Rzym – jedno z najstarszych miast świata, niegdyś stolica Cesarstwa Rzymskiego, dziś stolica Włoch. Położony na siedmiu wzgórzach nad Tybrem, zachwyca pięknem i majestatem, którego nie da się oddać słowami – trzeba tu być. Każda rzeźba, fontanna czy budowla to dzieło sztuki pozostawione przez dawnych mistrzów. Najsłynniejsze atrakcje, które przyciągają turystów, to Koloseum – miejsce dawnych walk gladiatorów, Fontanna di Trevi, Schody Hiszpańskie, Bazylika św. Piotra – największy kościół Europy, a także Fora Cesarskie i Forum Romanum.
Witamy w gościnnym Prowansie! Bramą do tego regionu jest Marsylia – miasto „Marsylianki”, hymnu Francji, oraz słynnego Zamku If. Symbolem Marsylii jest bazylika Notre-Dame de la Garde. Latem można wziąć udział w oprowadzaniu po francusku (3 EUR), a dopłacając 5 EUR wejść na dach, skąd rozciąga się wspaniała panorama miasta. W pobliżu znajduje się opactwo św. Wiktora z ciekawymi katakumbami.
Rejs turystycznym statkiem na Wyspy Frioul pozwala zobaczyć Zamek If – znany z powieści o hrabim Monte Christo. Kulturalnym sercem Marsylii są Cours Julien i plac Jeana Jaurèsa – pełne księgarni, alternatywnych sklepów, klubów i kawiarni. Dwa razy w tygodniu odbywa się tu wielki targ (czwartek i sobota). Wśród atrakcji miasta znajdują się liczne muzea, galerie i dzieła architektury, a także malownicze zatoki zwane kalankami, uznawane za francuskie fiordy.
Mając reputację jednego z najatrakcyjniejszych miast w Europie, Barcelona świętuje swoją rolę stolicy Katalonii. Kosmopolityczna i międzynarodowa atmosfera miasta sprawia, że jest to ulubione miejsce wielu ludzi na całym świecie. Miasto jest szczególnie znane ze swojej architektury i sztuki – podróżnicy z całego świata przybywają, aby zobaczyć słynną Sagrada Familia i inne modernistyczne zabytki zaprojektowane przez Gaudiego.
Barcelona to miasto z licznymi i oryginalnymi możliwościami spędzania czasu wolnego, które sprawiają, że chcesz tu wracać. Położona na wybrzeżu Morza Śródziemnego Barcelona słynie z arcydzieł Gaudiego i architektury secesyjnej: jest jednym z najbardziej stylowych miast europejskich.
Miasto jest ośrodkiem nowych trendów w świecie kultury, mody i gastronomii. Dopełnieniem kreatywności artystów i projektantów jest ostrożne podejście do tradycyjnych placówek. Barcelona łączy w sobie urok i spokój historycznego centrum z awangardowymi nowoczesnymi dzielnicami i intensywnym tempem życia w jednym z najczęściej odwiedzanych miast na świecie.
Lizbona jest stolicą i największym miastem Portugalii, z szacowaną populacją 505 526 mieszkańców w granicach administracyjnych na obszarze 100,05 km². Jej obszar miejski rozciąga się poza granice administracyjne miasta i liczy około 2,8 miliona mieszkańców, co czyni go jedenastym najbardziej zaludnionym obszarem miejskim w Unii Europejskiej. Około 3 milionów ludzi mieszka w aglomeracji lizbońskiej (która stanowi około 27% populacji kraju). Jest to najbardziej wysunięta na zachód stolica kontynentalnej Europy i jedyna położona nad Oceanem Atlantyckim. Lizbona leży na zachodnim Półwyspie Iberyjskim nad Oceanem Atlantyckim i rzeką Tag. Najbardziej wysunięte na zachód obszary jej aglomeracji tworzą najbardziej wysunięty na zachód punkt kontynentalnej Europy, znany jako Cabo da Roca, położony w górach Sintra.
W otoczeniu wulkanicznych krajobrazów i zielonych wzgórz Ponta Delgada wita gości wyjątkowym rytmem, gdzie szum oceanu miesza się z aromatem świeżo parzonej kawy. Tutaj, w stolicy wyspy São Miguel, można spacerować brukowanymi uliczkami z czarno-białymi portugalskimi wzorami, zajrzeć do przytulnych kawiarni na lokalne wypieki i obserwować, jak zachód słońca maluje Atlantyk w złoto-różowe odcienie.
Dla miłośników natury Ponta Delgada otwiera drogę do gorących źródeł Furnas, punktów widokowych na jeziora Sete Cidades oraz rejsów na obserwację wielorybów, które wyruszają bezpośrednio z portu miejskiego. To miejsce, w którym wakacje na Azorach wypełnione są chwilami prawdziwego spokoju, świeżością oceanicznej bryzy i poczuciem, że czas zwalnia, pozwalając dostrzec piękno każdego dnia.
The world famous city of New York , the largest city in the United States, with a population of 8.5 million people, and with suburbs - 20.6 million. New York is the largest economic, political, scientific, and cultural center of the United States. It is rightly called the "Main Gate" in the United States, and the world's largest John F. Kennedy Airport is located here. One of the distinguishing features of the city is the variegated national composition of the population, also called the United States in Miniature.
New York gathered in itself the whole essence of this country: fashion, religion, goods, pace and rhythm of American life. The UN headquarters is located here. There are also many universities in New York, the Academy of Sciences, and many other scientific institutions. Like any other metropolis in the world, New York invites you to visit numerous museums in the city, theaters and concert halls, including the Metropolitan Opera and Carnegie Hall. A great place to relax in New York is Central Park, where you can feed hand-held squirrels, which, to everyone's surprise, are not afraid of people. You can also appreciate the beauty of the famous Empire State Building, with a height of 102 floors, it is an example of skyscrapers, although it was built in 1829-1831. "Must see" in New York, of course, the Statue of Liberty ("Lady Liberty"), located at the mouth of the Hudson River, on the small island of Liberty. And of course, don't forget to stroll along Broadway.

