About Germany
Overview
Germany, in Western Europe, with its colorful and ancient architecture, scenic landscapes, mountain ranges and endless white sand beaches is said to be one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in the world, covering more than 2 thousand years of history. There are more than 20,000 castles in Germany, as well as the breathtaking Cologne Cathedral, the largest Gothic church in northern Europe, whose twin towers stand 515 feet tall. Construction on this magnificent structure began in 1248 and it was declared a World Heritage site in 1996. The capital city of Berlin, dating back to the 13th century, is home to iconic monuments, like the Brandenburg Gate, as well as reminders of its more infamous recent past, including graffitied remnants of the Berlin wall and many other sites relating to WWII.
Disclaimer: Space is a precious commodity in Europe, especially in its most dense cities, be prepared for smaller hotel rooms. The same goes for bathrooms and elevators, don’t be surprised if they feel cozier than those in the US.
