With thousands of years of history, a rich cultural heritage and breathtaking landscapes, Europe is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. From the mountain ranges to the sandy beaches and from the picturesque countryside to the cosmopolitan cities with thousands of museums and galleries, Europe has a lot to discover for the traveller. And traveling in Europe is easier than ever, thanks to the European Union (EU). For example, you can travel to 26 European countries without border controls, and simply take your dog or cat with you. You can access healthcare anywhere if something goes wrong, and the euro makes it easier to compare prices. And now you can use your mobile phone exactly as you would at home, at no extra cost, and your online subscriptions travel with you wherever you go. Europe not only attracts millions of visitors from outside Europe, but Europeans themselves also like to travel to the various European cities and countries. Europeans can now travel around the EU as easily as in their own country. The abolition of most passport controls and the use of the same currency — the euro — in 19 European countries has made traveling much easier. The creation of an internal market with free movement of people, goods, services and money has led to a greater supply and lower prices.
