dont tell anyone! or the tourorrists will come...

Agree that you right...!

Greetings from Kosovo

Greetings from Hungary

Greetings from Romania. I'm planning a trip to Belgrade from Bucharest. How many days do you think would be optimal to visit the city? Including Novi Beograd, love me some communist architecture.

ахахахаха, пусть эта мысль тебя согревает))

Yeah

Latvia is officially part of NORTHERN EUROPE,but thank you for including us in video

By that definition, so is everywhere else. I mean "one of the best" out of how many places?

Diana Leinasare Well, it can be both East and North at the same time, for example, the Balkans are in Southeastern Europe, so you can kinda put them in both categories when making a video like this. 😅

Gdansk is stunning

Try city Gdank till Gdynia is splendid.

That's interesting because you can see gdańsk at 0:04.

I enjoyed Poznań more than Warsaw, more manageable and I feel like I „know“ Poznan‘ after only a few days,.

Naakte vrouw

Nice input. Thanks

I'm from Bucharest and I can tell you while visiting is clearly an amazing experience, living here isn't.

You sure that you meant Bucharest or did you meant Budapest?

I'm french and i prefer Budapest or Prague as Paris honestly

@@Marius048 I live in Budapest, it is amazing i am so lucky i was born here.

Krakow of the 1990s perhaps, but after 2010 unlovable.

❤️❤️🇸🇰🇸🇰

And Kriváň that they mention actually isn't even in High Tatras but in Low Tatras. It is, however, Slovak national peak mentioned throughout literature, unique for its characteristic shape. Kriváň from slovak adjective krivý = crooked, curved.

Right. And Tatra Mountain it's not only northern Slovakia but also southern Poland...

Maybe not those places, but other places in Eastern Europe are still cheap compared to Western Europe, such as Montenegro, Albania, Estonia Bulgaria, Estonia and Latvia.

Dodaj još Bled...i od Vardara pa do Triglava....sve u jednoj zemlji....nekada

@@nenadostojic8225 Ima jos puno toga da se vidi,bilo nekad.

good, old yugoslavia (nekad bilo - sad se spominjalo)

For real tho

So true.

I was just going to say that. Western europe are all liberal shitholes.

WTF just go to Spain but Barcelona Madrid and Ibiza and youll see the real europe

Why do I get the feeling that you arent even from europe?

i agree. lovely and beutiful city.

...and Bled, Slovenia, magical place, loved it. Greetings from Poland

@@justynadzt7728 Greetings :)

@EZ I love Israel and want to visit. My Ukrainian grandmother loved Israel and finally got to visit and loved it.

pozdrowienia dla Słowacji 👍🌷✌️

If people realized how beautiful Slovenia is, it would be overrun with tourists! We drove over from Italy and spent 3 wonderful days in Piran, Ljubljana and Lake Bled. Wish we could have stayed longer.

@@itsjustme4848 that is so true.... my mum is from Slovenia, near Kamnik (which is a beautiful little town as well, btw). As a child i wished to live there, in the mountains, but life had other 'plans' (so i ended up in australia). btw, there is no comparison between europe (east or west) and australia.

slovenia is soooooo beautiful the mountains and of course ljubljana are amazing

@@Just_another_Euro_dude I’ve traveled to most of these places, but sailing into the Bay of Kotor was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen

I have never been in Romania, it would be nice to see more of this country. All i think of, when i hear Romania is prostitutes and people who want to steal my stuff... AND people who is begging money from EU

@@MegaVikooo then go to visit .. and you will learn the truth ... i know about romanians who do that kind of stuff , most of them are gipsies , a minority in Romania .. go there and you will be suprised

Greatings from Serbia. Romania is beautiful, nature villages, food. Sarmalak👍 Cheers

@@MegaVikooo because you are ignorant. Sounds like you don't have much cultural knowledge.

Fun fact. Prague is located west of Vienna and Stockholm, so much to "Eastern Europe". It is also the opposite of a hidden treasure as its one of the most overrun tourist destinations in Europe. That said, like Venice it is fully justifiably overrun by tourists as it is a stunning place.

@@sagichnicht6748 Fun fact - Czechia is also a slav country - full of slav people that speak a slavic language and also share common recent history with Russia and the rest of Eastern Europe. It's about culture, people, language and not so much about location. Cuz if it would be geographically based only - Bulgaria, Albania, Macedonia are all in Southern Europe.

