This duration allows visitors to appreciate key landmarks such as grand cathedrals, impressive castles, and renowned museums, as well as the stunning architecture and vibrant theatre scene. Travelling during this period not only offers great value for money but also provides an opportunity to immerse oneself in the city's historical and cultural offerings while on a budget.
