      You should explore Aachen and Monschau.
      Beautiful cities! Aachen has a long history of thermal water, the cathedral, charming old town.
      Monschau is just a few km away, you can say the entrance to the Eifel region. Really cute, especially in winter, when we hopefully have christmas markets again.
      But Germany is so big and has do much to offer (Nordsee, Ostfriesland, Ostsee, Lüneburger Heide, Sächsische Schweiz, Schwarzwald...so many great cities like Weimar, Köln, Berlin, München, Hamburg and so, so many more...)

    Toledo is the only city in Europe that preserves its medieval cobblestones intact in some streets, being able to walk on stones that have been there for more than 1,000 years.
    It's one of the few cities in the world that has its entire historic center declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. And it also has a good and excellently preserved walls, and the cathedral is one of the largest and most beautiful in Europe.
    Toledo is also known as "The Imperial City", since it was the capital where King Carlos I resided (Holy Roman Emperor Karl V for Germans), and was the Capital of the Spanish empire till King Felipe II moved it to Madrid in 1568.
    Greetings froms Toledo, Spain.

    • @SiqueScarface
      @SiqueScarface ปีที่แล้ว

      Medieval cobblestone roads you find in many places in Austria and Germany. The whole town of Hall in Tirol, Austria for instance has only cobblestone roads inside the old city walls. Same goes for many East German towns, which in the time after World War II simply lacked the money to replace their cobblestone roads with tarmac, and today, they value the fact that they still have their medieval road network intact.

I love Mt Saint Michel, I´ve been twice, it is beautiful, but much of its beauty comes from the scenic part of it (the mount isolated in high tide, now not so much), but, outside the scenic part I have seen in France many beautiful and more historically interesting medieval towns (also in other countries of Europe). Well, the whole of Europe is full of beautiful towns, villages and cities, so it is impossible to choose one :)

Man I look forward to your videos dropping the same way I used to with Sam Kolder a few years ago. I truly mean it when I say there's something about your style that evokes raw happiness and wanderlust and a desire to just go out in nature and explore. It's so refreshing to see someone really do justice to these gorgeous landscapes without adding unnecessary transitions and overused EDM music.

My Mavic is just gathering dust. I guess my friend group's summer schedules just never aligned after sophomore year cuz of internships and shit. It sucks how we all just accepted that once we start full time jobs we won't really get to go on those intense 2 week long roadtrips anymore. That's also why in a previous comment I asked how you manage to travel while earning income...I hope to attain that lifestyle one day, I genuinely can't see myself working a 9-5 for more than two years.

      @@RyanShirley Goedemorgen Ryan. Thank you for your response. Visiting Middelburg is well worth your while. In 1600, Middelburg was the second city of the Netherlands. Profiting from a flourishing commerce, it became a city of majestic, impressive medieval architecture. On 17 May 1940, heavy fighting broke out between the French and Germans, and the ensuing firestorm ravaged the city centre. Hundreds of unique houses and buildings disappeared. Following that tragic moment, Middelburgers rebuilt and restored many of the buildings. Today, the town centre continues to tantalise the senses with its charming, inviting ambiance. Having returned in retirement to the fatherland in March 2019, I now live a life of utter bliss. No longer having a car, I feel liberated. I walk or cycle everywhere, and I have the impression... of living in paradise!

    However, I think 25 is far from enough, because Europe is very rich in culture heritage.
    For example, You have left the medieval City Ghent in Belgium out. In my personal opinion, Ghent is a city that will indeed bring you right back to the bygone eras... and make you falling in love with the brilliance of those Ancient Architects.