@@sagichnicht6748 Good point. Romanians only reluctantly admit they are "Eastern Europe" because of the location, but they see themselves as an island of western culture/people surrounded by slavs; their orthodoxy is also historically a reaction against the Popes who wanted to bring them under their fold, and they resisted it - so basically a kind of - sort of protestantism before protestantism. They are essentially Carpathian highlanders speaking Romanian since Roman times - Wallachians (plus Saxon settlers with which they partly intermingled in Transylvania or which they completely assimilated in Moldova) that resent any domination or encroaching over their freedoms - see the case of the Bohemian Wallachians who didn't obey to Habsburg rule but were ultimately destroyed by the Habsburg when they got surrounded by catholic powers and couldn't have the support of Danish, Swedish and Hungarian protestants anymore. BTW, Hungarians are catholic with the exception of the areas bordering Romanian populations (like along eastern Hungarian border with Romania and in Transylvania - where also the Saxons were and are protestant). So basically being Latin-speaking orthodox was what projected their cultural identity, which anyway is a synthesis of ancient Dacian, Graeco-Roman, Gothic, Saxon (and other Germans), and a bit of Slavs (which were actually themselves, those bordering Romanians, in fact slavicized Goths and Romanians rather than slavs proper -- all areas bordering Carpathians are like this, including Southern Poland, eastern Czechia, then Slovakia and Western Ukraine. Anyway, cultural richness and syncretism is a good thing! :)

@@sofron1977 Yes, We share recent history with Russia, like when they invaded us in 1968, oh sorry I got it all wrong, They came to help us, wonder why they brought tanks...

@@KaterinaNov Yes, agree there was no Russian liberation, more like Russian invasion but I hope you know the forming of the Eastern Bloc and areas of influence was in a way agreed upon with the west after WW2. We leave this aside - the fact you have common history with the Germans, doesn't mean that makes you "Central Europe", same as we had 500 years of common history with the Ottoman Empire - which doesn't make us West Asia nor Turks. So we have to leave culture, language and ethnicity aside - because you Czechs are slavs - like the rest Eastern Europe. Your DNA is primarily is Balkan and Eastern Europe (Ukraine, Russia, Belarus etc). Now, I don't see any particular reason to leave aside culture, language and ethnicity apart from pleasing the "superiority complex" that Czech people have over the rest of the slav countries. But let's say I do...let's say - ethnicity and language doesn't unite us together. Then very well, Bulgaria is Southern Europe. Cuz that's where it is on the map. Same with Albania, Macedonia and everything on the Balkans. Eastern Europe - well that's only the peers of Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus and Russia ofc.

Yes, I liked Romania when I went there in 2013. I loved Peles Castle and Sibiu.

It was for sure not beach vacations that ranked very high. But very nice video. thanks

Y

people stop calling country like Poland ,Hungary ,CZech republic ,etc eastern europe as they are central european countries.

@@krzysztofes625 central Europe does not exist

@@martinmanolov1773 Hahahhaha It does and it always will. Like Mediterranean. It is Germany, it is past Austro-Hungarian Empire. Prussia was name of baltic pagan tribe that Holy Teutonic Order (germans) absorbed. So, yes, it always will be, Eastern Europe also means socialist construction, overcrowded, orthodox churches, industrial cities and zones and that is here not the case, they do have a lot of them have a different story and history, not all, and I am not saying that some culture interaction does not overlap and exchange, but Prague is surley Central Europe.

Those countries are great because they are overlooked, they shouldn't be discovered by mass tourism.

only the old city

Cracow too

True.

Go there off season or dont be lazy to get up early and its fine.

I have nothing against Prague in itself though I'd not put it at number 1. That's Dubrovnik, Mostar or Kotor fjord.

Not right now, but of course we are on lockdown due to the virus.

just hope there wont be any wars over there anymore......visited krakow prague and budapest once and wish to visit there again......

Charleston and Savannah--parts that the yankees didn't destroy.

@@timwaagh Lots of them? Haha! Some of them are, but for sure not lot.

Clearly you've never been to the US. America has buildings which are hundreds of years old.

@@juliaj7939 Sadly ive never left. We don't have old architecture, buildings, and cities like all of Europe does

Montenegro is so beautiful :)

💞💓

villanovakid84 St. Petersburg and Moscow are for different kind of people. St. Pete has a more San Franco vibe, while Moscow is more of a normal, big rich Russian city. Moscow has a budget 4 times larger than St Peter despite only being 2 times larger, so the building in Moscow are in better condition.

