The castle in Prague is amazing, but the image he showed was of St Vitus Cathedral. The cathedral is at the castle, but it’s only one of many things to see there.

I love the Amalfi coast too! I recommend taking a local bus that stops in the small towns that hug the coast - it's hair-raising!!

Do a Euro Trip via trains. You see much more than flying and even driving, because the driver sees cars and is stressed out the entire time...and it should be nice for both of you. Also...don't pack too much into one trip. Rather do few cities/areas and do them longer...sometimes you need 2-4 days in a place and one just doesn't cut it. Big cities like London...a day is nothing. Berlin, Paris, well, any major city. Also...go for seeing small villages nobody would think of visiting, see the rural life... It is completely different compared to the city life, as you sure can imagine.

Glad you looking to explore Europe further, I hope you get to do it sooner rather than later!

Prague is cheaper than England (but don't buy from stalls in the main square as they are a little dearer). It is also very walkable (with a good tram service when you get tired). There are some nice hotels on Wenceslas Square and the South end is 3min walk from the town square. (The North end is about10/15min walk). Charles Bridge is 5min walk from the Town Square and the castle's lower entrance is 6mins walk from the other side of Charle's Bridge. However it is best to get a tram to the top entrance of the castle and walk down as it is on a steep hill.

My favourite place in Switzerland is Interlaken. It is between two lakes and is surrounded by mountains (including the Eiger and the Jungfrau). At the far end of Lake Brienz there is a steam train that goes up the surrounding hills to a wonderful viewing area and not far from Brienz there are the Richenbaker Falls (where Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty fell to their deaths). There are lots of lovely villages to explore on both lakes and if you take a train out of Interlaken and down the Lauterbrunnen valley you can get up tp Piz Gloria (a revolving restaurant where they filmed the James Bond film "On Her Majesty's Secret Service"). You can make your base in Interlaken for a week and go off in different directions each day and explore different aspects of Switzerland. An expensive but worth it trip is up to the Jungfrau (the last bit being a train ride in a tunnel through the mountain) The station is underground, but when you come outside you are in and area of permanent snow that is just breathtaking.

Fantastic cities you can link up by train on a bucket list tour in either direction: Prague, Vienna, Ljubljana (dog leg but worth it), VENICE, Florence, Rome, Naples. You could optionally add Krakow before/after Prague if you want to see Poland too.

Lisbon is my absolute favorite city. I also love Prague, Athens, Tallinn, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Berlin, Amsterdam, Rome and Bologna and the island Ischia in the bay of Naples in Italy (similar to the Amalfi beach but way more affordable, for example Bella Vista ristorante (has b&b too). I do not recommend Monte Carlo at all.

Good call. Touring Europe by car (or train) is fantastic. Every few hundred miles you can be in a new country with a new language, new culture, new architecture. Even within one country each region changes dramatically. I've done tens of thousands of miles through Europe. I'd recommend generally avoiding the flat bits - look on the maps contours for the interesting countryside. Up to and including the Alps, Dolomites, Apennines, Pyrenees. My fav country is Slovenia, but they're all nice.

A nice city to visit if you like medieval stuff would be Carcassonne. It's in the south of France, about 3 hours away from Barcelona (can also be accessed via train to avoid driving there), has a huge music festival every summer (month long, with many free shows in the town or the medieval city). Its most noteworthy thing is the medieval city: it is almost intact, fully surrounded by the city's walls, the castle was being restored last time I went (a few years ago) but could still be visited. It was founded some 2500 years ago, so lots of history there, but it is a rather small place so it can be done in a day or two (most likely 2 in summer, it is better towards the end of spring). There are also quite a few things to visit in the town that is barely a few minutes away on foot from the medieval city.

When there was commentary about Prague Castle, they were not showing Prague Castle, but Old Town Square with Tyn churche. 🙂

Dubrovnik is kings landing, but also Girona in spain

Budapest in Hungary is absolutely beautiful

Hello Ethan and Angela. I seem to remember commenting that I hoped you got a drone for future trips, when you were in Edinburgh. You obviously like this scenic stuff. I have been to Lucerne with my parents aged 13, then I took my fellow backpacker there when 17. So many places I have not been to on the list too, which is why I enjoy these videos like you do.

