Luxembourg

The tiny Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (the world’s only Grand Duchy and a sovereign state since 1815) is notable for the number of beautiful landscapes that get crammed into its small space. This includes the Petite Suisse Luxembourgeoise which is an area in Eastern Luxembourg that translates into “Mini Switzerland”. Romantic forests, dazzling waterfalls and unusual rock formations make this a beautiful nature area to hike in.

The city of Luxembourg also has an impressive setting, situated atop a plateau that is accessed by many bridges. The Chemin de la Corniche is a pedestrian pathway that has been called “Europe’s most beautiful balcony” due to the outstanding views of the lower town and river valleys.

You can also tour Vianden Castle, built in the 11th century, but restored to how it looked in the late 1700s complete with furniture and tapestries. Also explore the Vallee de la Sure, an attractive river valley containing many pretty small towns and villages.

Diekirch, Luxembourg
Diekirch is in the north of Luxembourg and is famous among tourists and locals alike. Home to the "huge" Luxembourg army (LOL), it has an army museum (how come?) and played a role in the Battle of the Ardennes in WWII. The locals are called donkeys from Diekirch due to a bronze statue of a donkey in the city center and because, as they say themselves, they have large ears (see by sourself!)
Luxembourg, Luxembourg
Capital city of Luxembourg and one of the 3 capitals of the European Union. Even though it's fairly small (only about 80,000 people live there), it has a lot to offer: culture (European capital of culture in 1995 and again in 2007 together with Sibiu in Romania) with concerts, theatre, etc..., architecture ( palace of the royal family with House of Deputies,...), parks, a countless amount of restaurants for every taste bars, numourous clubs with all styles of music. The setting is quite interesting: it is more or less divided in two, separated by a valley and is called the Gilbraltar of the north, with remains of the old fortress. Once a year for 3 weeks in August/September, a big event takes place which is famous among young and old in Luxembourg and neighbouring countries: our "Schueberfouer" (www.fouer.lu), which was organized for the first time back in 1340 by Jean the Blind (talking of tradition)! But the main event in Luxembourg is and probably always will be our Grand Duke's birthday which is held on the 23rd of june with parties and fireworks all over Luxembourg on the 22nd, with huge crowds gathering in Luxembourg City partying all evening and all night long until the morning hours of June 23rd, the day the military Parade takes place Come and visit Luxembourg. It's small but you won't be disappointed. served by Luxair, KLM, Swiss, Austrian, SAS, VLM, British Airways and TAP easily rechable from Paris by train (TGV 2h10) and Brussels (2.5-3h every hour, about 15 trains a day) Francfort-Hahn, the lowcost airport of Ryanair is about 2 hours away by shuttlebus (www.flibco.com)
Luxembourg, Luxembourg
If you live nearby, its well worth a visit, since it is build on a big rock, with bridges connecting it, which gives an impressive entrance. Lots of shopping possibilities and for christmas a nice market with glühwein, hot chocolate, ... Oh and also cheap shopping, since the taxes are way lower. For gas you shouldn't take the trip, its already the same like elsewhere in Europe, although if you have to pass through it might be a good idea to stop in the capital and tank there (since the highways are the most expensive) Ciao

Well if you are that desperate to travel to Luxembourg for vacation, make sure to visit the Cafe Exus in Remich :) Probably the best pub in whole Luxembourg ;-)
Luxembourg, Luxembourg
Most locals speak English are familiar with, but it is always a good show of character to learn some basic phrases in the native vernacular. A courteous "thank you" goes a long way. I have found many natives to be equally friendly if you show the same compassion and respect for their culture. The common misconception about "Americans" is that people are arrogant. Help to discourage this misconception by showing respect for other cultures. However, as in any unfamiliar locations, be aware of your personal belongings. Crowded streets are safe bets for pick pockets. Always check for your belongings every few minutes to make sure your IDs (passports) and money are always secure.
Berdorf, Luxembourg

A fascinating walk around the city will show up elements of Luxembourg´s rich history from its foundation in about 900 AD to the many conquerors who annexed the state to the present day. Lots of cheap cigars and petrol (no tax on tobacco or petrol). Most of the residents speak French, English and German in that order.

Place d'Armes a.k.a “Parlour of the City” is the center of the city and meeting point for everyone. Here can be found tons of cafes, shops and of course tourists. According the plans of Sebastian van Noyen from Utrecht it became true in 1671 when Jean Charles de Landas had been ruler. And why to pay people for decorating when French Army should do that as witty Louis XIV got this idea. The French Army paved the square and planted trees that the square should be a great place for parades and other cultural events. Nowadays there is a street animation all the summer and a lot of other cultural actions around ...
