Central Europe Step into a fairy tale.
The castle-dotted hills and richly forested lands that gave birth to Snow White and Rapunzel are as quaint today as they were when the tales were first written hundreds of years ago. At the same time, Central Europe is home to dazzling metropolitan cities and grand palaces. At once classic and contemporary, the delights of Central Europe—beautiful vineyards, delicious local cuisines, and dazzling architecture—never fail to inspire awe.
