Spain's explains their art restoration culture at least.

Came to the comments for a Spain burn and was not disappointed!

Why is Romania trying to look like a resort country; we all know if you're visiting, you're hoping for a misty foresty vibe with a chance of vampires.

You can also go to the Delta or spend a day on one of Europe's most crowded black sea beaches.

Do they still have leper colonies in the delta? Some years ago one were still functioning i'm sure

Edit: Yeah, its still there but only 9 patients remaining. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tichile%C8%99ti,_Tulcea

Those people show up for free. They're advertising to everyone else.

Literally my first thought. Like at the very least you’re going to watch some traditional Slavic dancing in a pub. But that font screams tropical

It would have been funny if they accidentally used this for Iceland

Italy looks like a 1990s VW Harlekin

[–] Scrollone@feddit.it 4 points 3 months ago

Well, you'll surely like to learn that Harlekin is a traditional Italian costume character

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But what are the font names?

[–] Servais@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 3 months ago

Can probably be found on the countries pages

As a Belgian, always surprises me that tourism is now divided between the two regions

We even have https://www.visit.brussels/en/visitors, that I took from https://visitbelgium.com/

[–] cestvrai@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

Isn’t the divide kinda the whole point of Belgium?

[–] JohnyRocket@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 3 months ago

I'm sorry, switserland? No, its spelled "Switzerland"

Belarús' fint choice is not surprising. I also would not have been surprised if they had gone with Comic Sans.

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

Oh god, that is just Chiller, isn't it?

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 11 points 3 months ago

England and Russia just staring directly into the camera, no blinking, all monotone.

"It's England."

"It's Russia."

Someone quick make VisitCharleroi.be 😅

I may be biased being from a Portuguese family, but I really like Portugal's. It's realistically low key but still a little stylised without being gaudy.

[–] Socsa@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago

How's everything going, Spain?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Italy not using Times New Roman. Am disappoint

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

That's clearly Times Old Roman.

[–] Kraiden@kbin.run 4 points 3 months ago

Belarus using Chiller feels on brand

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Klasky-Csupo ass Spanish tourism board.

[–] Missmuffet@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago
