Steeped in history and home to fairytale castles, breathtaking scenery and a rich cultural heritage, Germany offers an unbelievable range of sensory experiences. Some of the popular things to do in Germany range from witnessing architectural marvels to sampling famous beers, touring spectacular museums and embarking on thrilling adventures. While Berlin has oodles of history, important landmarks, home to art, nightlife scenes and the Museum Island, Munich’s Oktoberfest and beer halls are legendary.

The German government works hard to protect the country’s wildlife. There are 97 nature reserves in Germany, the biggest of which is the Black Forest.
