This grand tour of Europe, led by UM School of Architecture Professor Tomas Lopez-Gottardi, offers you an opportunity to visit four of Europe's most fascinating countries. First stop is Paris, the pulse of France. Study the architectural and artistic intricacies of the Champs Elysses, the Place Vendome, the Opera House, and the Eiffel Tower.

In Italy, float down Venice's Grand Canal, stroll through the Piazza de la Signoria and the Ponte Vecchio in Florence. Then in Rome, behold St. Peter's Square, the Trevi Fountain, and the ruins of the Empire.

In Greece, get a taste of the hubbub of Athens, atop the majestic Acropolis, while viewing the Parthenon and the Athena Nike Temples. Gain an appreciation for the beautiful Greek isles that are dotted with the architectural treasures of antiquity.

In Spain, contrast the basilicas, cathedrals, and plazuelas of old Madrid to the monuments, avenues, and plazas of the modern city.
