Already been to London, Paris and Berlin? Make these underrated cities your next stop

City breaks can be just as rejuvenating as a beach holiday. But Europe's capitals aren't always your best option for a stress-free escape.

London, Paris and Rome are famed for tourism, crowds and high prices. If you're looking for somewhere a little less obvious, try these off-the-radar city breaks instead.

Packed with vibrant culture, food and nightlife, these nine urban escapes offer all the perks of city life with smaller crowds and lower price tags.

Poznan is one of Poland's most underrated cities. From the colourful houses of its picturesque old town to the techno raves held in underground clubs, it has a little something for everyone. 

After visiting the historic cathedral located on an island in the fork of the River Warta, you can learn about its history at the interactive heritage centre, Brama Poznania.

Make sure to sample some of the region’s signature wielkopolska cuisine, a love letter to root vegetables.
