Here is a medieval castle village that has been preserved much as it was in the late 13th century. The center piece is the Cesky Krumlov Castle, a complex of forty buildings and palaces situated around five castle courts. Fun guided tours are available through the castle corridors, rooms and the tower. A tour through the town with its pretty narrow streets and medieval architecture is like a trip back in time. This is a cool family vacation idea that should spark the interest and imagination of even the most hard-to-please teenagers. A night-time tour is a great way to experience the town and the castle. There are many Hindu and Buddhist temples in Angkor such as the Temple of Angkor Wat and the Bayon Temple. Angkor Wat is the most famous. There are a few different ways to explore the park and most are easy on the vacation budget. You can hire a guide or a car and driver or rent a motorbike. If you want to stay cool, than an air-conditioned tour bus is the way to go. Other options include a bicycle, horse carriage or, for fun, try your tour on the back of an elephant. There are no accommodations within the park grounds so you have to go to the nearby town of Siem Reap for lodging. Vatican City is the smallest independent state in the world. People from around the globe come to partake in the historical and spiritual wonders of Vatican City. The 1,440-room Schonbrunn castle is a great monument to Austrian history and culture with paintings, extravagant furniture and other works of art. Surrounding the palace are the beautiful formal gardens. The buildings are a unique showcase of centuries of architectural styles such as the Basilica di San Marco and Doge's Palace . There are many fun city tours, regional day trips, boat cruises, and other excursions available but if you want to go it on your own, the sights of Venice are easily accessible by walking.
