Top ten places to visit in Europe

the Abbey of Westminster is worthwhile to visit.

Other places of interest are the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, the Marble Arch nearby Hyde Park Corner and Windsor Castle.
However, the English cuisine is not popular; everyone will enjoy a typical English breakfast.

THE BLACK FOREST

This region in Germany is popular for its highlands and woods. Everyone who likes walking will have a nice time there. This place is also popular for the famous cuckoo clock and also Germany's largest waterfall can be found there.

The Black Forest is the heart of the woodworking industry and you can buy some wonderful souvenirs in wood and it is the ideal place for buying a cuckoo clock.
Enjoy also the Black Forest Cake, a delicious dessert in this region!

OSLO

Oslo is the main capital of Norway. The fjords in Norway are amazing and offer beautiful sights The Vigeland Park is one of the highlights of Oslo. This sculpture park has a great quantity of Gustav's Vigelands works. There are 192 sculptures this park and "the Fountain" which was the first sculpture in this park is still now one of the most beautiful ones.

Other important places to visit in Oslo are the Royal palace, the Vikingship museum and the Kings Castle.

Norway is also the country for fish. If you like to eat fish; it is the place to be for crab, salmon and many other kinds of fish.

COPENHAGEN.

Copenhagen is a beautiful city in Danmark. This city is popular because of the bronze statue of the little Mermaid which you can admire in the harbour. A beautiful church in this city is the Frederiks Church (also known as the Marble church). This church has the larges Dome of Scandinavia. Other places of interest are Christiansborg Slot(where the Parliament is housed),Tivolo(a park of entertainment for children)and the Town Hall.

BRUGES

Bruges is a city in Belgium with many medieval buildings like the Church of Our Lady. The Belfrey is maybe the most popular building of Bruges. You can see this beautiful building already when you are on the Market Place.

Bruges is also special for its narrow streets and cobblestones. The Minnewater is my favorite place in this city, which is also called the Venice of the North. It is a romantic park where you can walk and see many swans and birds. Behind the Minnewater you can visit the Beguinage, which was founded by the countess of Flanders in 1245, Margaretha of Constantinople.

Bruges offers you also a lot of statues like Jan Breydel, Hans Memling, Guido Gezelle, the apocalyptic rider and many others.

Europe offers more interesting places to visit but I hope you can find some in this list when you are searching for a travel destination in Europe.
