In the south of Vienna is Therme Wien, the biggest thermal spa facility in Austria. Relax and be pampered by 26 indoor and outdoor pools, 24 sauna and steam cabins, 2,500 loungers and a 6,000 m² health area. Only a 30-minute metro or tram ride from the city centre, it's a good option for a relaxing break from sightseeing.

Pamukkale, located in western Turkey, is famous for its mineral-rich thermal waters and striking white terraces. Its name translates to 'cotton castle,' a reference to the bright travertine formations created by mineral deposits from the hot springs. As the water flows from the summit, around 320 metres high, it forms a series of natural pools that look almost otherworldly. If you’re staying in Izmir, Pamukkale makes an excellent day trip. The journey takes roughly 2.5 hours by bus or private car, and many travellers opt to join an organised tour for convenience. Setting off early in the morning is advisable so you can enjoy the site fully and avoid the midday crowds.

Montmartre is one of Paris’s most charming and bohemian neighbourhoods, crowned by the white-domed Sacré-Cœur at the city’s highest point. Once home to artists like Dalí, Monet, and Picasso, its streets are still alive with painters and caricaturists, especially around Place du Tertre. Fans of Amélie will recognise many corners, and downhill in Pigalle you’ll find the iconic Moulin Rouge and the Lapin Agile, a historic cabaret that once drew poets, painters, and singers.
