The Medieval Quarter in Genoa, which happens to be one of the largest in Europe, is characterized by its network of narrow caruggi (alleys) that meander through the heart of the city, going up, down, and across. The structures lining these alleys can soar up to six stories high, and in some areas, the alleys are so narrow that they barely span a few meters. Despite their diminutive size, these alleys conceal a wealth of superb restaurants, bars, and shops. Getting lost in this labyrinthine quarter is practically unavoidable, and it always proves to be a fascinating experience.

The Basilica of St Felix is one of Girona’s oldest churches, a site of continuous worship since the early Christian period. Its architecture is a palimpsest of styles: a Romanesque core, a majestic Gothic nave, and a Baroque façade topped by a distinctive truncated bell tower. The interior safeguards priceless treasures, including eight rare Roman and early Christian sarcophagi and the ornate 14th-century Gothic tomb of Sant Narcís, the city's patron saint. Though never the cathedral, its historical and artistic importance is profound. It remains an active parish church, offering a quieter but deeply atmospheric counterpoint to the larger cathedral nearby.

Hamilton Island Golf Club is a 18-hole golf course just as big as the island where it's located, Dent Island. Since the course follows the natural shape of the landscape, it's quite challenging to play here, but also quite exciting.

Jardin Alexandre 1er is a small, quiet park in central Toulon—good for a break if you need to sit down for a bit. There’s some greenery, a few fountains, and plenty of shade.
