. Near the National Garden, the Panathinaiko Olympic Stadium, originally constructed in 330 bce and rebuilt for the first modern Olympic Games, is a monumental testament to the longstanding architectural traditions of Greece. Farther afield is Delphi, where the mysticism of its oracle tradition feels as deep-seated and natural as the trade of the region’s cheeses and olives. Athens | 53

MYKONOS & SANTORINI Part of the most famous chain of the Greek Islands, the Cyclades, Mykonos and Santorini are perhaps the most well-known of the land masses that form a protective circle around the sacred island of Delos, the birthplace of Apollo. Millions of the country’s natives join tourists from around the world to pay tribute to two of the most spectacular views in the world —whitewashed walls and cerulean roofs of these seaside havens are as iconic as the Acropolis itself. Mykonos provides a lively counterpart to its quiet, dreamy sister. Nicknamed the “Island of the Winds,” surfers, windsurfers, sailors, jet skiers, and scuba divers make the most of sparkling white beaches before cooling off on land. Breezes from the oft-photographed Kato Myli windmills and passing Vespas create a calm by day, while after dark, a lush nightlife just minutes from the 18 century mansions of Alefkántra, the island’s “Little Venice,” sends th music reverberating through the streets. Brand-name stores and trendy cafés make the capital town of Hora a favorite of jet-setters, as well as aficionados of Cycladic architecture. Revelry of a different tone can be found in melodious Santorini. Having achieved renown as a destination for two, it’s a place where magical moments come alive and reality is suspended. Every corner is spotlessly tranquil, from white, festive red, black, and pebbled beaches that touch impossibly blue seas to narrow, lovingly-swept alleys. As a destination that naturally lends itself to flights of fancy, it’s no surprise that the youngest volcanic crescent of islands in the Eastern Mediterranean was once thought by Jacques Cousteau to be part of the lost city of Atlantis. Countless galleries, 250 churches, and the celebrated Jazz Festival provide even more opportunities to press pause. 56 | Mykonos & Santorini

CRETE & RHODES “Mild” is often used to describe the climate of the southernmost Greek islands between Africa, Europe, and Asia Minor, but “bold” is the right word for the natural beauty of Crete, the largest island in Greece, and sun-soaked, seafaring Rhodes. Long beaches spread across the feet of rugged mountains, hidden coves, and astonishing gorges, to open up to an iridescent Aegean Sea, while olive groves and vineyards sprawl into the horizon—an island so lovely that the Titan goddess Rhea chose Crete as the sanctuary for her infant Zeus. The soul of the land is an old one, dating back to 6000 bce as the former center of the Minoan civilization, regarded as the oldest recorded in Europe. Poetry and music flow as freely here as the juices from the citrons that dot its hills. Marks of Byzantine and Ottoman craftsmen, Arabia, Venice, and Rome can still be seen across Crete’s four prefectures, from luxurious Rethymno to touristic Heraklion, the Gulf of Mirabello’s Lasithi, and Venetian Chania. Although Rhodes lives up handsomely to its patron god, Helios, this island in the most sun-drenched sector of Greece also cherishes its deep-seated roots. Here is where the Sound and Light Festival is held, a celebration of the medieval history of the “Island of Knights.” In the Old City, walls out of the Middle Ages loom tall, as seven gates stand proudly around this UNESCO World Heritage Site, its cobblestoned Street of the Knights one of the best preserved in Europe. Just beyond, the “New City” features Venetian, neoclassical, and modern architecture, as well as Rodíni Park, rumored to have been the location of the School of Rhetoric, where Julius Caesar, Cassius, Pompey, and Marc Anthony all studied. At the northern end of the island, the Ancient Acropolis of Rhodes slowly ages above breathtaking views. Even more famous than these historic sites are the beaches—curving bays, soft sands, and azure water as far as the eye can see. Crete & Rhodes | 59

MADRID In the center of the Iberian Peninsula lies the heart of Spain—its capital, Madrid. A city of passion, the architecture, music, dance, and art stir the soul like a tempest. The internationally celebrated Prado Museum is where travelers can find some of the very best of the latter, displaying masterpieces by Raphael, Rubens, Bosch, and Goya. If the largest art museum in Spain isn’t enough, there are more than 60 others to visit, many along the Paseo del Arte, including the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, which showcases over 800 paintings. The mucha marcha, or “lively spirit,” local Madrileños are known for is perhaps never so apparent as at a flamenco restaurant like the old El Corral de la Morer’a, where the sultry, sensual dance continues to flourish…unless one happens to visit the Alonso Martinez, Huertas, or Santa Ana districts at night, where discotecas and pubs keep dancers of all types on their feet. Upmarket restaurants, terrazas, and tapas and wine bars provide a different vibe in Castellana, Cava Baja, and Malasaña.

