Located in the city of Hernani, at a one-hour distance from Bilbao, Chillida-Leku is an open-air museum exposing the works of Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida. More than 40 of his pieces are now on display across 27 acres of land, even material that was previously not available to the public. Plus, a restored farmhouse and an organic café.

The many winding steps of Charlotte Amalie were built in the mid 1700s. The bricks for the steps were brought all the way from Denmark as ballast in the empty hulls of the sailing ships. The picturesque 99 steps attract the most foot traffic and cameras. How could one resist this narrow stairway, adorned with flowers on both sides! The original name if the street can be translated as the Greater Tower Street. The steps lead to the Blackbeard’s Castle — a 17th century watch tower. The tower has been closed to visitors since Hurricanes Irma and Maria, but the view from up above is still stunning.

The Homestead Park in Ängelholm is a family-friendly retreat. With a zoo that highlights native Swedish animals and five museums that spring to life in the summer, there's something for everyone. Young children can play to their heart's content in the expansive playground, while visitors can also delight in summer stage performances, dine at the inn, or treat themselves at the ice-cream stall.

This modern art museum has many permanent collections including works by American artist William Glackens, artists of the northern European CoBrA movement, and contemporary works from more than 90 Cuban artists in exile around the world. Make time for the Picasso ceramics and the Indigo Room.
