The place d'Armes is the central square of Luxembourg City. It is fill to the point of saturation with cafes and restaurants. As many of the restaurants here are quite good and I highly recommend that you come here more than once. Overall I think that the place d'Armes is possibly one of the best places in all of Europe to people watch.
Luxembourg has a little bit of everything: it has fascinating cities, it has a lovely nature - there is so much you can enjoy and it does not take so long, because the distances are very short! Convincing my husband, that it really was a good choice to vacation here!
Echternach lies at the right bank of the sûre at the border with Germany.Echternach lies at the most beautiful part from Luxembourg that aria is called Little Swiss.It is a good starting point for hiking to Mullertal.The basilica at the picture is the St Willibrordus basilica, badly destroyed at the second world war, however the St Willibrordus grave stayed unhurt!Echternach is famous because of the “Springprocession” every Tuesday after Whitsunday thousands of pilgrims visit Echternach to watch the procession.They walk in time to the music 5 steps forward en jump 3 steps backwards.This exist since the 8 century and is dedicate to ST. Willibrordus.
Grevenmacher, wine, wine and some champagne. On the westbank of the Moselle-river are the wineyards of Luxembourg. And Grevenmacher is one of the centres of making this tasty fluid. As a winelover I enjoy this place every time and visit time by time another winehouse/yard. Moselwine is fruity, light and tastes sweeter then many French wines. On the other side of the river is Germany (also famous for it's Moselwines). Close to the famous Champagne-region in France, the Luxembourgian champagne is also perfect for celebrations and special events. Grevenmacher has - among others - the wineyards of Bernard Massard, that produces a lovely champagne. They also have excursions in which they explane the millenia old wine-making-traditions. Drinking a bottle of wine on a pleasant evening on the camping with some new friends.
Luxembourg City is an excellent place to shop, Everything from Cigarettes to alcohol to groceries to clothes is much cheaper than the rest of Europe. Definetly cheaper than Holland! Ekhlaque and I had come here first right after our wedding - the week after we reached Europe. So it was like a honeymoon - as we couldn't go on one before....But we didnot have a camera then:( We stayed in a cheap hotel near the Gare and had a blast! Walked around the city and took everything in!!
Just when I wished I'd gone somewhere else, I took a walk around the Grund and fell in love with the place. The Grund is an old artisans quarter down in a river valley. From there streets climb steeply up the cliff face and around the old fortifications to the Old Town.
The Center is really different from other places i have been to like Taiwan or France... not many cars inside the Center, but around and the street are so... neat ahahahah :) ahha Walking in a maze in the Center, we were almost lost and could not get back to France and watch local soccer game in the evening.
Peking restaurant in Lux, i found the staffs there speak cantonese :) florist ... picture of my masterpiecei took this pic in the afternoon... i like this pic alotmay be i should hand in this photo for photography contest. heheheeheheh
go to the Grund in the Petrusse Valley and have beer in Scott's Pub! Big small city. Luxembourg as a town is not very big, but it has a very international stmosphere, which makes it seem much bigger than it actually is.
visit the city of Vianden. It has a castle which you can visit. And the town is just like it was years ago. Old buildings house restaurants and hotels. It is situated on a hillside and the castle overlooks the entire town.