BARCELONA Cosmopolitan, chic, and more than a little Gaudí, the capital of Catalonia is a unique city that is unabashedly proud to be itself. Catalan Spanish flows smoothly from lips with a distinctive accent, as tapas, paellas, jamon iberico, regional fish, sausage, olives, and wine are raised up to them. Eyes, on the other hand, can’t help but be lifted to the skies, following the lines of Modernist master Antoni Gaudí’s architectural designs, from Casa Mila to the still-under-construction La Sagrada Familia—a neo-Gothic–Modernist wonder—and UNESCO World Heritage works such as the fantastically bizarre Güell Park and eerie Casa Batlló. Art Nouveau and Modernism aren’t the only movements to sweep through the streets of Barcelona. In the only city to have ever won the RIBA Royal Gold Medal for its architecture, Roman, Romanesque, and Gothic designs bring an old world feel to districts like tree-lined l’Eixample and Ciutat Vella, and to world-famous Las Ramblas. This wide boulevard guides visitors to the entrance of historic Barrio Gótico—the original city site founded by Romans, featuring medieval palaces, gourmet restaurants, and jazz venues—and leads to the Port Vell Harbor, a popular cruise port with waterfront eateries and easy access to the golden beach of Barceloneta. The Mediterranean sun is a joy on the shore, but with Montjuic overlooking the city; two soccer teams; 68 gorgeous parks; endless meticulously maintained streets; high-end shopping on the Avinguda Diagonal; and local food at renowned La Boqueria, there’s more to see beyond the sprawling beaches. At night, the boulevards come alive with bohemian nightlife in Barrio de Gràcia, trendy venues in El Raval, sleek wine bars, beer halls in the University area, and nightclubs to dance in until sunrise. 64 | Barcelona

ANDALUSIA In the southern region of Spain, it’s easy to imagine the caravans of royals and Romani making their seasonal progress from the Mediterranean seaside through groves of oranges and olives. In the dust of one of the only semi-deserts in Europe, the Tabernas, one can picture them making camp and making merry to the sounds of flamenco and poured sherry. It was from here, this land of 300 days of sunshine, that Christopher Columbus departed for the New World— and where visitors can find a taste of the old one. Provincial towns, exotic Moorish influence, towering mountains, and fantastical beaches are all part of the journey when visitors escape to Andalusia. The capital of the region, Seville, lures visitors to the western boundaries with views of the River Guadalquivir below. Two UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Alcazar Palace—one of the best examples of Mudejar architecture—and the Cathedral, which houses the tomb of Christopher Columbus in the depths of its 12 century mosque foundations, are another draw. In Granada, the exotic architecture reaches even th greater heights with the Moorish masterpiece the Alhambra, another UNESCO World Heritage Site, and one that lights the hilltop of La Sabica in a golden glow before the Sierra Nevada. To the south, the Costa del Sol’s Malaga and Marbella live up to their sunny name, with Blue Flag beaches as stunning as any skyscraping creations of man. In the city of Marbella, an exclusive haven for the European elite, nightlife glitters as much as the sea and delectable cuisine dazzles, but differently than the inland province of Cordoba’s does. There, the Mediterranean diet reigns, fitting hand in hand with this countryside port city’s love of gardening. Effusions of plant life bring vibrancy to squares such as La Plaza del Potro, only minutes from the Great Mosque, Mezquita, Alcazar fortress, and medieval Jewish Quarter. 66 | Andalusia

MALLORCA Whether one knows the largest island in the Balearic Islands as Mallorca or Majorca, it’s a sure thing that visitors know of it as among the most captivating destinations in the Mediterranean. Even Iberian royalty agrees; to this day, members of the family still spend their summers at Marivent Palace, sailing their yachts and living our dreams. However, the island and its capital, popular cruise port Palma, are not exclusive to those with blood as blue as the water beyond its shores. It’s its general appeal that has earned it the titles of second-best island in Europe and sixth best in the world. Catalan and Spanish both, like nearby Barcelona, it’s just as much of a melting pot as that major city. Case in point: over 2,400 restaurants; stunning Gothic and Moorish architecture; artists and musicians in residence; gorgeous old towns; and nightlife in Magaluf that gives Ibiza stiff competition. For wildlife of a different sort, seek adventure in its UNESCO World Heritage mountain range or off its many beaches. Trust us—you’ll find it.

