From buskers on street corners and idyllic bridges to caf\u00e9 gigs and concerts, there\u2019s always music in the air. One of the most atmospheric things to do (and one of the easiest to find) is enjoy live jazz.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many caf\u00e9s host weekly jazz bands who play multi-hour long sets. Depending on the establishment, you\u2019ll be able to reserve for dinner or just opt for a round of drinks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hotel concierges can be a great help locating local caf\u00e9s with live music nights, though social media can point you in the right direction if you\u2019re renting an apartment on your own.
