"Visit Karlsruhe with the VT insiders..." Karlsruhe Things to Do Tip by Tripack

I did a city tour with a brilliant guide named Katherin, who give use so much intersting info of her city.
I just write a quick summary on Karlsruhe:

The city was founded in 1715 with the building of Karlsruhe Palace decided by Karl Wihlem von Bade-Durlach. So the city is quite young in Eurpean histroy prospect... this feeling is reinforced by the rebuilding of the city after massive destruction of WWII. The main point is the Palace in Neoclassicism style with its large meadow and Bontanic Garden, from an air view the whole area appear as a perfect circle shining with streets all around the city, quite impressive.

Nowadays the 285'000 inhabitants are living here and will become soon one of the most visited city in Germany (virtually speaking) thanks to VTer's contribution ;-)
Karlsruhe means rest of Karl though as said in my title page Karlsruhe was not so quiet during our meeting ;-)

Aside to be the VT birthplace, the city hosts main justice administration as the Federal and Constitutionnal Court. On Maket Place you could admire the Town Hall, a modern protestant church and a surpising pyramid which is the tomb of Margrave Karl Wilhelm.

If you want more detail on specific point of interest, please surf on VT local guide Katherin Thanks again for the tour comments ;-)
