What are some places that you loved visiting which are not necessarily very famous tourist destinations.

I will start with Wuppertal. Its a mid sized city with the Hanging trains. Its such a beautiful experience to travel with the Schwebebahn. It rides over a river which makes it even better.

What's a place you would suggest that can be touristy?

  2. Schwebebahn rout over the ugliest greyest and most anti social “city” parts in Germany . I’d go for the sky train in any airport same experience and a better outcome 🤣🤣🤣

  3. # Schleswig Holstein and North Sea: Sankt Peter-Ording, Westerheversand lighthouse, Friedrichstadt, etc

  4. Hm, so in comparison with many other beautiful cities, the Schwebebahn and the City offers too little as an explicitly worthwhile trip here.

  5. North Sea Islands are absolutely beautiful, particulary on non-rainy days.

    Many of them still run old-school stuff like small trains or horse carriages because often cars are not allowed.

  8. Xanten – medieval cathedral and huge archaeological park

  9. The Hermann Monument in the Teutoburg Forest. And the external stones that are nearby 😏

  10. I did this ride it was okay but not very very special.
    I rather spend my time in a Bavarian restaurant than this.

  11. Everybody I know I suggest to keep your distance with Wuppertal

  13. Mecklenburger Seenplatte.

    Basically all those lakes above Berlin, around the Müritz. Beautiful to take a boat or kayak and explore.

  14. Die Bahntrassenradwege auf stillgelegten Strecken. Stormarner Kreisbahn zB

  15. Hanover

    – Herrenhausen Gardens are pretty

    – Inner city, old town, a red line on which you can walk around the various sights in the city center

    – New town hall with an elevator that moves in an arc, there is also the Maschsee and Maschteiche nearby

  16. Hildesheim (I live here, when it’s not raining constantly it can be beautiful)

    Varel (My Grandma lives there, it’s also a beautiful city)

  17. the schwebebahn is literally the only reason why people go to wuppertal xD

  18. There are much beautiful regions in Germany: Baden Württemberg and Bavaria, if you can avoid Nordrhein Westfalen completely! Outside of Düsseldorf it’s bunch of shit Holes with depressed buildings and people

  19. While they might be popular among Germans and people who are interested in Germany more than the average tourists who come to visit Neuschwanstein and Oktoberfest, small towns in the Harz region like Goslar, Quedlinburg or Wernigerode are very beautiful and have this vibe what many people imagine when thinking about Germany.

    In general I find small towns to be much more pleasant than big cities in this country.

  22. Gütenbach – black forest. There is absolutely nothing, not even a restaurant and the only tourist attraction is a Jesus figure that got carved into a tree and the tree is slowly growing around it. That’s all they got

  25. Bad Reichenhall, everyone passes it on their way to Salzburg and Berchtesgaden

  27. If you like Wuppertal, you’re gonna love Offenbach. 100%.

  28. I had a really lovely time in Hessische Schweiz. Lovely views and great walking tracks.

    Besides that, I thought Greifswald, Eldena and Wieck were really cool. The marshes around Wedel are a vibe. Görlitz is beautiful, and so is Sauerland

  29. Ludwigsburg (Castle of the Kings of Wurttemberg and 18th century city center)

    Esslingen (beautiful Medieval city center)

    Nördlingen (complete medieval city in a meteorite crater

  30. How about Solingen-Gräfrath? Or the Müngstener-Brücke? Or generell ze Bergisch Länd, wo ze Mädchen schärfer als ze Klingen sind?

  33. Regensburg, Landshut, Aachen, Weinheim, Fulda, Koblenz, Nürnberg, Erfurt

    Also, I heard Freiburg and Hof are interesting

  34. Osnabrück gets forgotten in comparison to Münster, but it’s old city is quite beauitful, some wonderful churches, lots of great cafés, and seeing a historic castle in active use as part of the university is neat. Also the zoo there is rather nice as well.

  35. The “Ruhrtalradweg” is a 200km bicycle path. I’d recommend starting in the Sauerland (Winterberg) and biking down. It is fantastic, especially for people who are interested in both nature and (industrial) culture trips.
