Enchanting Elegance and Breathtaking
Views in Luxembourg


Luxembourg is a beautiful country with a lot to offer any traveler. The country's economic status is clearly defined as above most other countries giving Luxembourg a high standard of living and similarly high prices. However, the accommodations in Luxembourg are fantastic. The architecture is clean and crisp with a hint of an ancient town. Stone and rock formations are very common in the country along with flowing green hills and mysterious forests. This is also a country of vineyards so the wine is excellent, and the vineyard give a beautiful view to the scenery of the countryside.

 

The capital of Luxembourg is the city of Luxembourg. A guide can help you navigate the city to your favorite attractions and restaurants. The city has a lot to observe and explore like the Casemates Block, an underground fortification of tunnels that is currently marked as a World Heritage Site. The Ville Basse occurred because of the soft sandstone surrounding the Alzette River in Luxembourg. The river has diminished in size leaving a large basin that is quite breathtaking to observe. The Numunster Abbey with an impressive steeple and architectural layout is a great place to observe Luxembourg's unique designs and styles. The town is also filled with marketplaces and shops where you can buy a number of things including clothing, food, and unique souvenir trinkets.

 


Most visitors will probably be interested in the Cathedral of Notre Dame. It was completed in 1618 and is a grand piece of architecture in the city. The most notable museum in Luxembourg is the MUDAM, an acronym for Musee d'Art Moderne Grand-Duc. This museum showcases brilliant pieces of art and also has a changing international exhibition. The best time to visit is during the off season on a weekday afternoon. The Sofitel Hotel and Bar offers one of the most grand views of the city and is great for a quick drink or a meal.
