 Germany is one Europe Travel Destination

Germany Place of InterestGermany is one beautiful scenic country in Europe. Germany is one holiday destination that you will never regret with a mixture of rich heritage and festivals and urban beauty. It is full of breathtaking green sceneries and concentration camp, castles and architecture.

Germany Top Rated Tourist attraction:

  • Cologne fishes out pictures of hearty looking man with a very enormous mug of beer in hands for its one major beer producing city in Germany. Architecture and the Beer Festival is one of the many attractions in Cologne. Also a major Germany Tourist Attraction.

  • Black Forest. Did this sound like a cake? Yes, the dark shades and shadows of pine and fir I believe is the reason why dark colored black forest cake is named as such. This black forest in Germany is the famous home of the cuckoo clock. Accommodations and lodgings are available in this part of Germany.

  • Octoberfest which I heard starts in the month of September and culminates in the month of September. It is a celebration of the Bavarian Beer and takes weeks of celebration; one of the oldest festival celebration in Germany.

  • Berlin is Germany capital city and of course often mentioned in the world news. One might think that Berlin is a country rather than a city. It hs several German landmarks that tourist would love to see. History buffs has enlisted Berlin as one of their must visit city. History seems to know Berlin.

  • Lake Constance is between Austria, Switzerland and Germany and thus the source of Rhine River. One of the longest lake in Europe and very historical.

  • Neuschwanstein Castle is the Castle of sleeping Beauty. Wow, so Fairy Tales indeed come true in the structure of this Castle. It is one of the most beautiful castles in the world.

Germany can offer a probing tourist more than meets the eye.

 Germany A Dreamt Travel Destination

Germany is a country that i just read… well not really just read…but obsessed upon. My friends and I are planning a back packing travel in Germany. We are planning to circuit the country of its fine palaces, islands, towns and mountains and of course get the last minute fan of the Oktoberfest.

Besides a hearty laugh and a big mug of beer I wanna experience the German culture raw. I want to speak the German language with finesse and accent. Is that too ambitious for an English boy? It is a dream come true for me this time. Even without the finer things included in the travel in Germany. We actually wanted to rough it out with our gears lightly packed up on our backs and traverse the country from north to south and west to east. Germany tour this time is taken to another level with a classmates expertise on the cheap German accommodation, we are really into saving and experiencing an adventure.

We are also counting our lucky charms and perhaps run into German Festivals along the way. We also would like to take pictures of the ‘biggest and smallest’ in the German country. I would like to flash a very cheesy smile with Lake Constance as a backdrop. Where do you think is the most advantageous location for this?

Frankfurt International Airport being the 2nd busiest airport should also not forget on the lists of places to be photographed. And Christmas Season as the targeted holiday season as the Catholics in the Germany celebrates the longest Christmas.

A year in the German land is worth all the years of waiting. I just knew that Germany would be one of the destinations that I should visit before I die. I want to rub elbows with the German culture. I would like to step inside their castles. This time it will be a dream come true… sooner that I thought.

 Why Visit Germany?

Germany Travel
A history buff cousin can not just stop to rave a bout Germany. When we were 10 and eating ice cream, what he boast about was this historical aristocrat country. When we were preparing for college, he was not yet over with this obsession. The irony of it all I am going for Germany for a two months gap year before entering college then.

Maybe his obsession rub off itself unto me that is why when asked for the destination of a gap year and sort of holiday vacation I did not hesitated and blurted out this country’s name. Well, with hours of talk and information from this history buff cousin I seemed to know Germany like the back of my hand.

With history: Yes I was filled with it and it will be solidified with the actual visit of the places. Yes, three months from now and all the necessary papers, from the insurance to Germany destination are already ironed out. I would like to share some destinations that I am planning to visit in my Germany travel.

Munich is a good place to start getting to know Germany. It is a sophisticated, large business center with variety of museums, galleries, world class symphony and packed with lost of activities to do. The best castles are found in Munich city.

Augsburg is also another side of the German country that has a collection of wonderful churches, pleasant location and good food. It is one of the famous romantic Road.. A city named after an emperor- Augustus and the oldest city in the history of Bavaria thus offering so much for history buffs.

I also would like to visit other specific destination such as: Roland Statue and Bremen town Hall, St. Peter’s Cathedral, Bremen Town Musicians statue, Hohenschwangau Castle,Neuschwanstein Castle,Brandenburg Gate,Reichenau Island and Mainau on Lake Constance and Zollverein coal mine.
