Germany

Germany has been a popular tourist destination for centuries - and it is easy to understand why. Fairytale castles, picturesque villages, and awe-inspiring natural scenery.

Germany's picturesque scenery has inspired generations of painters and composers, while Germany s many spas and health clinics have long been a significant drawcard.

The capital city, Berlin, is a thriving, quirky global hub for culture, science and media. It is also a haven for architecture enthusiasts and history buffs. The famous Brandenberg Gate stands at the end of Berlin s most famous boulevard, Unter den Linden, near the historic Reichstag building. Remnants of the infamous Berlin Wall also remain, including Checkpoint Charlie. Visitors to this vibrant city can explore countless museums and historical sights, indulge in an array of cultural experiences, or party into the early hours.

Beautiful Bavaria is a must-see for anyone on a trip to Germany. Its capital city is Munich, home to the bacchanalian Oktoberfest. The city still boasts dozens of its famous beer halls, where visitors can enjoy local brews by the litre and eat pretzels, wurst, and other...

German specialties. Elsewhere in Bavaria, pretty Nuremberg is renowned for its annual Christmas markets and medieval architecture.

Much of Germany still looks like something out of a fairy tale. The ionic alpine castle Neuschwanstein, which was commissioned by Bavaria s King Ludwig II in the late 19th century, reportedly inspired Disneyland s Sleeping Beauty Castle. The Black Forest - home of the delicious Black Forest Cake and the setting for many of the Grimm brothers fairy tales - has over 7000 kilometres of marked trails for hikers to explore. Visitors can stroll through picturesque, medieval villages and shop for the region s famous, hand-carved cuckoo clocks.

Frankfurt-Am-Main, or Frankfurt, is the economic hub of Germany and one of the world s major financial centres. Hamburg, in the north of the country, is a thriving port city and the second largest city in the country. Visitors can enjoy a river cruise down Germany s many famous rivers, including the Rhine, Danube and Elbe, or see the country on a coach tour.

Getting around Germany is easy. Trains, including high speed trains, also run between cities and to other countries across Europe. Travellers can hire a car and have a go at navigating the country s famous autobahn most of which has no speed limit.
