According to My Travel Guide, Albania is ranked the fourth among ten places worth visiting in Eastern
Europe. One can encounter three kinds of vacations in this Mediterranean country: winter, summer, and
cultural. The ideal places to spend your winter vacations are the Albanian Alps. They are situated in the northern Albania, where tourists have discovered amazing mountains, landscapes with isolated charm-full valleys, and ancient traditions. The valley of Valbona is the first picturesque landscape you should visit.While walking along this valley, you will hear the strong gurgling sound of the water. The village situated next to Valbona is Theth. It is the most charming villages of the northern Albania because of the virgin nature and the small wooden houses. Moreover, Theth is the most appropriate place to go camping with your friends, especially for those tourists who like risky adventures of hiking in the mountains of Valbona and Theth. They are geographically and physically appropriate for hiking. Moreover, visitors practice canoe as well. The Grunas Canyon in Theth is a challenge for international and Albanian tourists that are passionate about canyons. Still, the best thing of the northern Albania remains the fact that it is rarely visited. Therefore, its nature is completely pristine, ready to satisfy all its visitors.
If you are looking for summer vacations rather than wintery ones, the western Albanian seaside or eastern Ohrid lake would be suitable alternatives. My home country has a wonderful seaside, which lies along the West part of Albania, from Shkodra to Saranda. You can choose the kind of sea you like better, either the shallow, sandy one, or the deep and salty sea. The first is Adriatic, and it lies from ...

... Albanian town to visit is Korca. This town lies next to Pogradeci, in the southeastern Albania. Albanians consider Korca to be the small Albanian Paris, as its citizens are quite romantic. The village of Voskopoja is part of this city. Surprisingly, it used to be a trade center and the “home” of the first university in Balkan. This wonderful eastern village is “also rich in churches” (Neil Olsen 44).
To conclude, Albania remains an attractive place for vacation during winter and summer because of its immaculate nature. This small country, which lies between the East and West, offers the perfect mixture of eastern and western cultures. Therefore, it is worth having cultural vacations in Albania. Once, Lord Byron wrote, “Albania . . . is a country rarely visited . . .though abounding in more natural beauties than the classical regions of Greece” (qtd. in Olsen 12).
The area is neither scenic nor remarkable in any way. No stoic landmasses rise up from the ocean depths to form islands. Essentially, to the naked eye, there is nothing that may be seen. Actually, it's rather boring.
In 2011, I took a 2 week tour of Italy, one of my favorite places was Sorrento it is a small town in Campania, southern Italy, with approximately 16,500 inhabitants. It is a popular tourist destination which can be reached easily from Naples and Pompeii, as it lies at the south-eastern end of the Circumvesuviana rail line. The town overlooks the Bay of Naples as the key place of the Sorrentine Peninsula, and many viewpoints allow sight of Naples itself, MountVesuvius and the Isle of Capri.
The first major difference between these vacation spots is the amount of activities there is to be done. For example, on the beach, you are able to do activities like swim, surf, sail, fish, build castles in the sand, or simply lay in the sun and get tan, or at times it's possible to create your own activities to do. With that being said, vacationing in a city...

Alassio is one of the Italian Riviera's best kept secrets; once a top destination for Brits, it no longer draws the teeming crowds as it used to, outshone by its chicer French counterparts. Yet, this is possibly what makes it so perfect for a romantic getaway: what better way to connect with your other half than being immersed in a place that hosts few English-speaking tourists? Surrounded by the romantic Italians, you'll truly get to experience Alassio as a local and maybe even pick up a few pointers. Indeed, the Italians know best when it comes to food, wine, and how to have a good time. Alassio's silky beaches, sparkling clear water, and deep green
Well known for a long time on international scale, the Romanian hospitality proved to be, over the years and quite often, not only a characteristic of the Romanian people but, using the touristic language, a promoting instrument of the national offer on the international market, too. The idea of developing the tourism in Romania is based on this characteristic of the Romanians, and on the beauty of the Romanian village and landscape.

The culture is unique and fascinating; unlike anything you will ever see anywhere else.

Japan is a country with countless attraction and points of interest, whether its heritage, food, popular culture or dark tourism, Japan as a tourism destination can offer many things. Because of the saturation of culture there are many types of tourism which apply (Berger 2010). Cultural tourism, adventure, ecotourism, food and family tourism and even sex tourism to name a few and with the increasing relevance of Otaku1 culture in the western world, Japans popularity as a holiday destination has increased drastically. The popularity of Japanese tourism can largely be attributed to the growing cultural interest displayed by the visitors which means that cultural exploration is one of the more significant reasons of visitation.
