Here are some of the great attractions and activities that you can enjoy in Germany.

Berlin

A visit to Germany’s buzzing capital, Berlin, will help you understand why so many people relocate to Germany’s largest city. Berlin is packed with fun activities and incredible culture.

Take a walk around the Gendarmenmarkt to experience its iconic twin churches and statue of the poet Friedrich Schiller, while beautiful music awaits at the Konzerthaus Berlin. Museum Island, located on the Spree River, is home to five famous museums with a variety of fascinating collections, including Egyptian, Greek, and Roman artifacts.

Shoppers will want to spend some time at Kurfürstendamm, Berlin’s sophisticated answer to Oxford Street. This shopping destination has a range of stores, including flagship boutiques and department stores, and a trendy selection of vintage second-hand shops.

The city also has vibrant nightlife, with unmissable shows at venues like the CHAMÄLEON Theater, luxury bars like the Mondhügel Bar, and world-class restaurants, including A Mano, Byblos Restaurant, and Restaurant Facil.

Hamburg

In the north of the country lies the naval city of Hamburg, the second-largest city in Germany. When visiting this city, you can spend a day admiring pretty canals and red-brick architecture from the shore, or take in some of the sights on a boat tour on the Elbe River. As night falls, visit one of the many theatres or concert halls, such as The English Theatre of Hamburg, the Thalia Theater, and the Elbphilharmonie. Also, a visit to the St. Pauli district and the famous Reeperbahn street isn’t to be missed, as this is considered one of the premier areas for late-night entertainment that’s packed with restaurants, bars, and clubs.

Dusseldorf

Düsseldorf is a sophisticated city known for its fashion industry, high-end shopping on Königsallee, and a thriving art and culinary scene. The city's Altstadt (Old Town) is packed with upscale bars and restaurants, while the Rhine promenade offers picturesque views.

Frankfurt

Frankfurt is a global financial powerhouse, home to the European Central Bank and a skyline filled with skyscrapers. Luxury shopping in Goethestrasse, the historic Römer square, and the Städel Museum’s impressive art collection make it a diverse destination. If you’re here for business and don’t have much time to explore, visit Frankfurt Cathedral and the Main Tower for panoramic city views or browse Goethestrasse’s designer stores.

Cologne

Cologne is a year-round crowd-pleaser with its cathedral, Christmas markets, and carnival. Cologne combines history, art, and modern luxury. The breathtaking Cologne Cathedral, world-class museums, and the upscale Schildergasse shopping district make it an attractive destination.

Stuttgart

Automobile enthusiasts should take a trip to Stuttgart, the capital of the western state of Baden-Württemberg, where car giants Porsche and Mercedes-Benz have headquarters and museums. The region also offers year-round wine tasting, with notable vineyards dating back to 3AD. Visit Stuttgart between September and October to join the revelries of Cannstatter Wasen, a less touristic wine and beer festival ideal for those looking to avoid the hype of Oktoberfest.

Munich

Germany’s second-largest city, Munich, is the place to head for beer and all things Bavarian. Oktoberfest is the world’s largest folk festival, which attracts a staggering six million revellers each year. For a lower-key cultural experience, tour Gothic, neo-Gothic, and Renaissance architecture, including the 17th-century Marienplatz and magnificent Nymphenburg Castle.
