Top Things To Do

Top Things To Do: • Explore the past at Berlin’s PergamonMuseum, with its antiquities, Near East and Islamic Art collections. Situated on the capital’s MuseumIsland, it is surrounded by several other fine museums and galleries (website: www.smb.spk-berlin.de).

• See how the other half lived at baroque CharlottenburgPalace, on the east side of Berlin. It is the biggest surviving palace in the capital, and was built for Sophie Charlotte, wife of Prussia’s King Friedrich I, in the late 1660s.

• The HarzMountains, Black Forest (Schwarzwald) and the BavarianAlps are some of the best areas for walking, skiing and other winter sports. The network of marked walkingtrails amounts to some 132,000km (82,500 miles).

• Enjoy spectacular riverside fireworks displays on a dinner cruise during the ‘RheininFlammen’ (Rhine in Flames) festivals that take place throughout the summer at various points along the river.

• Ride on a historic narrow-gauge steamtrain. Germany has a number of preserved railways, notably in Saxony, the HarzMountains, and on the coast of Mecklenburg-LowerPomerania.

• Take the kids to Europa-Park, Germany’s biggest theme park, at Rust, near Freiburg in the southwest. For the brave it features Europe’s highest rollercoaster (website: www.europapark.de).

• Take in a football (soccer) match. Germany’s top teams include BayernMunich, Hamburg, BayerLeverkusen, HerthaBerlin and WerderBremen. Many stadia are new, built for the 2006 World Cup tournament staged in Germany.

• Pay homage to Germany’s famous car manufacturers at MercedesBenzWorld in Stuttgart, the new BMWWelt in Munich and Autostadt in Wolfsburg, home of Volkswagen.

• Visit some of the many vineyards on the banks of the Rhine, Neckar and Moselle rivers, following one of the numerous specially designated WineRoads (Weinstrassen) in the region.

• If in Germany in the weeks before Christmas, browse the ChristmasMarkets (Weichnachtsmarkt) which are staged in almost every town and city of any size. Warming glühwein and apple fritters are a must on a cold winter’s day.

• Be pampered. Germany has over 300 spas and healthresorts that offer a wide range of traditional and modern treatments. The most famous spa town is Baden-Baden, in the southwest (website: www.baden-baden.com).

• Germany is one of the great brewing nations. Indulge in some of its finest beers during Munich’s two-week Oktoberfest, which takes place from late September and attracts 6 million visitors to the Bavarian capital each year (website: www.oktoberfest.de).

• If able to get tickets (waiting lists are long), head for northeastern Bavaria and Bayreuth, to witness the famous WagnerOperaFestival, which takes place every year from late July to August (website: www.bayreuther-festspiele.de).

Drive down the RomanticRoad, which connects the northern area of Bavaria with the south, and is the most famous of all the German scenic roads. The towns along the way give visitors an excellent insight into the region’s history, art and culture.

• In late August each year, celebrate the traditional BakedFishFestival (Backfischfest) at Worms, the biggest wine and food festival on the banks of the Rhine (website: www.backfischfest.de). It is dedicated to the Fishermens’ Guild, Germany’s oldest such organisation.
