The Wales Millennium Centre was built as a haven for arts and performances. It houses a theatre and several halls, restaurants and shops, hosting live events like plays, operas and concerts on a regular basis. The centre is also the home of various organisations such as the Welsh National Opera, the National Dance Company and the Arts Council of Wales.

Once the heart of the former East Berlin, Alexanderplatz is today the largest inner-city square in Germany and has developed into a popular shopping attraction. The view from the Television Tower, its height of 368 metres making it the tallest tower in Germany, is absolutely fantastic. A perfect 360° all-round view is provided by the revolving restaurant Sphere and Bar 203, making a full turn twice an hour.

Navagio Beach is the defining landmark of Zakynthos. Located on the island's northwestern coast, its dramatic cove is known for the wreck of a freightliner that ran aground in 1983, an event which gave the beach its name — Navagio, Greek for 'shipwreck'. Before this maritime mishap, the beach was known as Agios Georgios. There are two ways to appreciate this miracle of nature. To swim in the turquoise waters and approach the rusty shell of MV Panagiotis, you must travel by boat. For a panoramic birds-eye view, travel by car to a viewing platform high up in the white cliffs.

Berlin is a vast city with not one, but several centres that come in their distinct and varied flavours of cool. The fastest and most time efficient way to hit all the main attractions is to get on one of those hop-on hop-off buses. You can get a 24- or 48-hour ticket, as well as an option to upgrade to a river cruise boat. Buses run every 10–15 minutes. Of course, you get audio commentary in multiple languages, plus a kids' channel.