It is tempting to rush around and see as many places , as possible, but I would recommend choosing maybe two or three bases, and exploring the surrounding areas. For example, you could base yourself in Nice, and from there explore the Cote dAzure, Provence, and the Alps. And then go to the Alfalfi Coast in Italy. If you try to do too much , you'll probably just get a headache.

The Amalfi coast is beautiful but very touristy and crowded in summer. Positano is not a city, so I am not sure why it’s on his list of top cities. Italy has dozens of amazing cities and towns.

3:40 - That's the 25th of April Bridge, named after the date of the pacific revolution that overthrew the dictatorship in 1974 (it'll be the 50th anniversary this year) and the reason why it looks familiar to you it's because it was build by the same company that bulit the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge. It shares the colour with one and the design with the other. 🙂

There are so many wonderful Cities in Europe. I don't always agree with these "lists" of places to go but this one is a very good start! xx (Portugal is staggeringly beautiful! As are all of the places on this list tbh...)

If you like Switzerland, go to Austria instead. Switzerland will absolutely kill you for money, no joke. $30 per person just for McDonalds. Plus personally I find Austria prettier, cleaner and much friendlier. I've been to both countries three times each. I'll die happy if I never go to Switzerland ever again. Austria on the other hand is well worth visiting and Vienna is 10x more impressive than any Swiss city.

Without a doubt, for me Barcelona is the best city for its climate, architecture, food, nightlife, beaches and its people. The quality of life in this city is unmatched. I also love the multiculturalism of its inhabitants. The perfect city to be happy.

I have spent a few days in different foreign cities over the years - Brussels, Paris, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Dubrovnik. Athens, Vienna, Venice, Florence, Milan, Istanbul, Innsbruck, Salzburg. . My favourite holiday destination is Italy. I have had several holidays there and I especially loved the Italian Lakes (stunning scenery with backdrop of the mountains, trips on the lakes, and nearby towns to visit). Stayed in Sorrento twice. Naples is nearby, along with the Amalfi Coast and the isle of Capri. Whilst there seeing Pompell, Herculanium & Vesuvius was amazing. The Olympics are taking place in Paris this summer, with a lot.of events taking place at major sites, including Versailles, so you should try and see some footage from there.

10:14 The city of Prague has a big advantage over most European cities, especially the cities in Germany. Prague was never bombed during WWII, like the large cities in the German-speaking world. Prague therefore did not have to be rebuilt like almost all of Germany.

There are many beautiful cities in Europe. I will recomment a visit to York, England, Tallin, Estonia and Lübeck, Germany. Also the capitals of Denmark and Sweden are wort a visit, and not least Brussela, the European capital that I have visited the most.

Prague at Christmas is definitely worth a visit

If you want to find out more about Positano, there is a KZfaqr called Nikki Positano and she shares her life living in Positano. The scenery is stunning! She has recently moved to Tuscany but still maintains the house in `Positano,, so better to look at her videos from a year ago or so. Enjoy! Travelling and seeing the world is so exciting!

Glad you guys enjoyed Edinburgh. I did see your videos on it and on how you gave up on driving in the city. Someone should have warned you before hand that it's probably the worst place in the UK to try and drive. If you'd picked up a car from one of the places at the airport before heading out further you'd have been fine. On that note you wouldn't want to be here right now. It's howling with wind and the rain is coming down hard. Haste ye back!

How exciting! Have fun planning. I’m visiting two bucket list places myself later this year, Athens and Santorini. My favourite places I go back to time and time again are anywhere in Italy really. Norway is spectacular too. I have been very lucky to have travelled through many beautiful parts of Spain, France, Germany and Italy. 😊

Second comment. Thinking of travel, I have done the journey from East to West across US and I did the trip from Las Vegas to San Francisco on one Greyhound. I just explained to my girlfriend how the Superbowl was like a home game for SF and so KC were getting booed. I also had to explain the Taylor Swift obsession on TV this year. Most of these places in this video are close enough to be in one US state, even though countries and cultures apart in Europe. Such a difference. I hope you enjoy cheering your team on again this year. It is bed time here now. My manager from US has booked the day off Monday.

Fell in love with the Amalfi coast from films and tv shows.

You are correct with Salisbury Crags and Edinburgh certainly is beautiful.

