Sometimes, love needs a little help. When you want to share a romantic time with someone, it’s important to find the right setting.
But what are the most romantic places? Cities have beautiful lights, romantic restaurants and cozy bars. But the beach has moonlight and the sound of the waves. Then again, in the mountains you can find some breathtaking views.

Mason recently went on his honeymoon. Hear him tell Devan about the romantic places he visited with his wife.

Mason

Devan: So where did you go for your honeymoon, Mason?

Mason: We went to Europe. We were in London for a bit, and then we went to Croatia because we wanted a place that was a little more off the beaten path.

Devan: Was it romantic?

Mason: It was romantic because it was my honeymoon. I don’t know that they’re the most romantic places I’ve been.

Devan: You wouldn’t say that Croatia, like, set the mood?

Mason: Well, I definitely, when I think of romantic places, I think of the beach, you know, I like more rural, coastal kinda places rather than big cities. So it had some of that going for it.

Devan: So you think that an island getaway is more romantic?

Mason: Totally. And I think part of that is that, like, my ideas of romance in the city are really expensive. It’s like going out to really fancy dinners or fancy events, versus, you go to the beach, and it’s just gorgeous. You know?

Devan: Yeah. You have a great view of the sunset and the ocean, so that makes sense.

Mason: Yeah, I mean what are your romantic places?

Devan: Well, I don’t have a boyfriend, so I don’t really know anything about romance.

For his honeymoon, Mason went to London and Croatia. He says it was a romantic trip. He and his wife found Croatia romantic because of the beaches.

Mason thinks that the beach is more romantic than the city. He says that romance in the city is too expensive. Going to fancy restaurants or events costs a lot of money. But cuddling on the beach is free.

Devan agrees that the beach is romantic, because you can watch the sunset and see the beautiful ocean views.

What kind of places do you think are the most romantic? What is the most romantic city in the world?

it’s good to mention the lawns lying on them and staring the stars.the happiness is with the right person ever we dream of..and it goes on all lifelong…but for such places first of all you should be a romantic one to make and find romantic places

the beaches are the most romantic places when you are with the person whom you love. Cuddling on the beach to see the sunset is just amazing.

In autumn, Vancouver glows with autumn colours. Holding hands with your partern to take a walk in the park to see the glow of autumn leaves is romantic.

To my mind, it might be the forest. When you are sitting with your friend in front of the bonfire and your braines are free from any daily problems, it’s the best way to spend some time together.

Wherever you could find some cozy place it would be great and easy to set the mood and passing romantic time with your lover and for sure in the heart of nature places like beach ,river path would be awesome .

i think the concept of romance depends on everyone, because it doesl´t matter the place or the mony, but the person and the things that you enjoy doing together
