Here are some of the prettiest small towns across Europe.
Giethoorn,Netherlands
They call it the Dutch answer to Venice,but Giethoorn lacks one crucial thing that the Italian city has overtourism.As in Venice,life goes around the water.There are no cars in the center so the only way to get around is on foot or on the water.Hungry?Stop at the Michelin-starred restaurant Hollands Veneti?.
Guim?ries,Portugal
Guim?ries is crucial to Portugal's history — It was named the country's first capital in the 12th century.Its Middle Age core remains largely undamaged,full of grand old palaces and a broken castle,standing on top of a cliff.Like everywhere in Portugal,local bakeries make a taste pie,but here you should try the local speciality:tortas de Guim?ries,a pastry filled with squash and ground almonds.
Clovelly,UK
Donkeys used to be the only way to get up and down the steep streets of Clovelly,a pretty fishing village in Devon,southwest England.Today,they still haven't managed to bring cars in.It sits at the bottom of a 400-foot cliff.Instead,goods are transported by man-powered sledges (雪橇).
Kenmare,Ireland
On the southwestern tip of Ireland,the land melts into the ocean in County Kerry.Kenmare swings on the bay of the same name.This is in the middle of some of Ireland's best loved ares.It's on the Wild Atlantic Way,between the Ring of Kerry and the Ring of Beara.Kenmare is known for its food,and for its views — with grand mountains behind the clear bay.