*A Playground Like No Other* (2022) - A 15 minute promotional film about *Yorkshire* with 5 minutes of credits, narrated by *Sean Bean* from *Sheffield,* plus made by *Sid Sadowskyj* and *Scott Elliott* from *Bradford.* Available for free on *Vimeo* and *KZfaq.*

I have been to every place he mentioned, either on holiday or with my work as an International sales person. Some places equally wonderful are, Bavaria ,Germany, Munich Nuremberg to name but two. Austria, Salzburg and Vienna. France but not Paris as it is dirty and very expensive, but Lyon , Marseilles which enables you to easily get to Monaco. Ireland, South and North, filled with so much history and beautiful places to visiit as well as the incredible people in both parts. Then more in the UK. Wales capital Cardiff, Bristol in SW England. I could go on nd on, there are so many more wonderful places throughout the UK and Europe, bearing in mind that many of our US cousins are from many of those places.

Fun fact. USA and Dubrovnik has strong connection during history. Republic of Ragusa was citystate on what is now city of Dubrovnik. It was the first country in the world to recognize the newly founded USA.

Been to Lucerne, as I have a brother-in-law from Liechtenstein. Bern is also a lovely Swiss city and of course the capital. Lisbon, I visited as a kid in the 70s, so don't remember it. Did a boat trip along the Amalfi coast about 5 years ago. Truly beautiful. I may have been to London a few times in my life!! Went to Edinburgh as a kid (got Scottish DNA) and if I remember my Mum bought a kilt for me! I was going to Dubrovnik and then the war broke out, so cancelled. Never been to Prague, Barcelona or Monaco either. Went to Athens in the 70s, but did not rate it then, but the rest of Greece was very nice. Travel opens your mind and makes you an all round better person. Enjoy your next trip.

We stopped off for a couple of days in Luzern last August. Such a beautiful city and the lake is great for swimming in. Grab a towel, drinks and snacks and head to the Lido near the transport museum. No need to go to the paid part, go to the grassy bit next to it and relax. It has to be said though, Switzerland is eye wateringly expensive and cities like Luzern are even more so. A basic meal for 4 will knock you back about €200. I've been to Switzerland a few times (Lauterbrunnen valley), so I kind of knew what to expect, but I still found myself saying "Argh!" quite a lot when given the bill.

Years ago, when I taught English on one of the Greek islands, two other teachers and I flew to Athens and found a small hotel where, on a soft warm evening, I went up to the balcony restaurant and there right in front of me, above me, all lit up, was the Acropolis and crowning it the Parthenon, and I gasped at the sheer beauty and wonder of both. Robert, uk.

Guys! Don't forget that less is often more. The history of Europe is more than 2000 years. This doesn't even roughly fit into 10 minutes. Not even if it's just one city. Croatia has many medieval cities similar to Dubrovnik. Dubrovnik stands out from the rest with its history. If we are already on the Adriatic, the Bay of Kotor area on the northern coast of Montenegro is also impressive. Barcelona. Gaudi's masterpiece Sagrada familia always amazes me. With its architecture, its decorations, and the crowd there. The latter is too much of a good thing for me. Greece: Monasteries of Meteora. And yes, I am biased towards the home country: Budapest. The language will be very difficult for you (4.5+ on a scale of five), but don't let that hold you back. But don't stop here, look around: Esztergom, Szentendre, Visegrád. A little further, Eger, Pécs, Lake Balaton, Tokaj, Hévíz, In these places (but almost anywhere) the age group of 30 speaks English. Don't expect poetry, but they will understand. I think the Libegő ( chair lift) and the Gyermekvasút (Children's Railway) are unique. The latter has a station reminiscent of a pure Soviet pioneer camp. Which is important for public transport in Budapest. Buy a 24-, 48-, or 72-hour ticket and you can use buses, trams, trolleybuses, and the metro without restrictions. If you only buy a simple ticket, it must be validated on the vehicle. In the case of the subway, at the entrance. If checked, the fine is 25 euros. And they check often. A journey lasts from take-off to landing. Try the goulash, the chimney cake, langosh. If you like spicy chili, Erős Pista is for you. If the spiciness is not enough, I recommend Bivaly Pista. BUT! Better not eat in the Central Market Hall. You can get cheaper and better in many places. If you try Túró Rudi, you will either like it or not. It's a cottage cheese stick covered in chocolate. Negro candy is an old brand, I think it's only here. No, the packaging does not depict a hanging African, but a chimney sweep at work. The name of the candy is the name of Pietro Negro, the name of the inventor. His slogan is the chimney sweep of the throat. In other words, it cleans the throat like a chimney sweep.

