For me personally, Budapest is like a top model among Europe's metropolises and offers a seemingly endless variety of amazing photo spots. On my first day there, I visited the Fisherman's Bastion - probably one of the most beautiful viewing terraces in the world. If you haven't been there yourself yet, I hope that this photo will show you how stunningly beautiful this unique building is.

Night shot of the upper part of the Wenceslas Square in Prague, Czech Republic. The square is named after Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia whose silhouette can be seen on the right. An important part of the historic centre of the city and a World Heritage Site, the square has been the venue of many historical events such as demonstrations, celebrations, and other public gatherings.

This photo was created during cycling to Mangart mountain pass from Kranjska Gora. This route is one of my favorites and I think that photo below explains it why.

This photo was taken at the gardens of the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna after snow fall. These arrays of trees are very common in these gardens producing an interesting visual effect. The appearance of the gardens change a lot during the different seasons of the year.

I took this picture last year in June at midnight in Vilnius. Due to the geographical location and the time zone, the blue hour is particularly long there at this time of year. The blue shining cloud fragments in this night reminded me almost a little bit of northern lights. It was a very special lighting mood that I had never seen before 🌌🌃🌠

The Cristal Palace in the park of El Retiro in Madrid. It is a conservatory made mostly of glass and iron. It is a nice visit to do if you are in Madrid.

The city of Berat in Albania features a beautiful old town with architecture typical for the Ottoman period. I staid in an amazing hostel in one of these historic houses — can you guess in which one?

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

While visiting lake Como, in northern Italy, had the chance to do a hiking trail to the top of mount Bolletto, one of the mountains that surrounds the lake. There was mist all around the mountains, and I was blessed with this view near the top, with the snow capped Alps in the background.
