Germany Travel Guide: Reviews, photos, & videos
For those who want epic mountains, expansive plains, sweeping coastlines, fascinating history, and – of course – delicious beer, in their vacation, you’d be hard pressed to find any place more ideal that Germany. Whether it’s checking learning about the history of Nazism and oppression in one of the many fascinating guided tours in Berlin, sampling some delicious brew at the Hofbräuhaus in Munich, or gazing at the gorgeous cathedrals in Cologne, Germany welcomes all with open arms and send all away with a desire to come back. Split up into a federation of sixteen states – each with a distinct and unique culture – Germany is the largest Central European country (both in population and size) and also boasts a booming economy thanks to the aforementioned capital of Berlin and the financial capital of Frankfurt (sometimes referred to as “Mainhattan”).
For those eager to check out the diverse real estate in Germany, make sure to be on the look out for deals on various German vacation properties – including the seemingly endless supply of high-rises and condos in Frankfurt. For those hoping to enjoy the bountiful amounts of delicious beer in Germany, make sure to head over to Southern Germany’s biggest city of Munich which is home to the annual Oktoberfest (held in October obviously) – Europe’s most visited festival and the world’s largest fair. Then – for the history buff – head over to Bavaria to the city of Nuremberg for a fascinating insight into the past. Although over 90% of the old-town was destroyed during World War Two, a vast reconstruction project has helped reassemble such stunning monuments as the Gothic Kaiserburg Castle. And the wine and nature lover shouldn’t miss a visit to the Rhine Valley – famous for the lovely Rhine River and a delicious sampling of German wines.
