Looking for somewhere new to vacation? Away from the crowds? Full of culture? Well an answer could be Eastern Europe...
With some amazingly opulent buildings and views to die for, many areas of Eastern Europe are just starting to really open up for travellers...
Places such as Sanctuary on Jasna Gora in Czestochowa, Poland, where "the large baroque monastery of Jasna Góra dominates a hilltop in Częstochowa and is always bustling with pilgrims and worshippers. As pilgrims approach the monastery, the most striking sight is the 106-meter belltower, reconstructed in 1906. The focus of pilgrims to Jasna Góra is not the monastery, but the icon of Our Lady of Częstochowa, which is displayed in a altar in the Chapel of the Black Madonna..."
Or how about Krkonose National Park, in the Czech Republic where "the park has also been listed as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve site. Despite the small area, the Mountains are endowed with a rich flora. More than 1,250 species of vascular plants have been identified in the region. This amounts to almost half of the total original flora of the Czech Republic. The Mountains do not belong among the biggest European mountain ranges but in spite of that their natural scientific repute is in many aspects similar to that of the Alps or High Tatra..."
