Weil der Stadt is a very small city just west of Stuttgart. Looking at the name the
German translation would be “Because of the City”, but actually the name is derived
from old Latin and means “Villa”. Romans had once lived here and there are still
small traces that can be seen...

The Rhine Fall in Schaffhausen is the largest fall in Europe. First of all I must
recommend seeing the falls from the side of Switzerland. They have the best view of the
falls. From the German side its only possible to see the source of the falls, but not the
grandeur of the entire...

In Basel you can ride across the Rhine in a comfortable ship. These ships are quite
different than most ships that ferry you across a river. In Basel the ferries have been
long with out a motor and remain so even today. This lets you travel quietly and
comfortably across the Rhine...

All Weather Zoo is a zoo that’s name is meant to literally mean that the zoo is open in
all types of weather. So is the case when it is raining. I wouldn’t recommend going
here on a rainy day however. Most of the animals won’t be visible because many of them
will hide when it is...

This is a very beautiful church in the center of the city Leipzig. One of these reasons I
liked this church so much is the way that the architecture has been developed. Take for
instance the columns. At the top of each column are palm branches which is simply
something I have never...

From many of the people that I have talked with, they have called Bucharest a little Paris
of Europe. This may just be because of the pretty girls or the fact that Bucharest has
its own Arc de Triumph. Bucharest has many modern shopping centers which include Cora,

The Royal Palace in Bucharest is actually an art museum. The art museum has been divided
into two distinct galleries. This includes the European Art Gallery and Oriental Art
Gallery. These cover distinct artists from European history including very interesting
pieces of art. The...

The Bran Castle or also known as the Dracula castle is a really nice castle located near
the town of Bran in Romania. At first I expected everything I had seen from the movies,
blood, vampires, and a scary castle. In actuality this was a nice castle. I even learned

This square is at the center of it all. The area is always filled with people, a lot of
tourists, some locals and of course street entertainers who will dress up like a statue
just to try to earn a little money. I liked this square because right in the same area
are Royal Palace and...

The Royal Palace is a complete reconstruction of the palace that was originally built in
the 1500's. Don't expect too much in Dresden to be original. Most of everything here was
blown up during the second war which is one of the reasons that the city looks so modern.

I visited this hostel on my first trip to Berlin with an international program. The
hostel seems designed to handle large groups. We come with 50 students and it
accommodated us very well. Rooms usually have between 4 to 5 beds which are situated as
bunk beds within small rooms....

This is basically a guesthouse and provides all the same comforts that you would recieve
at home. Why stay in a hotel when you can stay in an apartment and get a better feel for
how Germans live at home? The apartment complex is situated at Prenzlauer Berg which is

This is located in the historic part of Innsbruck. What suprised me is that the Golden
Roof isn't even golden, rather it is just copper. The site itself could be considered a
tourist attraction based on the fact that there isn't a whole lot to see in this area. I
took a picture of...

The large tower in the city of Innsbruck offers a great view of the mountain and a view
from overhead of the Old City. There is also some history behind the tower. When
climbing up the tower you’ll learn that actually prisoners were at one point locked up
here. The best time to go...

The town of Tarnowskie is famous for its mining. The entire length of the tour through
the mine is 1.700 m. A fun part of the tour is the part that is covered by boat. Much of
the mine become flooded with water and therefore not all of the tour is accessible by
foot. Within the...

Did you know that there is actually a small desert in Poland? Neither did I until I came
upon this town. The desert itself is located between Błędów and Klucze. Here is also
one of the largest areas of sand in Poland. The desert is simply so strange because no

Rottenburg am Neckar is a small town that is overshadowed by its nearby neighbor
Tuebingen. I found the town to be a typical German town. Life in Rottenburg is slow and
can be felt with the pace of the people. No one seems to be in a rush. The church in the
town of Rottenburg...

This Synagogue is enormous. In fact it is the largest one in Europe. At point in
Budapest there was a tremendously large Jewish population also another reason for the
construction of such a large synagogue. Unfortunately the aftermath of World War 2
significantly lowered the Jewish...
