As the summer slowly approaches, you have probably searched the interwebs through the travel agreements for some of the world’s top destinations. So they say …

In recent years, travelers have the lesser -known instead of following the crowd to places that have been published in this way, it feels like we have already been.

For example, can you believe that I have never been to Cancun? It’s true. As American, some people find that hard to fathom, even more when they discover that I have been to 16 other destinations in Mexico.

As far as Europe is concerned, it took me 34 years to finally go to Paris, and I still have not been to Barcelona or Rome.

But enough about me. It has become clear because more travelers generally help their travel beyond the norm and certain destinations help to break tourist records in the process.

In fact, we encourage travelers to go at Travel Off Path, well, off-path This summer, instead of the well -known names, we all think we should visit.

If you need a small push to help you decide where you want to go, these 3 surprising European cities of all time visit Visitor records:

Katowice, Poland

Located in the Silesia region, which also hits the Czech Republic and Germany, you will find a separate kitchen beyond the typical meat spots that you can imagine to surrender when visiting Poland.

Eat a few must-try Kluski śląskie (Dumplings) and Modra Kapusta (stewed cabbage), and there is no better place than always sniffing Mariacka Street.

Katowice is not just a foodie destination for adventurous palettes; It is one of the best destinations to find out more about world history with simple gateways to fascinating sites and orientation points, such as the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum (an hour drive; free access)

Brussels is a city that we all know the name, but that has probably not been. At least that is the way it used to be …

More than 10 million travelers are now entering the wonderful cityscape of Brussels with possibly even more before 2025.

The capital of Belgium makes a name for itself with crowned Restaurants that take over the food scene and have become one of the easiest cities in Europe to reach, even for Americans.
