Lonely Planet reveals their top travel picks for 2018 – and BELFAST tops the list of must-see regions
…
The book says: Poland somehow manages to remain affordable and relatively under-visited. Sure, Kraków grabs the crowds, but you can explore here for less than in Prague or Berlin.
Beyond Kraków is a roll-call of Europe’s least-appreciated highlights. In the north, explore Gdańsk’s rebuilt old town and haunting coastal scenery.
Elsewhere, Lublin, Toruń and Tarnów’s historical beauty (free from large numbers of visitors) can form the basis of a wonderful week.
If you have more time, consider exploring the mountain playground around budget-friendly Zakopane or bison-spotting in Białowieża National Park.
Inexpensive train and bus connections, keenly priced food and beer, plus budget places to stay complete the picture.
