5 Most Romantic cities in the World

Paris, France

Paris is a lovely city to explore on your own; however, it is even better when you have your significant other by your side, especially since the city exudes romance. The neighborhood of Montmartre, with its cobblestone streets, is a charming place to explore and witness breathtaking views of the City of Light below. Of course, there is the Eiffel Tower, which is even lovelier at night when it absolutely sparkles — no wonder it is a popular place to propose. Cozy, intimate restaurants also abound, with everything for the making a perfect night — try reserving one of the private rooms at Lapérouse for a truly memorable and romantic evening.



Venice, Italy

Venice is another Italian city perfect for lovers. This captivating, coastal beauty features numerous narrow lanes ready for exploration and getting lost, along with charming bridges to take in the surrounding beauty. One of the most romantic things to do when in Venice is, of course, getting close to your lover while taking a gondola ride down one of the picturesque canals. Later in the early evening, couples should find a spot from where to watch the sun set, which often paints the sky in various shades of pink. In the evening, tuck into a cozy restaurant for a candlelit dinner.

 

Marrakech, Morocco

Marrakech may not be the first place couples may think of when scouting out a romantic destination for their next getaway, but it should be as this Moroccan city has many lovely adventures that will enchant anyone. From exploring the markets to watching snake charmers to taking refuge in charming boutique hotels known as riads, Marrakech is wonderful for lovers to explore together. The landscape is also breathtaking with palm trees, views of the majestic Atlas Mountains plus the incredible Sahara Desert.

 

Istanbul, Turkey

Steeped in history, Istanbul will entice couples with its unique location — it straddles two continents — and its incredible past. From the Hagia Sophia, once a Christian basilica and then a mosque, to the Topkapi Palace museum, an opulent former home of the Ottoman Sultans, to the Basilica Cistern, an underground waterway, Istanbul has many locales perfect for exploring with someone. There are also many places great for a romantic stroll, including the Bosphorus Strait, which separates Europe and Asia, and the lively Beyogul district. Istanbul is also known for its incredible sunsets, so find a great spot and watch the sky change colors.

 

Rome, Italy

It is no wonder why Rome is one of the most romantic cities in the world, as it is brimming with old-world charm. Stroll along the streets hand in hand with a loved one and take in all the beautiful architecture before slipping into a gelateria for some incredible gelato. The Borghese Gardens, with its lush, verdant landscapes, is a wonderful place to relax with your special someone; after relaxing, visit the Borghese Gallery to witness some incredible art from the likes of Bernini, Raphael, and Caravaggio, to name a few. At the end of the day, find a restaurant such as The Library, an intimate space perfect for a romantic rendezvous.
