Hamburg

With its maritime charm, Hamburg is for sure one of the most beautiful cities in Germany and calls itself, as a port city, rightly "Gateway to the World”.

Frankfurt am Main

Definitely a city of contrasts, where tradition and the modern are nestled side by side in colourful harmony. Little wonder that Frankfurt is called “Mainhattan” with its skyscrapers of all shapes and sizes.

Berlin

The 20th century began and ended in Berlin. The German capital knows how to look backward and forward at once, how to remember and how to renew. Shaking off its heavy past, today Berlin is fast-changing, lively, and fun.

Cologne

A city that is truly addictive. Anyone who has ever lived in the cathedral city never wants to leave again. It is the unique feeling, the result of a cheerful way of life and Mediterranean flair that captivates everyone.

Dresden

The city is is the capital city of the "Free State of Saxony", situated in a valley on the River Elbe. Before and since the German reunification Dresden was and is a cultural and economic centre of Germany.