I miss Bruges in this list or Ghent…. Absolute beauties of cities !

i love midwest

Hi guys, I am English but have lived in the soulth of spain for most of my life now, I recoment a visit to Malaga and Granada but I also recoment Lisbon en portugal, I love the place been twice now and dont think i would ever ger tired of it... Love your channel. Michael

Italy is the only country in the world where you can find everything you desire.

The list is not bad but the mentioned places are all on the continent. Europe has lots of islands, too, wether big (spanish, italian, french) or small (greek, croatian, german, danish, dutch).

I’ve been to a lot of those places, but there are many more places that are really nice, with few tourists, and are much cheaper. And before anyone says anything, yes, I appreciate that these are nice cities. But as someone in Dubrovnik today me, most locals rent their houses to tourists, and go live somewhere else.

In the Middle Ages, Europe was made up of small City States, each vying with each other, for prominence. There are multititudes of enchanting cities and towns all over Europe. The hilltop villages of Provence in France, and the coastal towns of Croatia, Italy, and Spain are often gorgeous. The Swiss and Austrain Alps are like picture postcards. You could go well off the beaten tourist track, and still be enchanted.

Dubrovnik was a city state called the Republic of Ragusa, which was a client state of Venice.

Positano is beautiful, only 20 mins by ferry from Amalfi and only 12 euro, Was there last summer and the Amalfi Coast is worth the visit

I love my Genoa. A big port in North of Italy. One of Maritime Republics with Venezia .full place to discover and with the largest historic center in Europo

9:25 A spot on guess 😁😁

I am norwegian and I must admit that Norway is NOT the country of interesting cities. We have nothing to compete with the architecture and city life feeling that most other European countries have. The most beautiful city in Scandinavia must be Stockholm in Sweden, and probably København in Denmark Second. Oslo, Bergen and Trondheim has their attraction, where Trondheim has a medieval cathedral, but even that won't hold a candle to what is in the mainland of Europe. Cities in Norway should in my opinion be experienced as a segment of a larger nature exploration trip, if you don't have any other spesific reasons to go to Norway. Just a general viewpoint from a Norwegian, because city life have never been a big thing in Norway, and we have always had policies to keep the population spread out through the whole country. So come for the nature and history, and take the cities as convenient resting places along the way. You could "fall in love" with a Norwegian town or city, of course, but these are not our main attractions, especially not if you are travelling far and expensive to experience cities spesificially.

Monte Carlo over Rome is crazy.

Gonna give you the best travel tip ever. Just visit 1 country at a time and take your time to experience it. Do think you need to see as much as possible in the short amount of time you have. If you take your time for every country you'll see a lot more. 😊

9:30 you got that backwards. Kingslanding looks like Dubrovnik because the scenes were filmed there. Edit: 10:10 exactly. 🙂

When someone mentions Acropolis only thing that comes to my mind is Stephen Fry.

Hi from Wales!!🤣❤️👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Loving my flag in the background!

It seems strange to me that one of the many Italian cities such as: Venice, Rome, Florence etc. was not mentioned. But maybe it's better that this is the case because they are already too full of tourists. :-D

As a Londoner I am extremely biased but I would also say Florence. I was there last year and it is lovely. I also like Munich. In fact, yeah, Balvaria or Tuscany, beautiful places. I have been a fan of yours since Innocent American and was stoked when I realised you were in London. Unfortunately, I was in Stoke-on-Trent supporting my son at Uni or I would have loved to have shown you some of my city.

That IS a church you saw in Prague (or a cathedral to be precise), whoever did that video stupidly started talking about Prague Castle and then continued to show multiple shots of the same church in the town square for some reason.

I live in England I live on the coast not too far from France... My advice from someone who has travelled in Europe a lot is to avoid the cities and find some old towns and villages if you want to see real Europe and not the tourist traps. Enjoy.

