Germany has so much to offer the visiting tourist that it is practically impossible to follow all the possibilities. What is worth seeing and what should you pay particular attention to?
At the forefront is certainly Berlin, which can inspire almost anyone, even the most discerning tourists. As Germany's largest city, it offers travelers a range of opportunities to spend their leisure time. Shopping, relaxing in a park, touring the museums and art galleries or strolling among historical sites - these are just some of the many options available in the city center. Nearby Potsdam is also interesting.
When traveling through Germany, don't limit yourself to the capital. Cities like Hamburg or Frankfurt are just as attractive as Berlin itself and are all characterized by beautiful architecture, well-maintained urban greenery and a well-developed road and tourist infrastructure.
Cologne, a city on the Rhine, gained its popularity thanks to its largest Gothic cathedral in Europe. It was built between 1248 and 1880 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A big plus is the fact that the city's main attractions are next to each other, so you can see the whole area on foot.
Every motoring enthusiast should visit Stuttgart, where you will find the famous Mercedes-Benz Museum, which has more than 1,500 exhibits. While out and about in Baden-Württemberg, it is also worth visiting Castle Hohenzollern, which towers over the surrounding towns. It is 855 meters above sea level and can be seen from miles away. Heidelberg, with its sprawling Old Town, and Constance, which hosts every year the popular Lake Constance Night Festival, are also just a stone's throw away. The festival is linked to fireworks on Lake Constance.
Any traveler has probably heard of Bavaria, Germany's largest and most developed state. Here are cities like Munich, Regensburg or Nuremberg, which can come up with impressive monuments testifying to their eventful past. Things are more modest in Lindau, which in turn enchants travelers with its picturesque location on Lake Constance. If you want to see a fairytale building, you should travel to Schwangau, home to Neuschwanstein Castle, which is visited by about 1.3 million people annually.
What other cities should you include in your travel plan? Koblenz with its famous Deutsches Eck, Dresden with its magnificent castles and palaces, Lübeck with its four Gothic churches and Schwerin with its bastion from the 10th and 11th centuries.
If your appetite for adventure has not yet been satisfied, be sure to visit Bremen, which will enchant you with its charming alleys, or Münster, one of the most beautiful cities in Westphalia. But don't forget the smaller towns like Wismar or Bamberg, which also have their own charm and a unique atmosphere that you won't experience even in the most developed metropolises.
