You can get to Sapa from Hanoi by bus, train, or taxi. Taxi is the fastest but it’s also the most expensive by far. I personally traveled by bus which I think is the best option.
Pretty isn’t a word you can use to describe every city, but it fits perfectly with Prague. It’s one of the prettiest cities we’ve ever seen. Prague is so pretty in fact, that it almost doesn’t seem real. It looks and feels like a fairy tale.

Paella is one of the most well-known dishes in Spanish cuisine. It’s available throughout Spain where many consider it a national dish, but it’s originally from Valencia.

Lisbon has an artistic vibe that appeals to creatives of every type. This was most apparent at Lx Factory and Embaixada, two creative hubs that cater to people with an interest in contemporary art, design, fashion, and food.
In spite of its overwhelmingly gothic and neoclassical architecture, Budapest is an incredibly hip and trendy city. It’s forward thinking in its approach to art and design and much of that creativity seems to have carried over into its food.
I don’t have much experience with Czech food but one thing seems clear, roasted meat dishes heavy on gravies, starches, and root vegetables figure prominently in Czech cuisine. It’s the type of food you’d expect from countries that experience harsh winters.
Located along the Douro River, Porto’s historical center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is characterized by hilly cobblestone streets, centuries-old churches, and beautiful azulejo tiles.
