Europe is beautiful at any time of the year, but there is something special about going there during the winter. Whether you are a winter sports enthusiast or just like snow-covered roofs and landscapes, you’ll find something for your liking.

However, if you really want to make your winter vacation in Europe a success, consider visiting one of the following places.

Courchevel, France

Courchevel is part of France’s Les Trois Vallées, which represents the world’s largest linked ski area. Often referred to as the “ski capital of the world,” Courchevel has four villages, with each one being set at a different altitude. Here you can find some of the best (and most challenging) ski runs, Michelin star restaurants, great nightclubs, shopping areas, and much more.

Prague, Czech Republic

Prague is charming in all of its seasons, but winter is when the city really shines. The gothic architecture looks stunningly covered in white snow, while the picturesque surrounding landscapes look like they were pulled out from a fairytale. Add Christmas markets and special winter events, and you will have the time of your life.

Rome, Italy

Winter is a great time to visit Rome for numerous reasons. First of all, you’ll find there are fewer crowds at notable museums and tourist attractions, allowing you to take your time and soak in everything. Also, there are plenty of cafes and restaurants to warm yourself up. And finally, it will never get really cold due to the mild climate of the region.
