Germany Travel Guide

Germany is filled with a strong sense of cultural heritage, where men still don lederhosen and women dirndls. There is beer by the stein under the shade of old chestnut trees. No matter what part of the country you visit, there are thick layers of history: from Roman relics to medieval castles and from Baroque palaces to communist-era apartment blocks. But, for all the tradition, Germany is a modern country. It's a leader in avant-garde fashion, culture, and art, reflected in its many museums and the vibrant Berlin art scene.
