Top European Easter city breaks

With the Easter holidays underway, you may be thinking where the best destination in Europe is at this busy time of the year.

Whether you are currently abroad or thinking you’d rather be, you can start planning your travel plans for next Easter – or even squeeze in a quick break this coming weekend!

Here is a guide to the top Easter City breaks you may not have considered before.

Aberdeen, Scotland

If you live in the UK, then Scotland is the perfect Easter destination right on your doorstep. The “Granite City” becomes blanketed by 11 million vibrant, yellow daffodils around this time of year.

The city is also surrounded by castles and lined by a golden beach.

Palermo, Sicily

As a largely Roman Catholic country, Sicily has a unique way of celebrating Easter. Palermo, its capital, becomes absorbed in a variety of religious rituals. With over 30 processions during the Holy Week, you won’t be disappointed, as you’ll find yourself in a crowd of colourful parades.

Zurich, Switzerland

Easter is all about chocolate for some, which makes Switzerland’s largest city, Zurich, the perfect destination. The city is famous for its chocolate factories – most notoriously, it is the home of Lindt chocolate. A tour of the Lindt factory can be accessed by a 15 minute train ride.
