The only representative from Europe, Luxembourg.

Picturesque villages, small stone paths, unspoiled nature as well as ranges of museums and galaries are awaiting you. Unlike other big cities in Europe, Luxembourg gives you the cozier and more special feeling.
8. Mumbai, India
True story, life is way too boring without festivals! Knowing that India is a country with rich culture and countless special festivals, why don’t you take a trip to Mumbai this March? You will for sure have much fun in Holi which is the most popular and most “colorful” (literally) festival in India. However, you should get ready to get wet, get “colored” and say bye to all stress when running into the mass crowd on the streets, singing, dancing and throwing colored powder at each other. This is absolutely more than just religious observance.
9. Cape Town, South Africa
It is no surprise that Cape Town becomes one of the best places to travel in 2021 (also in 2019, 2018…) as this city always has something to offer you.
