Don't you believe us that you can visit several of the largest cities in Europe for free? That's true! All you need to do is plan your trip in an appropriate way and check where you do not need to have admission tickets. Additionally, you can reduce the cost of public transport to the maximum. We prove that you do not need to have a very thick wallet to travel around the world.

It turns out that traveling around Europe doesn't have to be incredibly expensive. The more so because the borders within the EU are open and you don't even have to prepare for your trip. It is enough to read the lists of free tourist attractions. You can also minimize the cost of travel and accommodation to zero when you decide to hitchhike and use couchsurfing.

We will start with London, because this city is where a lot of free tourist attractions await you. Most state museums are open to the public without the need to buy tickets. The famous British Museum is at the top of the list of free attractions. Inside, amazing archaeological excavations await you - sarcophagi with mummies, exhibits related to ancient Greece and Rome. Tourists, however, want to see the famous Rosetta Stone the most. Not only is the entrance free - you can also get the help of a guide completely free of charge. Another brilliant free spot is the National Gallery, which is located on Trafalgar Square. Inside you will find an impressive collection of works of art by the greatest painters of all time: Van Gogh, Jan van Eyck and even Leonardo da Vinci. And don't forget the famous Natural History Museum, which children will especially like. Inside, there are dinosaur skeletons and exhibitions dedicated to the most common species of plants and animals. The Media Library of the British Film Institute is also free, with an archive of extraordinary TV and cinema recordings. You'll also get free entry to the Palace of Westminster, the Maritime Museum, the National Portrait Gallery, the Photography Museum, the Science Museum, the Serpentine Gallery, the Tate Modern, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and a few more.

And what is the situation in the romantic capital of the world - Paris? Here, too, you can spend your entire holiday just exploring free tourist attractions! You will pay nothing to enter the spectacular Notre Dame Cathedral. You will probably say that it is nothing unusual, because you can enter churches for free, but not everywhere it is as obvious as in our country. In addition, Notre Dame has the works of the old masters and an amazing atmosphere. It is also free to visit the permanent exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art de la Ville de Paris. Inside, masterpieces of the most important artists of the 20th century, including of course Picasso, are waiting for you. Permanent exhibitions can also be seen at the Carnavalet Museum, a place where you can learn much more about the history of Paris. Inside, beautiful furniture, works of art, sketches and photographs await you - a very atmospheric place where you can feel the spirit of the city. It is also worth visiting the Fragonard Perfume Museum, where you will learn more about the production of the most beautiful and expensive fragrances in the world.

On the example of two cities that are considered the most expensive in Europe, we showed you that you can visit them completely for free, just check which attractions cost nothing. It is worth remembering that in many European cities, including Poland, some museums are available for free on specific days.

In the heart of Catalonia - Lleida
It would seem that it is difficult to compete for tourists, being the only province in the country without access to the sea. Meanwhile, Spanish Lleida, located in the western part of Catalonia, does not have to be ashamed that there is nothing to make up for. Because it does, and it does. The location of the Lleida province is a great asset for a tourist wishing to intensively explore the attractions of Spain . What can we say about its capital? Lleida (Lérida) is not as famous and popular as Zaragoza, let alone Barcelona, but it is growing very fast. Located on the banks of the River Segre, it is an important scientific and commercial center, and has good rail connections. After relaxing in Barcelona, tourists often pass through Lleida on their way deep into the Iberian Peninsula. The main attractions of the city are two cathedrals - the 13th-century Catedral de la Seu Vella, with a tall tower and courtyard with 17 huge arches, and the newer, baroque Catedral Nueva. It does not make such an impression as the older temple towering over Lleida, but it is also worth seeing. The old town hugs the hill with the Catedral de la Seu Vella visible from a distance and hugs the right bank of the river. Parallel to Segre runs the representative shopping street - Carrer Major, while on the other side of the river is the Cappont district, where the new university campus is located. While strolling through the streets of Lleida, it is worth taking a closer look at the ancient gate to the city, the Gardena Castle, built by the Templars, as well as the magistrate building, i.e. the Paerii Palace, built in Romanesque style. Approx. 27 km away is Belaguer , an interesting town with an Arab and Jewish quarter, the castle of the Counts of Urgel and Gothic temples. It's nice to get lost in the tangle of narrow medieval streets.
