Top spots in Germany

WHAT’S #Germany’s top tourist attraction? The Berlin Wall monument? The Brandenburg Gate? Berlin’s Kurfürstendamm shopping area? Hamburg’s Red Light district? What about – yes, it’s very unlikely – the HQ of the European Central Bank in Frankfurt?

The answer, based on polls by the German National Tourist Board, is the Europa-Park theme park in Rust, South-West Germany.

Second and third on the list are Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria and Cologne Cathedral.

Also rated by tourists are Heidelberg Castle and Old Town, the old town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Lake Constance with Mainau Island and the Monastic Island of Reichenau, and … yes … what’s left of the Berlin Wall, and the Brandenburg Gate.
