As we enter the summer months we dress cooler, lengthen our days more, and plan our vacations.
It is inevitable to leave your mind to fly and select possible destinations to enjoy that well-deserved vacation and so do we.
Some will prefer the beach, others the mountains, others will return to the village and we, who are lovers of architecture, will obviously be looking for it.
At Kaleidoscope we propose five destinations focused mainly on architecture lovers but even if you don’t look for that option, take a look because they are cities to let yourself go and disconnect from the world.
Architecture in Europe
Architecture in Europe gives us a wide variety of options. Magnificent places that have survived the passage of time, wars, storms. Europe is rich in cultural and architectural history.
Any city allows us to enjoy an unforgettable summer, just by walking through its streets and enjoying the landscapes, something unique and wonderful that only Europe offers us.
Amsterdam
A fascinating city, famous for its canal houses and houseboats. A city that is known by bicycle, along its river you can find its picturesque houses that are now hotels and museums. It has a Renaissance architecture that impresses as soon as you see it. In summer it is a pleasure to visit it because the people there live outside, the windows open and its houses uncovered, in many you will enjoy its interior and its decoration. 
Florence
It is one of the favorite cities for architecture lovers. All of Italy makes you fall in love. Who hasn’t heard of sunsets from Tuscany? Florence is rich in culture, from Greek to Roman style, from Gothic architecture to Renaissance style. A trip to the past where you can enjoy one of the cities with the best European architecture. 
Strasbourg
Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and one of the headquarters of the European Union. Despite the wars it has experienced, Strasbourg has preserved its heritage in a wonderful way. It is a multifaceted city with Gothic-style bridges and modern and postmodern style buildings. You can also visit by bike and enjoy the architecture of Alsace by touring its river and savouring its Great gastronomy.
Portugal
In addition to being our neighbouring country, you have to get to know Portugal because it is a real jewel, Portugal combines the design of the future with that delicate cultural history. Both Lisbon and Porto seduce design lovers. Lisbon will make you fall in love with its buildings, its slopes and its tram. And, Porto, another wonder of the world recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. 
Valence
And it is clear that we have to end our city. We often forget that Valencia is a privileged city: its beaches, places to disconnect, a wonderful climate. Valencia has a unique architecture, some have described it as bionic. Valencia has varied architecture: modernist combined with Art Nouveau and Deco.
