While the likes of Paris, Lisbon, Madrid and Rome are understandably high up on the European city break wishlist, smaller, less obvious cities can be just as rewarding for a trip away. Those with fewer crowds and cheaper prices that still offer plenty of cultural and culinary treats and are easy to explore on foot. We’d love to hear about a great city in Europe that you discovered on your travels and what makes it special. The best tip wins a £200 Coolstays voucher.
If you have a relevant photo, do send it in – but it’s your words that will be judged for the competition.
