Great News! Tbilisi is among 20 beautiful European cities with hardly any tourists
(CNN) — With overtourism showing no signs of abating in Europe’s most famous destinations, there’s never been a better time to seek out wonderful options that attract fewer visitors.
Keen to travel somewhere new without having to battle through huge crowds of selfie stick-wielding tourists in the likes of Venice, Paris and Amsterdam?
Here’s our pick of the most beautiful European cities with hardly any tourists:
Tbilisi, Georgia
The capital city of Georgia, which is actually positioned between Asia and Europe, derives its name from the hot springs that bubble beneath its surface.
Its sulfur baths are a magnet for visitors, albeit far fewer than those that head to the famous spas.
Tbilisi wears its multi-ethnic history with pride — the famous Metekhi Church, which dates back to the 13th century, sits close to the Narikala Fortress, built by the occupying Persians in the fourth century.
Meanwhile, the rambling alleyways and small shops of the Old Town are perfect for whiling away the hours.
In the list there are following cities:
Orange, France
Norwich, England
Aarhus, Denmark
Antwerp, Belgium
The Hague, Netherlands
Sarajevo, Bosnia
Pristina, Kosovo
Malmo, Sweden
Aberdeen, Scotland
Bern, Switzerland
Wroclaw, Poland
Minsk, Belarus
Yerevan, Armenia
Cluj-Napoca, Romania
Debrecen, Hungary
Ankara, Turkey
Plovdiv, Bulgaria
Trondheim, Norway
Turin, Italy
