From medieval castles to natural beauty, Germany has something for every traveler. DW-WORLD.DE follows six separate tours through the country's romantic, natural and historical highlights.
Call it the Unromantic Road. Germany's Route of Industrial Heritage traverses the Ruhr Valley, once the coal-dust covered center of European heavy industry. Today, it is a mecca of history and culture.
Forest-covered mountains, moors, cliffs, rolling hills, deep gorges -- the landscape of the Harz is nothing if not varied. And it is one of Germany’s most tradition-steeped regions.
Lower Saxony's towns are full of half-timbered houses and other historic treasures. DW-WORLD.DE makes a first excursion through the region from Celle to Luneburg to Hanover and Wolfsbuettel.