Belgrade (Serbian Capital) is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Europe and the world. it's about 7000 years old

you could look at honest guide he´s making good videos about prague and cultular diffrences

Strange the Netherlands isn't mentioned, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Zaandam (last 2 because architecture,) and Utrecht.

I believe that Croatia was where they filmed the King's Landing scenes- so you were right.

13:25 that is typically American. You want to see as many places as possible, "even if it's just 15 minutes". Yes, you were there, but you have seen nothing. Please don't do that. You said you want to explore. That is not exploring. That's racing along to make check marks on some list, without seeing anything. Please take at least two days in each city to explore. Take a guided tour, read Wikitravel, explore! What you might want to investigate is taking overnight trains - this might necessitate a change in the order of the cities you visit, but you save one night in a hotel and wake up in the next city in the morning. Book 1st class in a sleeper car, it's a bit more expensive but you'll wake much more rested, since you've slept in a read bed (with linens and a pillow) instead of sitting up or on some kind of "stretcher". Saving a hotel night will make up for the higher ticket price!

Salisbury Crags in Edinburgh

If you want to rediscover your deepest roots, visit Europe, it will be an almost mystical journey.

Positano is like something from Avatar that you have to compare it to a Disney movie.

Everywhere is amazing to visit. On my list are IN SPAIN Granada, San Sebastián and Salamanca to name a few. FRANCE Ile de re, Orelans, Nantes, ITALY Mattera, scilily and Verona. And lots and lots more. Where I suggest you take a peek FRANCE Paris, carcansonne, ITALY Florence,Bologna AND OTHERS Copenhagen, Malmo. Just need a lottery win to complete my whole travel list. This is just snippets 😂😂😂

The great thing about Europe is that there is always something to see and do, no matter your budget. Different history, languages, cultures, architecture, geography, museums of all types. Even great places just to sit and do nothing. All with a train/bus/tram journey away.

I would love go to go to Sorrento.

I love Budapest, Hungary.

Europe has many beautiful cities. Even small unknown cities are beautiful. This is just the tip of the iceberg

There's nothing wrong with the list. But for every prime tourist destination, there's somewhere less well known, yet just as good.

I don't know how he could miss out Venice, which is very unique. Northern Europe is very expensive, especially Scandinavia. I'm not a fan of big cities, but could happily spend months traveling around France, Italy, and Spain. There are many beautiful towns not mentioned on this list, that are easy to walk around, and so leave some room for spontaneity, and don't stick rigidly to a fixed itinerary, would be my advice.

If you plan on visiting Europe. Do not do too much. Plan "free" time. And do not visit everything. You can't. Travel time will cut in your time you actually see things. It depends on how long you come, but say 2 weeks. The first few days you have jet lag, so plan half days. The other half can be easily done just walking around. Then take a train to some other place. 3 - 4 nights for large cities. 1-2 for smaller cities. And again: Try not to plan everything. Also I would look at what time the locals live. e.g eating in Spain is 21:00 or later.

Hi from Edinburgh

Lisbon was destroyed in the Earthquake of 1755. So, many of the mediaeval buildings didn't survive, and today Lisbon is a Baroque city.

Love Dublin, Paris and Stockholm

*Born, raised and living in Bavaria's capital Munich, it's clear what is on the first rank. Beside my homebase-city I highly recommend in Bavaria : Würzburg and Rothenburg ob der Tauber....in AUSTRIA : Vienna, Salzburg, Kufstein, Innsbruck.....in ITALY : Merano, Pisa, Rome [ I also highly recommend to visit the Villa D' Este in Tivoli near Rome ]....in FRANCE I recommend the region Alsace incl. Strasbourg,...........* 🚆😎 🚌 🧭🏛🏨 🎸🎵😈

Hello from Prague. Come to Czech republic, you are always welcome. :)

go to Positano, it's insane and so, so pretty! ♥🇦🇺

This is why you NEED to visit MADRID | Europe's MOST Charming City (VLO

Athens is amazing, so is Rome and Valetta (Malta)

Prague is awesome ❤️

Portugal is Britain's oldest Ally.

