Valentine's Day is about celebrating the ones you love and showing them how much you care. Or...it's about finding last minute gifts and sending hasty flowers.

While it's nice to think of romance on Valentine's Day, it's also a nice thought any old day of the year.

We asked our friends at ShermansTravel.com for their favorite places to rekindle a long-standing romance, or kick a new one up a notch, all year long.

Whether it's a jaunt to Paris to take in the views from the Pont Neuf (and perhaps get engaged), or a stroll through old town Dubrovnik or even a trip to wine country in Santa Barbara, these 10 places are sure to get the romance flowing.

Here's ShermansTravel.com's top 10. What's yours? Send us your picks for favorite romantic getaways.

Dubrovnik
1 of 18
Couples in search of romance are flocking to this wondrous city on the southernmost stretch of Croatia's coast, as enchanted by its beauty today as the Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw, who once proclaimed, "If you want to see heaven on earth, come to Dubrovnik."

The city has been magnificently restored to its former glory to emerge as one of the most fashionable vacation spots in all of Europe. Dubrovnik's resurgent popularity should come as no surprise, however - this "jewel of the Adriatic," as the coastal resort town is often referred to in tourist brochures, is breathtakingly beautiful and a magnet for dreamy-eyed lovers in search of a romantic getaway.
