A Weekend in Berlin

The German capital is one of the most beautiful in all of Europe to visit in November (and not only!). It is full of monuments that remind us of its troubled history.  This place is well aware of how to conquer the visitors who simply dedicate a single weekend there by harmoniously blending historical places with extraordinary examples of contemporary architecture. It can be an engaging three-day stay full of creativity, fun and shopping.

Berlin was divided for 28 years by the Wall which was an emblem of the Cold War. It has taken its revenge as a true vanguard of the world by becoming the favorite destination for young people thanks to the locals who are, to say the least, astonishing,  and to its truly cosmos environment.

Visiting Berlin for a weekend can be a crazy historical review! It has an ancient foundation but it definitely contains some places which are a must-see: from the remaining parts of the Wall to the Holocaust Memorial; from the imposing Brandenburg Gate which is a  symbol of reunification; and to three must-see buildings such as: the Cattaedrale, the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial and the new Berlin Synagogue.

Among the squares, we suggest visiting the mythical Alexanderplatz which is one of the most famous areas of the capital as well as the Potsdamer. A true pilgrimage destination is: Museumsinsel, the Museum Island where you can admire incredible collections of ancient and modern art preserved in 4 national museums.

The nightlife in Berlin is a must: from the Berghain in Friedrichshain to the Weekend Club of Mitte, the list of underground clubs, alternative nightclubs and pubs is endless and is perfect for a weekend getaway in Berlin.

Amsterdam beyond the "clichés"

Amsterdam is not to be missed among the European capitals to visit in November!
The legendary Dutch city is famous throughout the world for its canals and for being the home of vices and pleasures - from the very popular red-light district to the numerous coffee shops. For some years now, it provides a polished image consisting of art, culture and avant-garde ways of thinking.

If you stay only for a weekend, it is advisable to walk through the streets of the center and the picturesque canals, letting yourself be conquered by the atmosphere of the typical streets.

During your mini holiday in Amsterdam, a visit to the Van Gogh Museum is a must.
It is one of the most beautiful museums in the city which is dedicated to modern and contemporary art. Inside you will find the largest collection of Van Gogh paintings in the world: a real journey into the painter's tormented life which takes us through all of his different emotional stages and allows us to share his vision of the world.

It is located on the Museumsplein which is the square that overlooks all of the museums of the city, from the Rijksmuseum to the Stedelijk Museum and the famous inscription "I amsterdam!”. Taking a selfie there is a must.

Waltzing through Vienna

Vienna is definitely one of the European capitals to visit in November and is perhaps one of the most refined and elegant.

Vienna is magical this time of year and all throughout the winter. It puts thousands of lights and Christmas decorations on display, which begin to decorate the streets of the historical center starting in September. It is very well organized  during the weekends and  is home to countless Christmas markets that will leave you truly ecstatic.

Vienna is also the capital for those who love to eat: an absolute must is the Austrian version of a Milanese cutlet, the "Shnitzel" and the winner is definitely the Sacher cake which originates precisely in this city.

Madrid and Spain that never fades

A few day visti to Madrid is definitely worthwhile in order to fully enjoy its beauty and culture. Among  all of the European capitals that should be visited in November, it is certainly one of the mildest in terms of climate, therefore it permits the tourist to explore it with pleasure.

It must be the unique mix of the avant-garde way of thinking and its tradition, the infinity of daily events, the cosmopolitan atmosphere or its glorious history, the fact is that London never loses its charm and is perfect to visit during every season of the year.
