A great number of visitors will be particularly interested in Germany’s historical sights such as it’s cathedrals and castles, or it's traditions such as Bavarian food and the beer culture. But at the same time, it is a very modern country that offers a cutting-edge music scene, superb night life, avant-garde art and a significant body of left-wing literature.

The great public transport system makes it easy to get around and to enjoy the pulsating, major cities such as Berlin, Hamburg, Dresden and Munich, as well as idyllic, more traditional areas of the country such as the Black Forest, Thuringia, and the Rhine Valley.

Although often said to be reserved, Germans are generally personable and open. Manners are important, since in public it still remains a rather formal culture.
