Who said places "close to home" are not interesting? For you, the 3 European cities to visit in July
In this article:
We will discover together, unique and attractive places, all to be savored! We could talk about as many as 15 European capitals that would allow you to take a meaningful trip in just a few days, perhaps with the points you collected during your trips around the world.
Yet we have chosen three, precisely because the summer months are special. Some people need a lot of relaxation, we will try to accommodate everyone!
1. Prague: bombshell among the most popular flight routes ever
Prague is the perfect city to visit in summer, it is called the "Magic City" and along with Lyon and Turin, it belongs to the white magic triangle. It is rich in history, beauty and is located right in the center of Europe. It is an interesting destination because it exudes legends and its very name means "threshold," meaning it represents the place where the Castle now stands.
A story of magic that begins at Charles Bridge. But Prague is not just esotericism; it is a warm welcome, striking architecture, great food and many possibilities to experience and discover by visiting it.
Among the most beautiful and culturally interesting things to see in Prague:
- Prague Castle
- Charles Bridge
- Malá Strana (the small part)
- Stare Mesto (the old town)
- Cathedral of St. Vitus
- The Jewish Ghetto - Josefov
- Dancing house dedicated to Rogers and Astaire.
These are just a few things that can be seen in the Magic City. A metropolis of many flavors, perfect for a summer visit because of its climate, it has the ability to leave one awestruck and make those who visit fall in love!

2. Lisbon: views and uniqueness, the city on the 7 hills
A city that is alive, active and always full of events to participate in. So many are its beautiful views, so long are the walks you can take discovering every alley and the many craft stores.
It is the perfect, if very hot, place to spend a week of summer vacation. July is a dancing month with really significant temperatures, yet with its finesse and many facets, you will love this city. If you have 3 days, we have the right itinerary in Lisbon for you. If you have more time on your hands, we recommend that you take the train and exhaustively complete your trip by traveling to beautiful Porto.
Among the things to see in Lisbon, we want to point out:
- The Castle of Sao Jorge
- The Belèm district and its beautiful Tower
- The Monastery of Los Jeronimos
- The Alfama
- La Baixa
- The Barrio
- The Chiado
- Miradour de Santa Luzia
- For an interesting and tasteful experience, take the tourist streetcar 28.
3. Malta: unmissable in its splendor
It is not only the crystal clear sea that will make you love Malta, but also the beauty and proximity to our Peninsula make it a desirable place for your summer vacation.
The Maltese archipelago presents us with three islands: all extremely heavenly, the choice is yours. Our advice is to experience between nature and art and rely on the embrace of Malta's crystal clear sea, right in the Blue Lagoon.
In between UNESCO sites, you can enjoy some cultural-historical tours, of course with an emphasis on fresh culinary delicacies to enjoy.
Things you should definitely see? Here they are:
- Valletta fortress city, its historic center and attached works of Caravaggio
- The Temples of Gozo (could they really have been built by giants? Your answer!) and the Cave of Calypso
- Malta's M'dina, or ancient capital city with as much as 4,000 years of history behind it
- The Palace of the Grand Master, now the seat of the President of the Republic of Malta
- Rabat with its Roman artifacts
- Hypogeum of Hal Safilieni, UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is a classic summer destination, also perfect to experience in a few days, optimal if you are a lover of the sea and all its declinations. A spectacular solution to live an experience while also spending little between a UNESCO find, a pastizzo and, of course, a cocktail by the sea.
