Germany – The Land of Poets and Thinkers

You probably thought that only paintings or movies captured the beauty of Germany’s castles and cathedrals. Many tourists prefer to visit the famous Rhine River. In addition to attracting tourists and photographers, The Rhine also attracts poets and painters due to its natural beauty. Due to the warm and sunny climate in this area, it is also known for its wine industry. Each village of the Rhine celebrates several wine festivals every year. In the region, the Rhine in Flames is the most popular series of celebrations.

The local foods in Germany are undoubtedly worth trying while you are in the country. German cuisine often contains meat and lots of different kinds of spices. It is common to have noodles, potatoes, or potato dumplings with meat-based main dishes. One great aspect of German restaurants is that you don’t have to guess what the food prices will be. Menus and prices of these food establishments must be displayed on the outside of the establishment.
