To start, you can go to the Flavian Amphitheater and relive the gladiator years. Next, the Roman Forum will introduce you to sights such as the Temple of Saturn and the Arch of Titus. If you're feeling hungry, you and your loved one can stroll around the Campo de' Fiori, where farmers and fishermen go to sell their fresh fruit and catch of the day. Of course, Italians are also famous for their amazing cuisine, so you can stay in a friendly tavern and enjoy a delicious pasta or a real Italian pizza.
2. Paris, France
You can't plan a romantic weekend getaway in Europe without Paris in mind. Paris is a must-see destination, and the food here is the envy of Europe. Start by going to the Eiffel Tower and then picnicking in a nearby meadow. Afterwards, explore the city and visit the Arc de Triomphe and Jardin des Tuileries. If you have a sweet tooth, don't forget to visit Ladue, which is a great place to try some Parisian speci alties such as macarons and other global delicacies.
3. London, England
London is an extremely charming city and doesn't get the attention it deserves when it comes to romantic destinations. Walking around Westminster Abbey and listening to the chimes of Big Ben is one of the most romantic things a couple in love can experience. Walking around London, the two of you will feel like you're in a real fairy tale.
4. Madrid, Spain
Madrid is a charming city that has all the ingredients for a romantic getaway. If you're an enthusiast, you won't want to do anything other than stroll the halls of the Prado Museum, which has one of the richest collections in the world. If you want to feel like a "Madrileno", visit the Puerta del Sol square, which is considered the cultural center of the city.
5. Venice, Italy
This iconic city is known for its riverside streets as well as its romantic side. Take the gondola with your loved one and take part in the tradition of kissing under each bridge you pass. Stroll around Piazza San Marco and admire the beautiful architecture of the nearby Basilica di San Marco. Don't forget to take a boat ride on the Grand Canal, which is the main waterway in Venice. This whole bustling city can be seen from here and it is a wonderful sight and an unforgettable romantic experience.
6. Prague, Czech Republic
To continue the theme of castles and cobbled streets, here we have Prague. Perhaps one of the most beautiful cities in Eastern Europe, Prague has many buildings dating back to the 13th century and beyond. One look at the Old Town building and you'll know you've chosen the right place for a romantic getaway.
7. Amsterdam, Netherlands
Amsterdam is known as the "Venice of the North" because of the abundance of canals it has. Just like Venice, you can take advantage of these canals and go on a romantic boat ride. However, Amsterdam is a big city compared to Venice. If you and your loved one are up for an adventure, just walk around and enjoy the beauty of the city. You might get lost, but it will be a wonderful experience!
