GERMANY
In the heart of Europe, Germany offers small picture-postcard towns, elegant big-city charm, find wine and beer and a wealth of art and culture, plus the perennial pleasures of huge tracts of forest and castles along the Rhine. Germany also lies at the crossroads of Continental history. From Charlemagne and the Holy Roman Empire to Otto von Birmarck’s German Reich, Nazism and the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, no other nation has shaped Europe the way Germany has.