Switzerland is very beautiful but very expensive, keep that in mind !!! No joke

Lucerne is on my bucket list (as soon as I rob a bank!); Lisbon...I'm so sorry Portuguese people but this is my least favourite. Maybe it was because I went there in winter? I have Portuguese friends and they all seem to have differing opinions on the place; Positano is also on my bucket list; London - I've visited London many times and really like. My best memory of London was sailing into it at night aboard the Paddle Steamer Waverley - we went under Tower Bridge at night!; Edinburgh is just wonderful. I visit it at least 3 or 4 times a year and always find something new. the crags are Salisbury Crags; Dubrovnik is another bucket list place. Never heard a bad word about it; I LOVE Prague. I would move there in a heartbeat. Beautiful city, fantastic people, I don't have a single bad word to say about it. It's also very affordable to visit! He wasn't showing the castle when he was mentioning it btw; I've been to Barcelona quite a few times and I do love it, but the last time I was there it just didn't feel the same. They definitely seem to be sick of tourists! I would still go back though, there's so much I've still to see there; Athens is on my bucket list too, but I've heard it's crazy busy; I've no plans to visit Monaco - I don't have the wardrobe, or the money!!; I tend to visit lots of places for a short spell (a day or two), then go back to the places that I liked the most! My favourite places not on this list are Hamburg, Bremen, Copenhagen, Paris, Girona and Salzburg. But Prague is my overall favourite.

Also LOVE Switzerland , been 4 times . Saying that tho , i pray Scotland beat the Swiss when they play each other at the football European Championships this summer ⚽ 🙏 ⚽

My favourite cities in Europe (UK aside) are Paris, Helsinki, Cologne and best of all Copenhagen

These rankings (even more made in this way) make no sense (even as a personal taste); I write this not because my city is not here (I won't even mention it) but because the selection criteria is incomprehensible (more than my English probably). The title it says "cities", ok, then I see Positano who is a very small village, I keep watching and think "maybe he only chose small and medium-sized towns/cities" ... comes London (who worth hundreds of visits, not only one, that's not the point though); again, I thought, maybe he wants to mention especially the ones he thinks deserve more tourists, a sort of "hidden gems", no instead, since Praga, Barcellona, Positano etc have millions of tourists and are not hidden for sure. So what's the point/sense of this ranking? A top 10 is already impossible (you would need a top 100 at least) but in this way is just ... I don't know, I really don't understand (Positano and London in the same ranking/video?), maybe it's just me who takes these things too seriously.

I would have suggested Dubrovnik if it hadn’t come up in the video. Croatia is beautiful and cheaper than some other European countries. Greece is also beautiful but I would suggest the less touristy places.

So basically most cities mentioned are just tourist attractions... imo that's boring... I'm not saying there's nothing to see in those places, but I find it a lot more exciting, when I see people explore less popular destinations... P.S. Also - the fact that there's nothing from Northern or Eastern Europe on this list is criminal imo... it's not like Southern/Western/Central Europe are the only places worth going to...just saying...

Chester, Milan, or Stockholm.

The way of travel that you're talking about preferring is very typical for Amerians, it is all about bragging when you get home, and not about experiencing the places you visit. It is consumption of travel, not experience, to use a sociological term. I'd recommend not being in such a hurry, take a breath, allow yourself to experience what the place you're visiting is actually like. Smell the smells, taste the food, walk the smaller back roads, yes you an also see the sights, but let everything sink in. You will get a richer experience. Europe is so many different cultures, flavours and people, it is not experienced on conveyor belt tourism.

Athens, Geece, is where democracy was born.

11:45 Is Barcelona controlled by droids like Westworld?😂

Dubrovnik - They filmed Star Wars there, the Gambling Planet in Ep. 8.

Hi Guys 🇬🇧🇬🇧

Yesss Amalfi coast

"Top lists" always require checking up on the things that are NOT SAID ... like the *AMOUNT OF TOURISM in them ... which could make "visiting attractions" a hassle, because you have to wait for hours and are in a tightly packed crowd!* It is comparable to "subtracting filters and photoshop from glamour pictures of top models". tl;dr DONT plan a trip just based on this ...

To say that it is the oldest bridge in the world is a bit of nonsense, it is not even the oldest in Europe, there are many bridges older than that, you only have to go through the constructions left by the Roman Empire all over Europe and even today they are still standing and in use. Some of them even support vehicular traffic. Just Google it... we're not off to a good start.
