Places to travel in Europe....?

So I am going to Europe over the summer for college courses at Oxford held Monday through Thursday. We are granted the remaining three days of the week to travel around Europe at our own leisure, and I was curious as to what places would be great for a short vacation, mostly sightseeing.



I have roughly six weekends in which to do this travelling, and I definitely want to visit Ireland. The issue is, I don't know where to find the best landscapes to see, or what castles to visit, or where some quaint cities would be. This is actually the issue for all areas I plan to visit.



I am taking the Eurorail throughout Europe as transportation.



What would be some good places to visit on a 3-day weekend, with easy access from Eurorail, that would make my experience in Europe a memorable one? What places should I make a priority?Places to travel in Europe....?
Paris and Lyons in France make great sights. Go to Switzerland for some skiing or sightseeing. Greece is good for sun and sea, as it Cyprus and Italy. Slovakia and Czech Republic are good for beer and great buildings. Ireland is lovely in summer, so you'll want that.

Spain and Portugal are lively and if you really want some adventure, go to Norway or Finland. Latvia and Estonia are good places to go too. For food you'd want to go to Turkey and Also Corsica in France is beautiful
i would definetly suggest ireland. bc its very close to UK. but beware, its a bit expensive.. take a train to scotland too. everywhere in europe has a brilliant landscapes. i have lived in germany for 6 months and i absolutely love it!!! i couldnt believe how green it is. and it actually reminds me of what i seen in uk... amsterdam is amazing, go there!!!!!!! and its close to the uk. but honestly once ur in europe u can get anywhere realitively close.... italy is beautiful., switzerland is amazing * but extremely expensive*, greece, germany , france , austria......and eurorail is a good idea bc u can sleep on the train.Places to travel in Europe....?
You seem to think Europe is a little country you can toddle around and visit in an afternoon.



Understand this: it is a CONTINENT, the area of which is approximately the same size as the continental United States.



I strongly suggest finding out more about Ireland. It's a little insulting that there are people out there in this day and age who seem to think that all Ireland has to offer are landscapes, castles and 'quaint' cities. I live and work in Ireland, and it also has industry, art, music, literature, sport and so many other things, and is also considered an important international IT hub.



Get yourself a good guidebook, a good place to start is your local library.
