Qingdao

Qingdao is possibly the most beautiful coastal city in China, famous for comfortable weather, a large number of beaches and delicious seafood. A former German concession, it boasts charming European-style architecture and is home to Qingdao Beer, one of Asia’s most celebrated brews. Long a favourite among Chinese holidaymakers, Qingdao gained international attention during the Beijing Olympics and is now increasingly popular with foreign visitors seeking a unique mix of seaside relaxation and cultural heritage.

Malaga

Malaga might not be as popular as other Spanish cities, but a quick visit to the birthplace of Pablo Picasso is enough to win any visitor's heart. With a great mix of ancient history and modern culture, nearly 3,000 hours of sunshine a year, and several kilometres of beach, it's quite easy to see why Malaga has been described as 'Paradise City'.

Paris

Few cities match the iconic status that Paris holds in the imagination of travellers. In fashion, gastronomy, and the arts, she is queen. As you wander through the different quartiers of the City of Light, her moods shift from gritty to sophisticated, from haute couture to underground. There is always something new to discover here beyond the legendary sights and museums. Paris has a way of getting under your skin, feeling instantly familiar as you lose yourself in her hypnotic streets and linger at her cafés.

Luxembourg

Luxembourg, with its modest 1000 square mile area, holds many unexpected treasures. From UNESCO-recognised medieval fortifications to the prized Moselle wines, a lively arts scene, cutting-edge architectural marvels, and influential EU institutions, this tiny European country has something for everyone. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy skiing on the excellent slopes of the northern Ardennes and exploring the scenic trails of the Valley of Seven Castes or Mullerthal with its unique sandstone formations.

Le Cap d'Agde Méditerranée, France

Autumn and winter colours

Discover the destination with all the gorgeous colours of autumn, it is also a place worth discovering.

Idre

For several months of the year, Idre is covered in winter snow and ice, which allows visitors to make the most of everything the cold season has to offer: from frozen lakes and snow-covered forests to cross-country trails, skiing slopes, and snowmobile trails. During summer, numerous outdoor activities are also possible. In-between adventures, you can recharge your batteries in one of Idre's picturesque restaurants, cafés and pubs.

Lille

Over a decade ago, Lille was awarded the European Capital of Culture title, marking not its pinnacle but rather the start of its journey. In the years since, it has established itself as a premier cultural destination, rivalling any other in northern France and, according to some, beyond. Once a thriving commercial hub in French Flanders, Lille still exudes a strong Flemish character, both in its cuisine and the ornate buildings of its charming Old Town.

Athens

One of Europe's Ancient capitals, Athens has undergone significant change in recent years. A modern metropolis with an old town feel, this is where antiquity meets futurism, and ancient monuments fuse with a trendy, cosmopolitan scene. Plaka neighbourhood is the heart of its historical centre, with labyrinthine streets leading to all manner of ancient wonders.
