"Save Half Per Person" Off-Season Travel, My Top Recommendation Is Here!

Who says Europe, so favored by Chinese travelers, is only beautiful during the peak season rush? Streets and alleys emptied of crowds, frost-covered castles, glaciers glowing with a mysterious light... Autumn and winter in Europe, especially Western Europe, quietly reveal the tranquility and gentleness hidden behind the hustle and bustle. In this season without travel crowds, you can leisurely touch the rich texture of history and immerse yourself in the healing power of nature. The "save half per person" high cost-performance ratio is truly a delightful surprise. This time, why not follow this guide to encounter the exclusive autumn and winter charm of France, Italy, and Switzerland! 🏰 Enjoy Quiet Moments in Fairy Tale Palaces and Castles Autumn leaves lay a golden velvet carpet for ancient castles, winter snow adorns the spires with a hazy white veil. At this time, palaces and castles shed the peak season’s bustle, fully displaying a century-old proud elegance. You can calm down and listen to the stories of each building, exploring the royal glory and legends of the past. No need to rush through crowds, the off-season Palace of Versailles in France allows you to slowly appreciate the dazzling brilliance reflected by the Hall of Mirrors’ crystal chandeliers and savor the historical imprints in the murals; although the autumn and winter courtyards lack blooming flowers, the falling leaves add a poetic touch to the palace. Germany’s Neuschwanstein Castle looks even more dreamlike in the crisp air. If the first snow arrives, the castle, snow-covered forests, and frost create a picturesque scene, like a real-life Disney fairy tale. If you have time to visit inside, you can hear legends about Ludwig II and fully appreciate the exquisite wooden architecture and royal lifestyle charm. 🏔️ Encounter the Healing Beauty of Mountains and Canyons The Alps in autumn and winter are not only a paradise for mountaineers and ski enthusiasts but also transform into a fairy-tale secret realm for ordinary tourists; the wind sounds in lesser-known canyons are especially clear. Whether hiking or gazing from a railing, you can deeply embrace the purity and power of nature. The snow line of Switzerland’s Jungfrau begins to slowly descend from October. Taking the cogwheel train through the mist to the "Top of Europe" viewing platform, you can see the entire glacier glowing with a faint blue under the sunlight; if time permits, try the 360-degree rotating cable car on Mount Titlis, watching the coniferous forest wrapped in ice crystals rush by through the glass cabin, as if entering a dreamlike snowy kingdom. For those who prefer niche natural experiences, don’t miss Luxembourg’s Petrusse Gorge. In late autumn and early winter, looking down from the Adolphe Bridge at this magnificent gorge hidden in the city center, the uneven trees and rugged cliffs on both sides, and the river winding like a turquoise ribbon at the bottom, create a breathtaking view. 🛶 Unlock Unique Fun in Mobile Sightseeing When the means of transportation itself becomes a scenic attraction, the journey turns into a unique experience with double the surprises. These special transportation methods not only greatly reduce waiting times in the off-season but also allow you to capture the most vivid local customs from a unique perspective. Accompanied by the gondolier’s melodious or lively singing, slowly drifting through the water alleys of Venice, Italy, now free of tourists, the city’s laziness and elegance unfold before your eyes; in autumn and winter, a boat tour on the Seine River in Paris, France, is uniquely charming, with the buildings on both banks softened by the lights, and watching the Eiffel Tower’s dazzling light show from the boat fully enhances the atmosphere. Through the shiny windows of Switzerland’s Eiger Express cable car, accompanied by the autumn and winter forest’s color changes from green to gold to white, you can take in the magnificent Alpine scenery, including the north face of the Eiger. 🏘️ Slowly Enjoy the Passage of Time Amid Old Town Life The cold air allows old town streets, steeped in time, to regain a calm posture after the peak season. This is the perfect time to savor their everyday charm; the off-season in millennia-old cities lets you face the grandeur of history in rare tranquility. In the medieval-flavored old town of Innsbruck, Austria, the Golden Roof shines brilliantly under the autumn and winter sun. Without the crowds, you can closely admire the exquisite details of the thousands of gilded copper tiles on the roof; strolling through narrow streets, following the aroma of coffee drifting from the roadside, stop to order a hot drink and rest quietly—comfortable and pleasant. In Colmar, France, the colorful wooden rooftops are either covered with fallen leaves or dusted with light snow, decorating the houses like richly colored oil paintings. Visiting here in autumn and winter means no need to queue at popular spots; exploring local shops in the old town or tasting authentic Alsace cuisine allows you to privately enjoy this peace and beauty. Of course, the appeal of off-season, staggered travel in Western Europe doesn’t end here. It also lies in the colorful autumn and serene, romantic winter of Lucerne, Switzerland; the "Eternal City" Rome, Italy, by the Tiber River with its unique autumn and winter melancholy; the golden autumn plane trees and dazzling Christmas lights creating a strong festive atmosphere on Paris’s Champs-Élysées...
