21. Vienna, Austria
Vienna is almost as special to me as Paris, as I believe it has just as much charm, great pastries, and beautiful architecture to admire along with an enviable art collection. You could easily spend four or five days exploring Vienna, especially if you’re looking to visit the museums and sites outside of the city.
22. Edinburgh, Scotland
My obsession with Harry Potter is what led me to Edinburgh and boy did it not disappoint! J.K. Rowling wrote much of the books here in the city, making it a real lens into her creative mind and process. If the Potter series aren’t really your thing, there are still so many reasons to visit Edinburgh! Road tripping through Scotland was also one of my ost memorable travel experiences and a great adventure to experience solo.
23. Singapore
As one of the safest cities to visit in the entire world, this list would not be complete without mention of Singapore. The city is vast and there is much to discover, so I would recommend travelling by MRT if you plan to see it all (or close to it!)
24. Prague, Czech Republic
Still one of my favourite places in the world, I’m sure you need no convincing that Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. The first time I visited six years ago was a little hairy, I’ll be honest. But my visits since then have felt really safe, comfortable, and I’ve found plenty to see and do around the Old Town. I would highly recommend jumping on the bus to Cesky Krumlov after you’ve seen Prague, as it is a great stopover town to visit en route to Austria (Salzburg or Vienna aren’t far away).
25. Dublin, Ireland
Probably the most memorable solo trip I have taken was my road trip through Ireland, which began in Dublin. This city has a lot of vibrancy (pubs dominate the streets), but if you can look past the craziness on the streets, you’ll see there is a lot of charm to discover. Galway is another great city I would highly recommend in Ireland.
26. Venice, Italy
Finally, Venice! This is another one of the all times greats that I believe all travel lovers should experience in their lifetime and one that I very much hope to visit again! The city is best explored on foot, winding your way through the alleyways that inevitably lead to a bridge, square, or pontoon. Travelling by water is your next best option (albeit an expensive one), which is all part of the Venetian experience.
