I have lived all over the world the past 12 years and i have to say that Guadalajara or Zapopan where i live is my biggest favorite so far of all places. I have lived in Sweden Gibraltar, Mauritius, Dubai, Australia, Spain, Panama, Costa Rica, Serbia, Montenegro and the US and now recently moved to Mexico and love this city more than Mexico City and Monterrey which i also tried before Guadalajara. Its a modern and bustling metropolitan city with the feel of a small town charm and has everything you need and friendly people that give first class service and even try to speak english. Go check it out you wont regret it!! 👌🏼
What is Luxembourg known for?
-
Luxembourg
- Luxembourg, country in northwestern Europe.
- One of the world’s smallest countries, it is bordered by Belgium on the west and north, France on the south, and Germany on the northeast and east.
- Luxembourg has come under the control of many states and ruling houses in its long history, but it has been a separate, if not always autonomous, political unit since the 10th century.
- The ancient Saxon name of its capital city, Lucilinburhuc (“Little Fortress”), symbolized its strategic position as “the Gibraltar of the north,” astride a major military route linking Germanic and Frankish territories.
Luxembourg has so much to offer, here are some of the things Luxembourg is known for.
- Chemin de la Corniche: Promenading along Europe’s ‘most beautiful balcony’ in Luxembourg City before making the scenic descent to the Grund neighbourhood.
- Vianden: Swaying on a chairlift above this picturesque village, heading up to the forested hilltop, from where it's a gentle stroll to its castle.
- Echternach: Hiking into the enchanting Müllerthal's woodlands and rocky micro-canyons.
- Beaufort: Exploring Beaufort's neighbouring medieval and Renaissance castles and tasting the local Cassero (blackcurrant liqueur).
- US Military Cemetery: Paying homage to General Patton in this cemetery just outside Luxembourg City where he's buried with his troops.
- Moselle Valley: Sipping sparkling wines amid the Moselle Valley's hillside vineyards.
- Esch-sur-Sûre: Strolling through this pretty riverside village and its adjacent nature park.
Luxembourg City
No it's not just banks and Eurocrats. Wealthy Luxembourg City: is one of Europe's most underestimated capitals, with a fine range of museums and galleries and a brilliant dining scene. But most impressive is the town centre's spectacular setting, straddling a deep-cut river gorge whose defences were the settlement's original raison d'être. Come on a summer weekend when accommodation prices drop, the streets are often full of music and there's an ample flow of the local bubbly.
