Named after the island's shape resembling a curvy woman, Virgin Gorda is home to one of the most popular tourist attractions in the British Virgin Islands. The large granite boulders scattered on the beach are not only spectacular, but also form pools and grottoes for the enjoyment of visitors of all ages.

Sherwood Forest Railway is a real steam railway in miniature which is loved by kids. To make the day even more memorable, visit the adventure play area which is free of charge or have a picnic in the picnic area. Refreshments are also available onsite.

Scattered throughout the Old Town, these twelve churches are among the oldest buildings in Cologne—most of them date back to the 12th and 13th centuries. They’ve all got that heavy Romanesque look, but each one’s a bit different. Great St. Martin stands out with its massive tower right by the river, St. Gereon has got an unusual oval dome, and St. Maria im Kapitol is one of the largest. You don’t need to see all twelve, but stopping in at a couple while you’re exploring the Old Town gives you a good feel for the city’s medieval side.
