The European Travel Commission was created in 1948 to promote Europe as a destination to tourists from outside Europe. However, their website
Visit Europe is also a great resource for European citizens.
The site is currently highlighting various cultural routes, developed by the
European Institute of Cultural Routes. The routes link time and place across several different European countries, providing an appreciation of the interconnectivity of what may seem at first sight, to be separate cultural histories. Additionally, they offer wonderful vacation themes, covering subjects as diverse as architecture, music, cheese, wine, gardens and religion.
