Carnival Season is Coming!
Carnival Season is Coming!

When the spring comes, it's the most wonderful time to celebrate carnivals in European streets. Here we feature 3 popular carnivals with different themes. All these places are easy to reach from main cities by high speed trains.

Nice Carnival
Time: 14 Feb - 4 Mar 2014
A wide variety of carnival floats with street arts are the trademark of this carnival. In parallel, about twenty groups of professional and amateur artists and musicians add colour and rhythm to each carnival parade.

Venice Carnival
Time: 15 Feb - 4 Mar 2014
It is a huge winter festival celebrated with parades, masquerade balls, entertainment, music, and parties. Masks are an important part of the carnival festival. Walking through the streets of Venice, it's a pleasure to see people wearing different masks.

Cologne Carnival
Time: 27 Feb - 4Mar 2014
The "fifth season of the year" as Cologne Carnival is called, began on November 11th at 11:11 a.m. But the real "crazy days" from February will be an unforgettable experience, which will be celebrated with parties on the streets, in public squares and in pubs.
