If the other day we talked about the destinations of tourist interest in Spain, in this case we have to talk about those from all over Europe. The TripAdvisor selection It is ideal to make a list with places that we have to see yes or yes. Surely some of you have already passed, but others will be pending to add to the list.
From the mosque of Córdoba to the Eiffel Tower, the places that we are going to show you are known all over the world. If you haven't been to them yet, you have to meet them at least once in your life. We need such a list to cross out the important tourist sites that we have visited, and surely we will have many more to add.
Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba
La Great Mosque of Cordoba it is a monument that everyone should visit. It is first in the ranking of the places that we must visit in Spain and also in Europe. And it certainly deserves a position like this. One of the largest mosques in the world where we can visit many interesting corners, especially the recommended hypostyle room, with its columns and arches. A vestige of Andalusian architecture in our country.
St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican
This basilica located in the Vatican City is one of the largest basilicas in Rome. In it we can see most of the papal ceremonies and for this reason it has great importance, although the seat of the pope is that of San Juan de Letrán. Works like the Pieta of Michelangelo they are inside. Without a doubt when we arrive in Rome we will go directly to the Colosseum, but we must not forget the Vatican, its museums and the basilica.
Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood in Saint Petersburg
This long-named church is the most important Orthodox church in Russia. It was built in the same place where Tsar Alexander II was assassinated. It is a church richly decorated in mosaics, both inside and out, with domes covered with scenes and many shades of gold. We will be surprised by the great color of this church if we compare it with the sobriety that usually exists in European churches, where darker and more discreet tones are used. Of course it is a temple that surprises a lot.
Plaza de España in Seville
The Plaza de España in Seville is a place of great beauty, located next to the María Luisa park. A large square with buildings around it that can be visited at any time of the day, although in the morning it is quieter. If we like a lively atmosphere, it is better in the afternoon. We can see its semicircular structure with old buildings and banks decorated with tiles that represent the provinces of Spain.
Milan Cathedral
Milan Cathedral is a gothic style cathedral, which is noted by that feeling of altitude that exists in Gothic works. Construction began in the fourteenth century but it was not finished until the twentieth century. You can visit its interior, and under the Duomo you can see archaeological excavations of the remains of the old Cathedral of Santa Tecla.
Paris eiffel tower
We continue with another of those monuments that everyone has wanted to see at some time. In Paris there is much to visit, from the Louvre to the Champs Elysees, the Arc de Triomphe or the Notre Dame Cathedral, but the jewel in the crown remains the Torre Eiffel. This tower can be visited although you almost always have to queue. You take an elevator to reach the upper floors and have a panoramic view of the city of Paris.
Parliament of Budapest
This great parliament has almost 700 rooms inside, and it is a large work. Inside you can see the Dome Room with statues of kings and the old upper house, which seems a place used for political purposes, but the truth is that it is only tourist. But it is what we imagine a parliament will be on the inside.
Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris
Notre Dame Cathedral is another essential visit in Paris. Is Gothic cathedral It has a beautiful facade, but you also have to enjoy its interior and the view from the sides, with the flying buttresses that support the structure and add lightness to the whole. Inside we will see a tall, impressive nave with beautiful stained glass windows.
Big Ben in London
Big Ben is the tower of the Westminster Palace clock, one of the emblems of London, that without a doubt everyone wants to visit. One of the best views is from the bridge across the Thames, to walk to Parliament.
Acropolis of Athens
This Greek acropolis preserves many of its buildings. The Parthenon is the most important, but there are many others that we can find on a visit to the ancient Greek city, from the Temple of Athena Nike to the Erechtheion.
