    The Germans love hiking. And if the four-legged friends can’t keep up, it’s fine with him to come in a bag!

    Working in the garden is back in fashion

    Allotment gardens are booming in Germany. They are especially popular in big cities. To get a lot, some garden lovers have to wait several years.

    Allotment gardens are very minimalist

    For some, even a small bed is enough to grow radishes, tomatoes and maybe a few herbs.

    Meeting point at the Königsplatz

    There are places in every city that have established themselves as meeting places. In Munich one of these is the Königsplatz. The stairs in front of Glyptothek and Collection of Classical Antiquities invite many people to linger.

    German cities are proud of their numerous green spaces that serve as havens of relaxation. The English Garden in Munich, with its almost four square kilometers in area, is one of the largest inner-city parks in Germany.

    Germans love to barbecue. Despite the increasing number of vegetarians, meat retains the place of honor on the grill.

    Exploring the region by boat

    Those who find locomotion in the countryside too drab take instead an excursion steamer. The new perspective makes familiar places look very different.