Berlin, the country’s largest city and capital, is a destination that boasts all of the above. History buffs revel in walking the Unter den Linden, a pathway from royal residencies that leads from the Brandenburg Gate to the Schlossbrücke in Old Berlin; or on “Ku‘damm,” where fantastic shopping on Fasanenstraße provides plenty of diversion, as do the City Castle and a royal hunting lodge.

Grand European tradition is at its best here; to visit Austria is to take a step back into a glorious era of august gentility. In Vienna, coffeehouse culture is as alive and well today as it was during Sigmund Freud’s time. The celebrated Viennese Philharmonic, performers at the Vienna State Opera House, and the Vienna Boys’ Choir, a 500-year-old Austrian legacy, still pay homage to the songs of the golden age of Mozart, Shubert, Liszt, Strauss, and Bruckner, composers whose works lead the feet of waltzers during the lavish balls held annually for 200 years. The Lipizzaner horses canter to their own dances at the Spanish Riding School, located in the Imperial Palace grounds of the powerful Habsburg royal family, not far from the 150-year-old Ringstraße, a circular boulevard marked with architecturally striking museums, palaces, parks, and restaurants serving cuisine ubiquitous to the city, from wiener schnitzel and tafelspitz to the Linzer torte, apfelstrudel, croissants, sachertorte, and other pastries that influenced the patisseries of France.

Timeless as it is, the tradition of keeping time is still treasured in Switzerland. The cuckoo clock was invented here, which has since evolved into upmarket watches that epitomize prestige.

ROMANIA SERBIA CROATIA BOSNIA-HERZEGOVINA At the crossroads of Central Europe, Hungary is a republic with a glorious past and a resplendent present. Classical music; folkloric dance; hearty paprika-spiked cuisine; and over 1,500 thermal springs and ancient spas are only a few of the contributions this nation has made. However, one of its sweetest legacies is that of confectionery, from marzipan and chocolates to cakes only found in Hungary—an ideal match for the delicious coffee culture that can be traced back to 16th century Turkish occupation. A trendier scene lies in ruin pubs, once-abandoned urban buildings that offer live music and late hours. Its tree-lined UNESCO World Heritage neighborhood Andrássy Avenue certainly calls a notable French flair to mind! In the opposite direction, pedestrian Váci Street provides plenty of shopping, and ends at one of the many bridges that connect lively Pest with the quiet hills of Buda across the Danube. There, the elaborate Fisherman’s Bastion (a perfect perch for that Parliament building photo op) strikes a dramatic pose overlooking the famous Chain Bridge, where lions roar a silent welcome to visitors.

Its dynamic landscape includes glaciers, volcanoes, hot springs, and geysers … but its climate is actually cool, temperate, and surprisingly mild in the winter while refreshing in the summer. A hidden treasure since the days of its discovery by Norwegian explorers, Iceland is a hotbed of surprises—even beyond volcano Eyjafjallajokull and the famous steaming Blue Lagoon. According to legend, the misnomer for this green land was intentional, a deterrent to settlers who might want to intrude on the Vikings’ newfound haven. Now, like a bud unfurling in the spring, it grows ever greater on the consciousness of global travelers as more Americans flock to this country than there are residents. Since 2010, travel to this once virtually unknown destination has erupted like the geysers you’ll find in its Golden Circle, making there no hotter place to explore than Iceland. The northernmost capital of a sovereign state, you’d think that Reykjavik would be a reflection of its untamed geography. However, Iceland is a destination that defies all expectations, and its largest city is no exception. Safe, clean, and green by design. A nightlife that makes the most of the summer’s midnight sun and celestial phenomena that make chill winter evenings magical. Geothermal spas and beaches like the Blue Lagoon and Nautholsvik, set against volcanic craters and forest reserves. For browsing, the second-largest mall in the country and museums, both indoor and open-air. And for adventure … well, look anywhere. There are bike trails and coastlines to zip past, salmon and trout to be fished for, whales and puffins to meet, and horses and cars to take off-road. Because despite its luster and modernity, Reykjavik is still the core of the unharnessed north—wild and free. 84 | Iceland
