Beautiful landmarks of Europe
1. The Colosseum:
This was the first one which I visited when I was in Rome. This is also
known as the Flavian Amphitheatre. This landmark has a brutal history but still, it is beautiful.
It is built of concrete and sand. In its day it can easily hold up to 55,000 people. That is
absolutely shocking but it’s the truth. It is the top spot in the list of landmarks in Rome. It
attracts a lot of tourists from everywhere. It’s totally worth a visit.

2. The Eiffel Tower:
I always had a dream of visiting the Eiffel Tower. It is Paris’s most visited
attractions. As because Paris is known as the city of lights, this place takes the top position in
the list of landmarks. It is a standing structure at a height of 342 meters. It hard to miss this
place at least. This tower attracts around 7 million visitors each year. Hence it has got the title
of the most visited paid-for monument in the world.

3. Sagrada Familia:
This place was my third stop. It Barcelona’s most impressive Catholic
Cathedral. It is pretty spectacular and stands unfinished. This landmark was designed by the
architect, Antonio Gaudi. This has now entered in its last phase of construction. It is the tallest
because of its new tower and is almost set to reach 172 meters. That’s so amazing. This
construction is taking 133 years and will be completed in the year 2026. This year will also
mark the centenary of Gaudi’s death.

4. The Leaning Tower of Pisa:
This landmark has a poor foundation. But it looked appealing to
me. This is a human error for which everyone is thankful. This place is a tourist hotspot. I
could see hordes of people trying to click picture showing them propping up the tower. I too
got one clicked. It was an amusing sight and I had a lot of fun. One can take a walk up the
tower too.

5. Brandenburg Gate:
This landmark is located in Germany. It is a symbol of peace and was
built in the eighteenth century. The original concept of designer for the gate was a
‘Friedenstor’ or victory arch. Berlin’s history varied and also it shared the existence as a
political icon and a symbol of a divided city. I enjoyed this place as a symbol of unity. It was
a unique and memorable place to visit during the time in Berlin.

6. Ancient City Walls of Dubrovnik:
When I visited this place I got to know that it is considered
as a magnificent fortification monument in Europe. I walked around the walls of Dubrovnik. I
enjoyed it and clicked a lot of pictures of this coastal city. This landmark is stretched around
the city and the walls reach over 2km in distance. After a delicious seafood lunch, this was a
perfect place for a visit.

7. Acropolis:
This place might sound impressive because it is an 80ft hill with a flat top. But it
suddenly became one of the most iconic monuments in Europe. Acropolis and the Parthenon
are the most characteristic sights to see in Athens. I visited this city and one cannot afford to
miss this city. This landmark is considered as a symbol of the beginning of Western civilization.
The Parthenon was dedicated to the patron goddess of Athens, Athena. She was also the
goddess of wisdom. I got to know a lot about the culture and history too.

8. Duomo Florence:
This is a Cathedral of Santa Maria. It is known as Duomo as because it
stands high above the red-tiled rooftops. This landmark is located in the stunning city of
Florence. This dome is a puzzle to the people of Florence and nobody knew how it was built.
People think it has divine interventions or good luck. The prayers are answered by
Brunelleschi and he is a goldsmith and a clockmaker. He was also the mastermind of the
