Budapest, Hungary

Back in the 1990s, Budapest was a mystery to many people outside Europe and tourists wouldn't have dreamed of visiting it. Now, Budapest has a booming tourism industry, and it has been called one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. The cheap accommodation, the surprisingly delicious fine dining scene, and the wonderful views of the Danube River simply can't be beaten.

But not only that, it is also becoming a major ski destination. The mountains surrounding this city are unbelievable, and the ski resorts around Boise are one of the best kept secrets in America.

Medellin is a new popular travel destination. This is the place to dance all night and see a whole new side of Colombia. And the prices are still low!
