I have about 10-day holiday this year. Owing to lack of travel
experience in Europe, I need your advice about traveling in European
countries. Which city do you favour?

Spend five days each in London and Paris.

Or divide your ten days between Rome, Florence and Venice.

Assuming that it is a serious question, why does it have to be a City. There
are lots of mountains and beaches in Europe, too.

Are you alone, or a couple. Would you like, or not, meet other people ?
You have many different ways to travel :
1/ Go from town to town, mainly capitals, staying two or three nights in
each, visiting monuments and museums. This kind of visit is generally
easier with a tour. The operator will be in charge of the logistical part
that can be time consumming when on your own.
2/ Stay more time in a few elected places, eventually with some day trips
to have a look at some smaller towns.
3/ Rent a car and go where it pleases you, see the countryside, villages,
seaside, mountains. You can add some hiking, canoeing.
4/ Rent a car, an appartment in a resort or a small town, and explore the
surrounding. For example, explore a wineyard, an historical province, a
mountain region.
5/ Spend all your time in a leisure resort, relax, play golf, talk with
the people you meet, book some one one day excursions.

You will get more appropriate advices if you give some orientation.

I totally agree with your words. "City" restricted the suggestions into
a relatively small sphere. It doesn't cover many charming spots just
like you mentioned. Thanks a lot.

Pff this is like what toothpaste do you use when on travel and provokes the
longest threads with martin's bad jokes.
Do not tell us what sort of places you'd like to see and that will be a
great help.
Duh.

Thank you for your detailed advice. I suppose that you have been to
many countries. And I really want to share your rich experience in
Europe.Do you mind telling me your travel experience?

If you want to say you've done Europe, 10 days should be plenty.

One night with Jacqueline is more than enough, to be able to claim you
have done Europe.
