But that's why they have twice been the location of the Winter Olympics. They are attracting ski buffs everywhere and rapidly becoming a popular place to vacation. For spouses who aren't interested in snow and cold, there is hot springs to relax in.
London is the perfect place for party animals. The city features world-famous night clubs that go all night long, as well as some great historical sights if you aren't too hung over the next morning! This British destination is also home to some of the world's best restaurants as well. The great thing is that you can almost always find incredible discounts to fly to England.
Athens is yet another famous destination if you enjoy night life, on a more relaxed level.

Mexico has always been a hot destination for tourists looking for some heat. These days, Cancun is the place to be.

Italy is another European destination that has become popular after the incredible fame of Dan Brown's books "The DaVinci Code" and "Angels and Demons". Set in Rome, the books and resulting movie have peaked an interest in this religious city. The ruins and historical value of this country is astounding and well worth a visit. It can be romantic whether you travel alone or with a partner.

There is a wild nightlife for those who like to party and a very strong mixed culture that features foods with influences from around the world. You can also check out the Amazon River and go for a hike into the rainforest.
