Hundreds of millions of tourists flock to Europe every year, yet many of the continent’s cities remain in relative obscurity. Below are some of the most underrated cities in Europe:
- Maribor, Slovenia. Featuring stunning architecture, the city often remains in the shadow of Slovenia’s more popular destination, Ljubljana. Maribor houses the largest grapevine in the world and maintains numerous spas to help visitors relax.
- Split, Croatia. The coastal town maintains numerous attractions for travelers. Visitors to the city can enjoy a variety of dining, shopping, and nightlife experiences or explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Diocletian’s Palace.
- Ferrara, Italy. Surrounded by ancient walls, the city is packed with cathedrals and palaces that date to the 14th and 15th centuries. Thanks to the broad streets, visitors can easily stroll through the city as they explore.
- Vézelay, France. This ancient city was built on a hilltop in the 11th century. Due to its location, Vézelay has awe-inspiring views. The city is also the home of the Shrine of Mary Magdalene.
