  3. For a family holiday, one of Romania's most beautiful places awaits you. For a few seconds, close your eyes and believe you've just turned back the clock 2000 years. Consider that the Dacians, the fiercest and most virtuous of the Thracians, as Herodotus refers to them, are battling the Roman legions, that gladiators enter the arena but may not survive, and so on. Does this sound familiar? From the annals of time. Now, open your eyes and imagine yourself in a Hollywood-style setting of Rome or Spartacus, with everything right next to you, in front of you, and all around you. This is taking place in Alba Iulia, Romania's Other Capital and the ancient capital of the Dacia Roman Province.


    Once you arrive, you'll realize that Alba Iulia exceeds all of your expectations! Begin your day in Alba Iulia with a great breakfast in the snug comfort of a town hotel and conclude it with a thrilling gladiator combat under the flaming torch. The greatest time to visit is at any moment. Because history isn't less intriguing or spectacular in the winter than in the summer, or in the spring than in the fall. However, the best time to visit is during the tourist season, which runs from the end of April until the end of September. This way, you can be certain that you will not miss some of the most amazing and breathtaking historical reenactment events you have ever witnessed.


    Every Friday afternoon during the tourist season, the roman soldiers, gladiators, and dancing nymphs are ready to transport you two thousand years back in antiquity. If you just have one day in the heart of Transylvania, don't miss the Roman Castrum of APULUM, with the Roman road connecting the castrum's southern and northern gates.

Before leaving, don’t forget to visit the forest adventure “Natura Park” Join a guided tour around the Plate Taille dam Take a ride on the ‘Red Crocodile’ – a boat/ bus.

  6. Some spots in Romania will just captivate your family, particularly your children. And one of them, believe it or not, is Nicolae Popa Museum, a private peasant museum located in the little town of Tarpesti in Neamt County. The gate opens onto a wide yard with an open-air lane on a green hill, behind a classical fence. Many fairy-tale characters -carved in wood or stone- that enliven the entire environment can be seen on each side of the alley, among fruit trees, and at the end of the lane a typical home with wooden porch sits solidly on the ground. It is the home of the famous Târpeşti craftsman Nicolae Popa, which has been turned into a real ethnographic museum, one of the most beautiful and appealing of its kind in Moldavia.


    Nicolae Popa, the museum's inventor and legend was a well-known original artisan, artist, extraordinary collector, and writer. He learned to make head masks as a child, because mask games are the most complex and spectacular of Neamţ County's New Year's traditions, and later perfected its stone (sandstone) and wood carving skills, developing his own style of depicting facial features: well-shaped eyes, thick lips, big teeth, big nose and ears, long hair and beards, bushy moustaches. The museum's holdings, which include traditional masks and costumes, wood and stone sculptures, numismatics, religious artefacts, icons, and naïve painting, form a living record of the local spirituality, which has been exceptionally well maintained in the villages of Neamţ county. Tourists of all ethnic backgrounds are captivated by the beauty of traditional clothes as well as the authenticity of Romanian dances and traditions.

  7. If museum seems to be boring with your kids, visiting a volcano may interest them. Built in the lair of one of the most recent volcanoes in Europe, it is essential to understand the history of the Azores. The Capelinhos Volcano rises magnificently to the sky near the island's westernmost tip, as a testament to the last volcanic eruption in the Azores, which added additional territory to the existing one. Entering this location is like arriving on the moon, with the grey volcanic ash and lapilli thrown forth between 1957 and 1958 being overrun by green plants eager to colonize this new territory. The inside of these volcanoes may be seen in a succession of opposing rocks, strata, and curves, as well as a game of startling colors and textures, in the abrupt cliffs of Capelinhos and Costado da Nau.


    The undersea volcano that erupted spectacularly off the island of Faial in 1957 provided scientists with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to examine a remarkable geological event from its inception until the day it died. The Capelinhos Volcano Interpretation Centre explains all they've learnt in great detail. The center, designed by architect Nuno Ribeiro Lopes, is located on the bottom floor of the now defunct but still accessible lighthouse. The displays and exhibits inside the center explain the narrative of not just this volcano, whose 13-month-long eruption forced half of the island's people to flee to America, but also of the tectonic processes that shaped the Azores' remarkable scenery.

    Vienna

    Vienna, formerly the seat of the powerful Habsburg Empire, retains a sense of grandeur and elegance. Today, many of its parks and palaces are available to the public, and the chandeliered ballrooms and frescoed halls host a staggering array of museums. Although it may not appear to be an obvious family destination, there are several museums, parks, and gardens that are especially suitable for families with small children.


    Many people come to Vienna to see the Natural History Museum. It's a veritable encyclopedia of natural wonders housed in one of two twin palaces. The Venus of Willendorf (the world's oldest sculpture) is the highlight for historians, but youngsters will flock to the dinosaur exhibits, which feature countless full fossils as well as moving, roaring, life-size artificial copies.


    The House of Music blends grown-up exhibitions (portraits of great composers, artifacts from their life) with interactive exhibits that children enjoy, such as a musical stairway with each step a virtual piano note, allowing you to play your way up and down. There's also a wonderful virtual conductor installation in which Zubin Mehta, conductor of the Vienna Philharmonic, interacts with you and assists you in leading his orchestra - and if you're too choppy with your directing, the players will give up on you and grumpily cease playing.


