Europe has a beautiful collection of beauty spots, adventurous pockets, romantic get-aways and travellers favouites, it's hard to narrow the the best places to see in Europe into just 10.

Here is the Euro top 10;

1. Amsterdam (the Netherlands) - It's hard to avoid the addiction of Amsterdam, everyone is heading here at the moment, with good reason, the Dutch have set up a tolerating, fun and amusing little tourists attraction here. It's not all bars and saucy shows though, take in the beauty the city has to offer, the place to visit is definatly the Brouwersgracht canal.

2. Rome (Italy) - Is there anything better than sipping vino by the colosseo? nope, didn't think so! Rome has it all; great food, people, art, entertainment, fashion and more. To really absorb the culture, head to one of the many piazzas, littered across the enchanting city. My favourite place here is, of course, the colosseo, there is a little bar overlooking it called 'the Royal art cafe restuarant' you get great service here and amazing food, not to mention it offers some of the best views of the colosseo. Check it out by night when it's at it's most spectacular (less tourists too).

3. Paris (France) - It's impossible to visit Europe and neglect Paris. Home of the Eiffel Tower and many other historical buildings and arts, Paris is the city of the lovers. I recommend visiting Notre Dame, as here is where you get to see the most gorgeous areas of Paris.

4. Barcelona (Spain) - This Spanish city is vibrant, daring and chic, a true cosmopolitan city. Whether you're walking the beaches or the boulevards, it's hard not to feel relaxed and calm. Cover as much ground as possible as you won't want to miss a single detail of this magical city.

5. London (U.K) - The centre of London is where you really want to be, with Big Ben, the London Eye and other huge attractions, London is bubbling with youth and fun. Although, the history the city offers can easily match the shopping and modern entertainment. My favourite place here is, without a doubt, Oxford Street, the best shopping location in all of Europe, in my opinion.

6. Dublin (Ireland) - Ohh, the Irish, you can't not love the Irish, with their cheery accents and fun-loving attitudes you can fall into the culture very quickly. Ireland is a very small Island off of the U.K. and offers a completely different culture than the British. Check out the various bars here, the Irish no how to drink!

7. Florence (Italy) - One of Europe's small but great cities, a living museum, a showcase of good taste with lessons that can be absorbs without study. Make sure you pay a visit to the city's most familiar landmark; The Duomo, a Cathedral.

8. Berlin (Germany) - Go visit the jolly Germans, this lot is always up for a bit of fun, welcoming to tourists and travellers, they'll generally be more than happy to give you a tour or at least point you in the right direction. Definatly visit Germany for the Germans. The city is beautiful and traditional.

9. Athens (Greece) - Other than the perfect climate, the Greek capital has alot going for it, charming villages surround the city and are worth a look. The Greeks know how to party and are very family-orientated, so it's a good one for the family holidays. Spend your time soaking up the rays on one of the many beaches or relax, drinking wine in a remarkable restuarant.

10.Cornwall (England) - It attracts surfing tourists by the thousands every year, Cornwall also gets the best of the English weather. Go here, learn how to surf and take a look round the cute pubs and restuarants. A fish 'n' chips classic.
