The German National Tourist Board is inviting visitors from India to take an enchanted tour of the nation’s rich history and fantastical landscapes. With 25,000 enchanting sites, from UNESCO World Heritage Sites to hidden gems, Germany’s historic treasures provide both romantic getaways and legendary tours filled with pure magic. Whether it is the Baroque-style Moritzburg Castle constructed on its own artificial island near Dresden or Kriebstein Castle that looms ominously over the River Zschopau in Saxony; the Barockgarten Großsedlitz in Heidenau or Germany’s oldest “porcelain palace”, the Schloss Favorite Rastatt near Baden-Baden. The wonderous sites promise unique experiences, from open-air concerts under starry skies to captivating exhibitions. Indian tourists can take part in the Hohenzollern Mountain Race, climbing 365 vertical metres to reach the courtyard of Hohenzollern Castle, visit the world’s first playing card museum to design their own cards at Altenburg Residential Castle; or experience music fusion at Spandau. Explorers can also discover other fascinating places such as Sanssouci Palace, which is actually a complex of palaces and gardens; immerse themselves in culture at regular musical performances and events at Wartburg Castle; experience the annual theatrical tribute paid to William Shakespeare at Neuschwanstein Castle; and visit Heidelberg Castle, which hosts a 2 series of unforgettable theatre, opera, and concert productions.
