2. Venice, Italy
Venice feels like it was built for lovers. The winding canals, charming bridges, and slow pace all invite you to just… be. A gondola ride might seem touristy, but under the right sunset, it’s a total heart-stealer. Every narrow street leads to a surprise – a tiny bakery, a hidden square, or a perfect view. Enjoy a spritz along the Grand Canal or share gelato in Piazza San Marco. There’s something intimate about a city with no cars. Venice is especially romantic in the early morning or late evening, when it’s quieter. You and your partner will feel like the only two people there. Just bring comfy shoes – you’ll want to wander a lot.
