The isolated and otherworldly Faroe Islands are an archipelago of eighteen wild, lush, and steeply pitched isles buffeted by North Atlantic winds, providing days of memorable adventure and intriguing insight into Denmark's old colonial regions.

The currency is the krone, and both Danish and English are widely spoken.

Germany has exciting cities and a wide range of landscapes, including the North Sea coast and the Alps, never fail to captivate its numerous tourists.

It is ideal to visit Germany at any time but you need to be aware of how the weather changes throughout the year, and therefore tourist attractions and prices, to make sure this doesn’t impede on your plans. The best time to travel to Germany is from April to November.

Croatia was part of Yugoslavia until 1991, and while it was never as isolated as the rest of the Eastern Bloc, it has typically remained off the beaten track for tourists. Today, however, Croatia is not only for adventurous travellers; in fact, the country has emerged as one of Europe’s top new destinations. This should come as no surprise: a vacation to Croatia allows you to experience the Adriatic coast, the major hubs of Zagreb and Dubrovnik, as well as a rich interior that, even today, many tourists miss.

The Adria coast has a short and expensive high season in July and August when the weather is at its best. You could obtain large travel bargains at other times of the year, but you'll lose out on the frenetic thrill of peak season. Away from the coast, hotel costs remain pretty consistent throughout the year. Winter can bring snow, however, it rarely falls near the shore.

Whatever you do, you will be unable to resist the water, which sparkles like a beautiful lady's eyes.

The second-largest city in Croatia offers several first-rate beauties. To begin, Split (pronounced as it is spelt) is located in central Dalmatia on the glistening Adriatic Sea. Its undulating landscape falls down to pebbly beaches and blue seas, with views of nearby islands such as fashionable Hvar. Second, it's seen a lot of history: consider Roman Emperor Diocletian, who began building his palace here in A.D. 295. Despite its historical significance, Split is not mired in the past. For example, its labyrinthine medieval palace now houses buzzy bars, exciting restaurants, and stylish boutiques.

Split is a fantastic place to visit all year, but the ideal time to travel in Split is from May to October. However, June and September are better months than July and August since the temperature is hot and there are a lot of visitors around in July and August.

Bordeaux, a tiny port city in southern France, is best known as a wine lover's heaven. Even if you aren't here for the wine, a visit to Bordeaux is worthwhile since it is a lovely city with a plethora of fascinating things to do in the surrounding region.

The best time to visit Bordeaux is between June and August when most French and other Europeans visit. Come in the spring or fall for fewer crowds and reduced prices. One disadvantage of visiting in the autumn is that vineyards begin harvesting in September, and some do not accept visitors. While it might get cold, a visit to Bordeaux in December is quite Christmas-festive.

Silkeborg is well-known for its festivals. The Jazz Festival, which takes place every year and lasts four days, is one of them. The city is alive with music these days, which can be heard from the depths of the performance hall while going down the street from the restaurant or simply resting on the park's meadows. There is also a well-known fireworks festival, which has been conducted every three years since 1899.

Munich, Germany's most costly city, is also quite attractive — and it's possible that it's because of this dual nature that visitors find it so appealing. Although Munich is home to the country's 200-year-old bacchanalia, Oktoberfest, it is also a contemporary city, serving as the unofficial European capital of publishing and technology. The city is surrounded by natural beauty, nestled between the Bavarian Alps and the River Isar, but its streets are also dotted with man-made marvels, such as designer boutiques and flashy BMWs. In a nutshell, you should go for provincialism as well as progressiveness.

The greatest time to visit Munich is from March to May when the throngs of the fall have long ago dispersed and the peak season of the summer has yet to arrive. However, if you're one of the millions planning to attend Oktoberfest, you'll need to bring a coat. The average temperature is between the 40s and the 50s Fahrenheit. In the summer, a light sweater is appropriate for Munich's slightly cold nights. Temperatures remain in the 70s, making it excellent biergarten weather. Except for the holiday months of December and January, winter is primarily a low season in this city.
