8 Recommendations: 8 Favorable,
Europa-Park is the most popular theme park in Germany, maybe in whole Europe... Located in Rust, in the south-west of Germany between Freiburg and Strasbourg. It is usually open from just before Easter until the beginning of November (summer season) and from the start of December to the second week in January (winter season). The park is split into fifteen different areas, mostly named after European countries or regions. Along with the park and rides, Europa-Park is also a major resort. It boasts four hotels, a guest house, Tipi Village and campsite. The largest hotel is called Colosseo which includes a re-creation of a Roman colosseum. Across the park, there are many shows performed on a daily basis, such as an Ice Show, a Gladiator Show, an Acrobatics Show in an Italianate Theatre and a fully re-created Globe Theatre, based on that of William Shakespeare. The Magic 4D Cinema also opens during the evening and shows current blockbusters. You simply Have To VISIT!!!

Berlin
4 Recommendations: 4 Favorable,
Berlin is a city with that certain something, a city of contrasts you'll find elegant boulevards and counterculture scene sections, royal palaces and the dilapidated facades of housing in Prenzlauer Berg, hot nightlife in the inner city and idyllic lakeside scenery at Wannsee, elegant villas in Grunewald and streetwalkers in Oranienburger Straße. Berlin is a city of tempo, temperament and turbulence. And Berliners are like their city. In Berlin everyone can be happy after their own fashion - King Frederick the Great knew that and acted accordingly. And the famous 'Ber!in air, air, air` is great anyway! OnIy a few pieces of the Berlin Wall and two border watchtowers recall forty years of partition. The bare Death Zone has disappeared. Construction cranes are still circling above the city; a skyline of stunning new architecture has appeared. Since the Federal government moved to Berlin, the city has become an administrative and economic hub. Be at Pariser Platz or Friedrichstraße, Potsdamer Platz or the inner bend of the Spree, the new government and commercial buildings, shopping passages and designer hotels have changed the face of the city. Berlin has a legendary Nightlife since the -Roaring Twenties-. No wonder, there is NO CLOSING TIME for Pubs, Clubs, etc.

Alexanderplatz, 10178 Berlin
3 Recommendations: 3 Favorable,
Berlin's architecture is quite varied: though badly damaged in the final years of World War II, Berlin has reconstructed itself greatly, and it is now possible to see representatives of many different historic periods in a short time within the compact city center, from a few surviving medieval buildings near Alexanderplatz, to the ultramodern glass and steel structures at Potsdamer Platz.

Juliusspital
3 Recommendations: 3 Favorable,
Very recommended. Taste the Franconian dry wine. The second biggest vinery in Germany, founded by the catholic princebishop Julius Echter in the 16th century, still finances a hospital - that is the Juliusspital. In the eastern corner of the hospital you find this wonderful restaurant and winebar - not only for families, but also for a romantic evening with your boy/girlfriend. Great wines - famous under the name Franconian wines. Best are the Silvaner and Riesling. 350 years of winegrowing ! Mostly dry wines. Now also a dining that can be recommended ! with a wonderful wooden back terrace in the courtyard, looking into the garden. Wine bottles for sale. Also a good location for tourists to sample the Franconian dishes served with the dry wines. Wine tasting also available. And at certain times during the weekend tours through the historic wine cellars from 1578 !!!

Burgweg

Huge museum in the outer part of the castle called Marienburg (built in 1250 with lots of additions in the next centuries). It specializes on religious art and art from Tilman Riemenschneider, the medieval sculpture that created many famous madonnas, cut in wood, as well as works of art, statues of saints and holy men, cut in limestone and even in marble for the cathedral. Hugest collection of his works of art here in Würzburg, but Rockefeller also bought a lot of his art in den early 20th century and brought them to his museum in northern New York, called "The Cloisters".

Nikolaushof
2 Recommendations: 2 Favorable,
This fabulous high-class stylish restaurant is situated on the hill behind the famous pilgrimage church Käppele, with a great view over Würzburg from its outdoors seating area - a great place to enjoy either the typical German Kaffee + Kuchen (coffee and Cake) at 3 or 4 pm in the afternoon, or a romantic dinner later at night with the nightview onto the UNESCO world heritage Baroque palace called Residenz. Prices are a bit above average, but the dinner is worth it. On Monday nights there is a buffet-style barbecue mainly for the student crowd in the garden, with romantic lounge areas - relax on white mattresses under a tent-like roof ! real cosy and you can cut out views from your neighbors with curtains! Between this garden area and the other outdoor area on a wooden deck there is a pond with frogs and a small fountain spring... Sometimes they have wine tasting - and you can rent the restaurant for weddings or anniversaries. check for it yourself!

Martin-Gropius-Bau
2 Recommendations: 2 Favorable,
This beautifully constructed red stone building was erected according to the designs of architect Martin Gropius. Martin was a great-uncle of the Baus-haus architect Walter Gropius. He was a follower of Schinkel’s classicism as this building shows. The building was constructed in 1877–81 and was the Museum of Industrial Arts and Crafts until 1921. The terracotta frieze and the mosaics reflect this. After 1921 it became the museum of pre and early history until 1945. The studios on the top floor continued to be rented out to artists until 1933. The Gropius-Bau was severely damaged during the Second World War. During reconstruction the main entrance was moved from the north side to the south due to the proximity of the Berlin wall. However with the fall of the wall the visitor once again enters via the front entrance in Niederkirchnerstraße. A preserved stretch of the wall stands in Niederkirchnerstraße immediately to the east of the Gropius-Bau. Today the Martin-Gropius-Bau hosts important touring exhibitions. In this regard it can be thought of in much the same way as Burlington House in London, except that there may be as many as four exhibitions here at any one time. As many of the exhibitions are of educational importance it is likely that parties of school children will be present. The visitor will be struck by the spectacular atrium although much restoration work remains to be done. There is a bookshop that specialises in architecture, history, art and design and works relevant to the current exhibitions. The cloakroom is downstairs immediately after passing through the main entry doors. The public can use the restaurant without having to attend one of the exhibitions.
