When it comes to amazing destinations we all know Europe is teeming with choices. So many, in fact, that some destinations actually fall under the radar. But fear not, Culture Trip has compiled a list of the continent’s lesser known locations that any Europhile will love.

 

當提到歐洲旅遊時,我們不免想到豐富的自然景觀,但實在是有太多選擇了,因此身邊的許多人都說,每次到歐洲旅遊時總覺得還要再來一次。儘管有許多在旅遊網上赫赫有名的景點,但您知道的,那上面多半寫的都是一般觀光客會去的地方,總會遺漏些只有行家才知道的秘境。擔心錯過這些地方嗎?沒關係,CultureTrip就透過這篇文章向大家一一介紹。

 

Berat, Albania 培拉特,阿爾巴尼亞

Berat is one of the world’s longest continuously inhabited cities (inhabited since 314 BC), nicknamed the ‘city of a thousand windows’ for all the white Ottoman houses that line its river valley. Millennia old, visiting Berat is like stepping back through time and the evolution of Eastern and Western cultures.

 

培拉特是世上居住歷史最久遠的城市之一(根據史料紀載,最早在西元前314就有人來此定居),由於白色奧斯曼式房屋遍佈在河谷周圍,因此就有了千窗之城的稱號。由於悠久的歷史加上鄰近巴爾幹半島的地理位置,在培拉特旅遊時,就好比步入了過往並見證東西文化的發展。

Schwangau, Germany 施萬高, 德國

 

 

Schwangau is home to not one, but two Royal Bavarian castles, the kind Walt Disney would have been proud of. In fact it’s believed the filmmaker’s famous logo is based on real-life fairytale castle Neuschwanstein, perched high in the mountains.

 

施萬高鎮有兩個城堡,分別是新天鵝堡與高天鵝堡。一般相信,迪士尼城堡商標的創作靈感正是來自施萬高鎮中,那個聳立於高山的新天鵝堡。

The Adriatic coast doesn’t get much more picturesque than Sveti Stefan, especially this small islet off the coast of Montenegro. It’s home to some beautiful hotels and connected to the mainland via a narrow ribbon of popular beach.

 

整個亞得里亞海最美的地方莫過於聖斯特凡島,這個在蒙特內哥羅沿岸的一座小島。在這個島上,遍布了許多絕美的飯店,而且可以透過像是緞帶這樣狹小的通道到本土美麗的沙灘上。

You can walk through ‘mini Prague’ in 20 minutes, but really the journey will take much longer, such is the beauty of its architecture. Český Krumlov is a UNESCO World Heritage site and home to a castle looking down over Vltava River and old town square.

 

庫倫洛夫素有"小布拉格"之名,在捷克語裡,這個名稱的原意指的是"彎曲的河邊草地",非常詳細地描繪了這個城鎮的環境,如此少見的景致加上能俯瞰伏爾塔瓦河(Vltava River)的城堡及舊城廣場,難怪會同時名列為世界文化和自然雙重遺產的城市。

A popular getaway for Greeks, Andros is just a short ferry ride from Athens. The island has remained largely unchanged for decades and you’ll find plenty of deserted beaches on which to relax throughout the day, not to mention stunning coastal towns like Chora.

 

安德羅斯島應該算是去希臘旅遊必經的門戶,但如果只是匆匆路過的話就太可惜了,因為島上的景致仍保留數十年前傳統的希臘風格。此外如果喜歡看海的話,這裡有非常多的沙灘供您待個整天,更不用說這裡有像是Chora這座迷人的海岸城鎮。

The idyllic Slovenian town of Piran is often compared to Venice. The watery wonderland is lined with colourful houses that make for stunning photos, while the sprawling expanse of Tartini Square is great for enjoying a cocktail and people watching.

 

皮蘭,這個位於斯洛維尼亞西南端的小城,因為有著色彩豐富的房屋遍布於此再搭配著湛藍的海岸(是不是很值得還這邊拍照呢),所以來過這裡的人都覺得好似身置在地中海北端的威尼斯。除了看看沿岸風景,在市中心的塔替尼廣場坐下來喝點雞尾酒也很棒喔。

光是一個黃金海岸就是值得您前往馬爾他北端的城市-梅莉哈的主要原因,除此之外,這裡您也能看到堪稱是歐洲數一數二的珊瑚礁及大力水手的家鄉-卜派村。

Sometimes on holiday all you want to do is sit back with an amazing view and watch the world go by. With just two roads leading to a main square, the sleepy town of Carvoeiro is better known for its fisherman than its night life. It’s also close to the Benagil Caves, some of Portugal’s most impressive natural wonders.

 

相信在度假的時候,有的人只想靜靜地看著眼前的風景,而卡武埃魯這座具有慵懶氣息的小城就很適合了,這裡的漁業文化比起夜生活來得更有名,除此之外,在卡武埃魯休息夠了,貝納吉爾洞(堪稱世界最美岩洞)就在附近可以前去逛逛喔。
