Hurry up while it’s still moderately safe.
For some of these cities, especially those in France and Sweden it’s probably already too late.

Those are pretty obscure.... I’ll add to larger ones to the list based on my own travels:
Prague, Czech Republic. VERY beautiful, very old city with a lot of original architecture. Also, plentiful CHEAP beer!
Metz, France: Just visited there. Very interesting place. Has changed hands between France and Germany many times over the centuries... leads to an interesting culture.

Love these "a little off the main route" cities. Of the list shown, I've only been to two so far. Lots to see still, if the muslims don't make it too dangerous.
Big endorsement for making a stop in Segovia, there's nothing more dramatic than sitting underneath a colossal triple decker roman aquaduct that cuts directly through the old city while dining on some roast sucking pig that's so tender they cut it with the side of a dinner plate. Incredible atmosphere!

In the 1950s it would have been a nice trip. Now I’d only go to the former Eastern bloc countries if I were inclined to visit Europe.

You have to stick to the west by Spain. In a year that to may be gone.
Tourism has dropped through the floor with Islam.
I no longer think the Meditierrian is safe, felt changes already two years ago.

No thanks I will stay on the American main land. Plenty in this country to see and inspire.

I consider myself to be very well traveled, have only been to one of those, Lübeck, Germany. Great city.
Thing about Europe is you can pull over in many towns that are off the beaten path and find 1500 years of history.
Too bad it will all turn into Gaza during our lifetime.

Lubek, Germany is the only one I have visited.
To: NRx
At least I've been to one of them!
Great experience too in the little restaurant across the way in for foreground. Maître d' says as he greets me, "Oooh. I see you come with the Guide Michelin," and he escorts my wife and I to a 2nd floor table next to an open air window right opposite the aqueduct. He also spent considerable time with us discussing the menu. (This was for lunch.)

I have been to one of them, Trieste Italy. I was there in December about 20 years ago. My friend and I were walking around sightseeing and it started snowing. Pretty soon it was snowing hard and the wind was howling. We went into a small bar to warm up and ordered a shot of scotch each. The bartender gave each of us a water glass full of scotch for 5000 Lira. That was about $2.50 at the exchange rate of the time. Needless to say we were there for a long time. Long enough for shore patrol to roust us out and send us back to the ship.

Surprised Dubrovnik didn’t make the list. One of my all time favorites.

Love those hill towns. Have done Italy twice both times by train, but would love to go back and rent a car to really get into Tuscany. Despite the myth, Italians, especially the public officials working at tourist sites, are not especially friendly, but Italy just sells itself.
Spain is incredibly beautiful in autumn without the crowds
In Europe many beautiful places to see. Personally I like Italy. I visited it last autumn, it was in September. I rented a yacht for a couple of days on https://sailica.com/mediterranean/italy and enjoyed the last warm days watching the beautiful sunsets on the sea. I forgot to mention that Italian wine and food are the best.
