Ha creato questa panoramica di dove andare in Germania

While traveling around the world for many many years, I’ve been working on my dream project: creating a one-stop resource for travellers. Germany being my neighbour country, I have visited many times (and I love it). I now created this overview [ [https://www.takeyourbackpack.com/backpacking-in-germany/](https://www.takeyourbackpack.com/backpacking-in-germany/) ] for anyone who is interested in visiting Germany (with some detailed info for every highlight), hopefully you will love it as much as I did.

PS: obviously, I haven’t been able to travel to all parts. So if you know some great spot, I haven’t listed, let me know! Much appreciated as in this way I can make the overview more complete and up-to-date for everyone.

I was gonna shit on your sellection and be like oh, it’s just the tp 50 things to do in Germany, but then I decided that I have been an asshole on the internet too much and I should probably stop.

Seriously, though, what’s next? You gonna tell people traveling to America that NYC is worth a visit?

Nice map! I wish you all the best on your travels.

Apparently you have missed the Rhine-Ruhr region and Frankfurt-Rhine-Main metropolitan area. These are interesting as well. A true treaure trove.

Edit: First post – wording too harsh.

There isn’t really much exploring possible at Neuschwanstein. You can only get in with a (pricey) guided tour.

Frankfurt and Wiesbaden! Frankfurt is not as bad as its reputation, it has a beautiful skyline and I love that the city centre is a mixture of old buildings like the Römer and towers. Wiesbaden is also really beautiful.

Cool website! Just wanna offer really minor translation feedback

“Ich bin in Ordnung” sounds a bit unnatural, when asked “How are you?” you would rather want to reply with “Mir geht es gut”

You mixed formal and informal speech, when speaking with a stranger it’s advised to use formal speech unless offered informal

That would make:

Wie geht es dir? -> Wie geht es Ihnen?

Hast du Wasser? -> Haben Sie Wasser?

The rest is already formal 🙂

Since your area between Hamburg and the Rheinbogen seems pretty empty, some major things to add:

* Zeche Zollverein, Essen. Cultural landmark. UNESCO cultural heritage site for industrial heritage. They also have nice concerts there.
* Landsschaftspark Nord, Duisburg. Cultural Landmark. Former Industrial Complex, that is now a park. And imho the best park in central europe. You can climb the former industrial towers. Its renaturzalized industry. Also they filmed some movies there, e.g. in the Hunger Games.
* Externsteine/Teutoburger Wald. Nature Landmark. Looks nice. Nice to hike. Cultural significance, etc.
* Schloss Corvey. Cultural Landmark. One of the oldest monasteries on the right side of the rhine. Hoffmann von Fallersleben lived there. It was the main dynasty seat of the current aristocrat with the most titles on earth.
* Münster. City. The whole city. From its historic imporance (e.g. our current state system was signed there 500 years ago), to its historic landmarks and lovely cultural events.
* Marburg. Imo one of the 5 most beautifully looking cities in Germany. Center of cultural reformaiton. First protestant university.
* Aachen. City. Also an old and lovely city, capital of the frankish empire.
* Rüdesheim. No idea how to classify it. Center of the rhenish wine area. Imho the best area to hike in Germany, both along the rhine and in the hills. Lots of tourist stuff, while still feeling down to earth.
* Lüneburger Heide. Nature. All along nice to be in.
* Baltrum. No cars allowed, you can walk to the shore via the Watt or go around the island in half a day. By far the best frisian island.
