Germany is a roller coaster of soul stirring scenery, spirit enriching culture, big-city beauties, romantic palaces and half timbered towns. This is the birthplace of Albert Einstein, Anne Frank, Beethoven as well as the famous fairy tale publishers the Brothers Grimm. Architectural highlights are dotted throughout Germany and they include Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque classics that often “rub rafters” with modern masters like Frank Gehry. Of course, not-to-be-missed Berlin is a scene stealing, head-turning combo of glamour and grit, teeming with top museums and galleries, grand opera and guerrilla clubs. This country delivers it all in one exciting and memorable package.
