Did you know that Europe has 50 different countries? And did you plan to visit all of them on your next Europe-trip. Well, unless you have several months, you should instead focus on a few large cities. Below I will suggest 4 cities in 4 countries, which all have great sights, delicious food and/or superb nightlife.

Amsterdam, the Netherlands. If you are looking for a very liberal minded city with legal hash and sex, Amsterdam is the place to go. You can buy hash in the so-called coffeeshops or sex (which comes in all kind of sizes and nationalities) in the Red Light District.

But Amsterdam is much more than a city of sins. You can also find museums with great art from Van Gogh and Rembrandt. Or you can visit the Anne Frank House " the place where the Anne Franks Diary was written.

Barcelona, Spain. The capital of Spain is Madrid " but the most interesting city is without doubt Barcelona. The city has everything: great food, interesting sights and a very fine nightlife. And then there is FC Barcelona " the famous football club with the amazing stadium Camp Nou.

The most amazing sight in the city is Sagrada Famlia " the unfinished cathedral constructed by Antoni Gaud. Other places not to miss are the pedestrian street La Rambla, the harbor area and Barceloneta with the great tapas and seafood.

Budapest, Hungary. The capital of Hungary is divided in two parts by the famous Danube (know for the waltz by Johann Strauss). The hilly Buda-part is on the left side while the Pest-part is on the right. The best sights are either located on the Castle Hill in the Buda-part or in central Pest.

Two must see sights are the Royal Palace and the National Gallery. A great place for relaxing and wandering is the park on the Margaret Island, while the best shopping is found on the in Vci Street and in Westend City Center (Central Europes largest shopping centre).

Prague, the Czech Republic. If you need a cheap vacation, Prague could be the place to go. Even though the prices have gone up since the Cold War, you can still find cheap accommodation and eating in Prague.

But the best part is the many great sights. Start your visit in the Star Mesto, the old part of Prague, with the famous Astronomical Clock. Then follow the Charles Bridge (where you can buy paintings and souvenir) to the other side of the Vltava River. Here you find the Prague Castle - the biggest ancient castle in the world. Other places to visit are the historical Jewish ghetto Josefov, the Kafka Museum and the Jewish Museum.
