I’ve been lucky enough to go to Europe a couple of times, but there are still quite a few places I haven’t been able to go to yet: Spain, Greece, and the Czech Republic to name a few I’d love to visit.
And although the most well-known places in Europe are wonderful (London, Amsterdam, Paris, etc.), there are a lot of places you probably haven’t thought to see.
Throw together all the amazing cities and small towns that dot the continent and you can make an enormous list of underrated spots to visit.
Here are 15 places in Europe that might fly under the radar but are definitely worth your time and attention.
1. Gdansk, Poland. Architecture and history lovers, this one is for you.