@Big blue whale and that s TRUE! I was there last summer...both moscow and St.Petersburgh...from architecture point of view, deffinitely St. Petersburgh is more beautiful, but Moscow e.g. has a lot of other unique attractions where to spend free time...- cosmonautics museum, ostankino tower and so on...

Gdansk, yes

But Petersburg is only from XVIII c.!!!

Hey, kid! And what about Veliky Novgorod, Pskov, Suzdal and Vyborg? Or are you a Russia phobe?)))

Karlovy Vary is a terrible place. A disgrace. I do not recommend it at all.

You forgot Pancevo, Smederevo, Sremska Mitrovica, Kragujevac i Srebrenica

except Prague and Budapest, these cities are not stunning

Odessa has like the hottest Women...

@Kvarta B tatras are shared by Poland and Slovakia. There is no discussion about that. As for sights the most beautiful lake and town of Zakopane is in the polish part.

80% of High Tatras also with the highest peak Gerlachovsky stit are in Slovakia /Krivan is not the highest peak/.... 20% in Poland

Martin Fratric wasn’t it 70% Slovakia and 30% poland. Also in Poland there are sights worth mentioning like rysy - second highest mountain in Tatars or morksie oko lake

@@Maczeta_Pompa Wikipedia says that area of Tatras is 786 km/2..... 610 km/2 belongs to Slovakia.... it means 78 percent belongs to Slovakia.... and of course I did not say that polish part of Tatras are bad.... there is a lot to see even if polish part is smaller...

@@Maczeta_Pompa Rysy is definitely not even close to being the 2nd highest peak in High Tatras, that's the Lomnický Štít. And the highest peak of the Rysy mountain is in Slovakia. Hope this info helped :3

@@peterkonitzer4410 number 6, Transylvania is in Romania but youre too dumb to know it

Maramures and Transylvania. Best parts of Romania to me.

@@missustoad1 yes i agree with you 👌

@@MuadDib85 Amen. 👌😂😂😂

@@peterkonitzer4410 punk !

I'm sorry, Lviv, Lvov oder Lemberg?)))

Согласен полностью!

@@alexpetrovsky583 Lviv, always Lviv)

@@bryanchaves5691 Thanks!

💓💞👍👍👍👍

Then also Subotica

Its eastern europe 😂 Since this is a video that divides East and west

Carpathian, no way. I was there at least 20 times, but they are nothing in comparison to Slovenian Alps (Triglav National Park). Lviv, also no (I lived there for some months so I love it, but I don't think it qualifies), I agree with Bucharest, Ljubljana and Odessa.

​@@ssmp00 Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovak Republic and Ukraine are the countries that the carpathian mountains reach , you where there at least 20 times where? in all this countries and visited every part of them? As someone living in Bucharest saying ''no way'' to the Carpathians is like saying no way to everything in Romania ,as almost every region in romania is around the Carpathians .. and excluding all other countries

@Brandy Lynn Montreal and Beyond I can tell you from personal experience (month at a time in Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Montenegro) we've never felt any less safe than any other place in the states or Western Europe. We've found most people are kind and helpful wherever we've gone. Always pays to be smart and aware of your surroundings though, no matter where you are. -Henry

Brandy Lynn Montreal and Beyond Some of Romania’s biggest cities (mostly those from Transylvania) are in the top 30 European cities in terms of safety.

I would say say #3 after Prague and Budapest

It's not underrated. :) Some people just don't know it. I wasn't in Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus. I've visited all other presented countries and 15 of 25 places, but I've seen other great places in these countries.

And Plovdiv, Varna or Nesseber

@@user-hp9dd1iq9b Veliko Tarnovo, Rila Monastery, not to mention so many fantastic natural and historical places.

@@ferencnagy5502 Overrated relative to what? American and Chinese cities?

Eastern Europe is underrated becouse many tourists still associate this region with iron curtain and socialism, and the truth is that now these are intensively developing countries, and their historical inheritance goes much further than the communist period. Medieval castles, renaissance tenement houses, baroque palaces, gothic churches, and you can see it for a much lower price than in Western Europe. I think that all of Europe is beautiful and worth seeing.

@@pascalbuffalo I meant The West is overrated compared to The East by the number of tourists. Europe is by far The Best continent in the world for viziting considerig almost all aspects.

yes you are right

Justyna T ...Europe and the rest of the world deserve to be free of tyranny. This video is beautiful.
