4- PORTUGAL: Small but mighty, Spain's neighbor has
a distinct culture, cuisine, and language. In the summer, head
to the western village of Comporta, Portugal's answer to
Ibiza. And no trip to the country is complete without
a glass of port wine from the Douro Valley.
5-NETHERLANDS: Forget why 20-somethings flock here
. Go to Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and other crannies of this
gorgeous country for the incredible museums,
unparalleled coffee, and stunning countrysides. We suggest
splurging on a stay at the newly built Waldorf Astoria —
a collection of six townhouses with a Guerlain Spa — on
Amsterdam's oldest and most storied canal.
6-ITALY: Who can resist the call of pasta and
beautiful people? Not many, according to the CNT
readers, who've voted for Italy as the world's best
country to travel for five straight years. Italy is all
about leisure — sip wine for hours in
Venice's Piazza San Marco, make friends with
a hammock on a villa in Tuscany, or sunbathe on
the cliffs of Riomaggiore.
7-GREECE: CNT named Athens, Greece, one of
its cities to watch in 2015. In the midst of
a financial disaster , a spate of new museums, hip
hotels and shops, and pop-ups are spurring a
cultural renaissance in the capital city . For travelers,
the turquoise waters and salty air of Mykonos will
always be a draw.