Fort Lauderdale is a city in the U.S. state of Florida, 28 miles (45 km) north of Miami. It is the county seat of Broward County. As of the 2017 census, the city has an estimated population of 180,072. Fort Lauderdale is a principal city of the Miami metropolitan area, which was home to an estimated 6,158,824 people in 2017.
The city is a popular tourist destination, with an average year-round temperature of 75.5 °F (24.2 °C) and 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. Greater Fort Lauderdale, encompassing all of Broward County, hosted 12 million visitors in 2012, including 2.8 million international visitors. In 2012, the county collected $43.9 million from the 5% hotel tax it charges, after hotels in the area recorded an occupancy rate for the year of 72.7 percent and an average daily rate of $114.48. The district has 561 hotels and motels comprising nearly 35,000 rooms. Forty-six cruise ships sailed from Port Everglades in 2012.

Fort Lauderdale is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the Second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale (1782–1838), younger brother of Lieutenant Colonel James Lauderdale. William Lauderdale was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. However, development of the city did not begin until 50 years after the forts were abandoned at the end of the conflict.

Hong Kon, officially the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, is a special administrative region on the eastern side of the Pearl River estuary in southern China. With over 7.4 million people of various nationalities in a 1,104-square-kilometre (426 sq mi) territory, Hong Kong is the world's fourth most densely populated region.
Hong Kong became a colony of the British Empire after Qing China ceded Hong Kong Island at the end of the First Opium War in 1842. The colony expanded to the Kowloon Peninsula in 1860 after the Second Opium War, and was further extended when Britain obtained a 99-year lease of the New Territories in 1898. The territory was returned to China when the lease expired in 1997. As a special administrative region, Hong Kong's system of government is separate from that of mainland China and its people overwhelmingly identify as Hongkongers rather than Chinese.
Originally a sparsely populated area of farming and fishing villages, the territory has become one of the world's most significant financial centres and commercial ports. It is the world's seventh-largest trading entity, and its legal tender (the Hong Kong dollar) is the world's 13th-most-traded currency. Although the city has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, it has severe income inequality.
The territory has the largest number of skyscrapers in the world, most surrounding Victoria Harbour. Hong Kong ranks seventh on the UN Human Development Index, and has the sixth-longest life expectancy in the world. Although over 90 per cent of its population uses public transportation, air pollution from neighbouring industrial areas of mainland China has resulted in a high level of atmospheric particulates.
