Germany Holiday Highlights
Germans are often viewed as slightly austere but demonstrate another side through their festivals of celebration of everything from music, the arts and cuisine to the German beer.
• Berlin had modest beginnings as a trading centre in the 13th Century, but through time grew into a European powerhouse and finally stole centre stage throughout the turbulent 20th Century. Since reunification in 1990, it has evolved into a dynamic, sexy and creative city where a surprising light heartedness lurks beneath an austere exterior. This is a city which thrives on change.
