So finding a spot with a nice view out over the city is no easy feat. If you&#8217;re not up for spending hours in line to get up to the observation deck of Fernsehturm or the roof terrace at the futuristic Reichstag Building, we have the perfect option for you. Head to the trendy Kreuzberg district and pay a visit Viktoriapark. This green space is actually the highest natural elevation in Berlin, making it the perfect spot for a picnic watching the sun set over the city below. The best view can be found at the Prussian National monument for the Liberation Wars in the southern edge of the park, a towering structure with a waterfall cascading from its base.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tour the Mines Under Munich\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"939\" height=\"629\" class=\"wp-image-14051\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2019\/08\/Picture-2.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture-2.png 939w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture-2-330x221.png 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture-2-360x240.png 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption>Photo Credit: High Contrast [<a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/de\/deed.en\">CC BY 3.0 de<\/a>]<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The German Museum (Deutsches Museum) in Munich is hardly an off-the-beaten path tourist attraction, but you might be surprised when you find out what is hiding below the surface. The Mining Exhibition is a 400-metre long journey through Germany&#8217;s mining history that takes you deep below the city. You&#8217;ll walk through recreations of actual mining environments, complete with miners, split over three levels connected by sloping ramps and narrow staircases leading you down 35-metres below street level.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hamburg&#8217;s Green Oasis\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" class=\"wp-image-14052\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-459494893-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-459494893-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-459494893-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-459494893-2048x1360.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-459494893-330x219.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-459494893-360x240.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Hamburg is said to be the \u201cnew Berlin\u201d, with a hip and funky vibe that has it moving up the list of must-visit cities in Europe. But, smack dab in the centre of the street art strewn facades and brick-clad buildings of this German city is a flowery oasis that provides the perfect escape from the urban hustle and bustle. Planten un Blomen is a flora-filled cultural mash-up where you can sit under the shade of a Mediterranean fig tree or sip an herbal delight at a Japanese tea house. Exotic plants are in full bloom all around this picturesque park, which even boasts an ice-skating rink during the winter months.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The World&#8217;s Largest Wine Barrel in Heidelberg<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" class=\"wp-image-14053\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-1024x685.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-1536x1028.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-2048x1370.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-330x221.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-515029567-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A small town in the heart of Germany&#8217;s Black Forest, Heidelberg is definitely worth a visit. It boasts a beautiful old town filled with colourful Baroque-era houses that give it a characteristically whimsical alpine feel. One of the most famous buildings, however, is the Heidelberg Castle. Now in ruins, it was once the most important Renaissance structures north of the Alps. The castle is also home to the Tun, the world&#8217;s biggest wine barrel, built in 1751, which holds a dizzying 220,000 litres of wine.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>An In-Cider Tip for Frankfurt\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-image-14055\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-2048x1367.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/GettyImages-178963767-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Beer is to Germany as wine is to France.
