The New Germany

by DesertRat - last update: Jan 10, 2003

Folk Dancers in front of the Quedlinburg Town Hall
The former East Germany hides lots of superb towns that are virtually unknown to visitors outside Germany and only "heard of" by Germans themselves. This new opening photograph is of the town hall in Quedlinburg during a folk dance festival that happened to be going on while my wife and I were there in late June 2000.

Pros:"Something for everyone: culture, scenery, great outdoors. It's all there!"
Cons:"Often expensive; communications problems in some regions; lots of starch and fat; few vegetarian options.."
In A Nutshell:"Germany offers much to soothe the soul."

 Excellent Berlin commentary. Everyone should try to take the opportunity to stroll down Unter den Linden at least once a lifetime.