    If your kids like horses, take them to see the famed Spanish Riding School exhibition or perhaps a practice session (which are open to the public and ticketed). See the Lipizzaner horses in action, dancing and jumping, but make a reservation in advance. These events are frequently sold out, and the lines to get tickets on the day can stretch several city blocks. A free glimpse is available by peeking through the glass atrium of the stables across the street from the performance area.

  11. People in Copenhagen love children! And most children love Copenhagen. Ample space, 125 public playgrounds, and kid-friendly activities set the stage for a fun day in the city for kids of all ages. Copenhagen is a city built to meet the requirements of both children and their parents, so parents can feel at ease as well. See where you can feed your infant, rent baby equipment that would be too difficult to transport, and decide what you want to do with your children.


    Copenhagen, Denmark's capital, isn't all about fine restaurants or searching for marijuana in the self-proclaimed republic of Christiania. It also has a lot of attractions that make it ideal for families. Tivoli Gardens, for example, the city's amusement park, is the world's second oldest continuously functioning theme park, and it's just as fascinating — if not more so — than one erected in the previous decade. As the birthplace of fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen, Copenhagen is an ideal vacation for fans of his works, notably The Little Mermaid, whose monument can be found in the port.


    Reservations for prams and pushchairs on buses and trains, children's menus in restaurants, art museums in children's height, and, of course, discounts at all attractions. Copenhagen is kid-friendly and full of activities for the entire family. Many cafés and restaurants in Copenhagen provide specific children's menus and a highchair for toddlers. Some establishments, on the other hand, go out of their way to make youngsters feel welcome.

    Prague

    Prague, the Czech Republic's capital, is one of Europe's most attractive cities. Prague, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992, is an ideal place for a family vacation with your children. During your vacation, you will be able to get lost amid the city's historic structures, enjoy a variety of puppets and toys, and explore some of Prague's numerous towers. This city is a true treat for youngsters, and it allows adults to relive their childhood.


    It may be a lovely opportunity to discover Prague's history, food, and distinct culture with your children. This city has a plethora of family-friendly activities that may be experienced over a few days. If you're wondering what to do with your kids whilst visiting Prague, consider the suggestions below.

    The Toy Museum is located inside Prague Castle. With seven rooms displaying toys from various nations and eras, this is the world's second biggest toy museum. Tin robots, porcelain dolls, railway sets, model boats, teddy bears, and a variety of modern toys will delight both children and adults.

  14. Reykjavik is a huge metropolis condensed to the size of a tiny hamlet, ideal for a family-friendly city vacation. You'll find everything for adults - national museums, landmark cathedrals, historic architecture - as well as everything for youngsters, from geothermally heated swimming pools to whale-watching expeditions. Reykjavik is a city that caters to small visitors. For one thing, it is well-known for being child friendly. Locals are content to let newborns and toddlers sleep in strollers outside, while older children are free to wander the suburbs and remain out late during the warm summer evenings.


    The weather is the most important worry for parents. The Icelandic environment may be freezing for young hands, and the city's insanely powerful winds can wreck canopy-covered strollers. Fortunately, municipal buses are free for children under the age of twelve, and indoor activities can readily withstand even the most torrential downpours. Another advantage is the terrain: downtown Reykjavik is mainly flat, with few if any steps to climb. Sidewalks are broad, making it simple to navigate with a stroller, and distances are small enough to be covered with a baby carrier - the downtown area is just 3km (1.86 miles) wide when measured from the Old Harbor to Helmmur.


    Reykjavik has a zoo, or at least a zoo-like facility. The Hsdragarurinn, run by the City of Reykjavik, is more like a petting zoo with unique features like a chamber full of huge spiders and snakes, a pool of ringed seals feasting on herring, and an enclosure where Arctic foxes, Iceland's sole terrestrial animal, look wistfully at the adjacent geese. The famous Family Park, just next to the zoo, has an outstanding wooden playground that's a fantastic location to burn off some energy.

    Munich

    When someone mentions Munich, the first thing that springs to mind is beer, and a lot of it. But why should having a family prevent you from experiencing that pleasure? All of the beer gardens in Bavaria's capital welcome children, and they all provide lots of food and non-alcoholic beverages for their younger customers. Aside from that, there are museums such as BMW World, which features a variety of technologically innovative displays that are guaranteed to captivate visitors of all ages. While it is better to avoid the city during the three weeks of Oktoberfest, there are still 49 weeks to enjoy.


    Hellabrunn Zoo, one of Europe's top zoological parks, is a wonderful location to take your children for a fun day out. It covers 40 hectares and is located 5 kilometers south of Munich's center. It is home to over 18,000 animals representing over 750 species. It launched the Geo- Zoo idea in 1911, with animals living together in enormous, open-air environments meant to replicate their original habitats. Hellabrunn Zoo has 3 restaurants, 6 ice cream kiosks, and 1 crepe kiosk, so you may easily spend the day there.


    The Englischer Garten (English Garden) is a 3.7-square-kilometer public park in Munich's city center. A 78-kilometer network of routes meanders through wide expanses of lawn and wooded areas, providing plenty of space for bikers, joggers, and strollers to enjoy themselves. A spacious children's playground is located right adjacent to the Japanese Teahouse Kanshoan. If you enjoy surfing, you may try your hand at riding the artificial wave at the Eisbach stream's southern end. Restaurants, beer gardens, and ice cream stands are also available in the park.
