Europe
Europe is one of the smallest continents in the world. There are 752,040,653 inhabitants, which places it behind Asia, Africa and the Americas.
Europe benefits from great ethnocultural wealth and a plurality of languages. “Traditional” cultures being, among others, Germanic, Slavic, Latin, Greek, Basque and Finno-Ugric cultures, there are 128 languages and dialects. However, today, Europe has become a multicultural continent thanks to strong immigration, particularly from Africa and Asia. This adds linguistic, cultural and gastronomic wealth to Europe!
In 2023, Europe accounted for 54.5% of all international tourist arrivals. The continent welcomed 700.4 million foreign arrivals!
Europe is known for its superb and varied architecture, especially its famous castles, with remains from ancient Rome, the Middle Ages and many other eras. Europe is also renowned for its exciting historical heritage, its culture, its art, its museums, its amusement and water parks, its gastronomy and its fantastic Christmas markets, among the best in the world. Finally, Europe is blessed with splendid nature: from mythical forests, to fine sandy beaches, coves, gorges, lakes, majestic mountains, charming valleys and rivers, dunes, lavender fields etc. Europe can be visited very easily by train, car, bus or boat, but also through sport, whether hiking, cycling, skiing, or even on horseback.
