The nature of any decent trip to Europe (which I undertook in 2016) is that you visit more than you really care to count unless you intentionally avoid them.
It becomes the 'ABC' tour.

First castle I saw was Prague Castle, which is a pretty tough one to top for most subsequent castles!It becomes the 'ABC' tour.

Just curious have you visited your moniker namesake, one place I’m interested to visitIronbridge is one of the places I would like to go to.
I agree with you about the little places. There are many interesting places like that in Australia as well. There's the early settlement sites in Sorrento and Corinella in Victoria.
No. My OS travel is limited to western Europe and PNG. Like you I would love to visit Turkey.Just curious have you visited your moniker namesake, one place I’m interested to visit
Can we get more about Paestum?Without listing everything in detail, I've done a fair bit of historical travel in Australia/NZ, Europe and Japan. As a classical history nerd, probably the most underrated site I went to was Paestum in southern Italy.
In terms of places I haven't been and want to go - the British Isles remain almost completely unmined for me. Haven't done Egypt or the Levant, and I think they'd be great - Anatolia and Iran are high on my list.
My grandfather travelled extensively in the postwar period, and always said Beirut was by far his favourite city and told the most vivid stories about it. He was devastated by what the civil war did to its history. I have always wondered if it somewhere I would enjoy visiting, or if it's better off left to my mind's eye.
It’s the ruins of a Greek city (or part of it, anyway). The major attractions are three incredibly well-preserved temples, and a bunch of beautifully painted tombs. There are later Roman ruins scattered through the site as well.Can we get more about Paestum?
