NEED CITY TO GO TO AFTER CINQUE TERRE

Hey, so i have a gap in my travel plans and after cinque terre, i will have about 2-3 days free and i don't know where to go. I've already hit a lot of the hot spots in italy so....
I need some suggestions!!!
My options right now are:
1) More of tuscany
2) nice, france
3) munich, germany
4) prague

prague and munich are super far so i am not sure if that will work.
any other great cities within a 6 hour train ride that are cool?

THANKS!!!

You're right. While Munich and Prague are great fun cities, they're way further than a 6 hour train ride.

What time of year will you be in Cinque Terre and what's the next destination after your free days? Any particular interests - more hiking, museums, nightlife, peace and quiet, etc? That type of information will help narrow the many options.

If you really don't want to see more of Italy. Going to Genoa and then into the French Riviera/Cote Azur makes more sense than adding a long travel leg.

ya how long is the train to munich? it is only 89 euros which I can swing that.
I am in west florence till sunday. I then have from sunday to friday free and friday afternoon have to be in rome.
During that time i want to stay in cinque terre for at least two nights and then go somewhere else for the remaining nights.

villefrance, nice, monaco, all pretty close and alot of fun. if you really wanted to, you could take a night train out of genoa and be in munich in the morning. having been to all of the above, save munich and prague for a different trip, and enjoy the french coast. have fun be safe.

I guess it depends on where you're going after the 2-3 day gap and where you've been. It seems like you'd make the most use of your time heading west to the Cote d'Azur. Lots to see -- Monaco (briefly), Eze, Nice, Antibes, etc., and you could even take in some of the far eastern Provencal towns.
