Need a place to visit over the holidays. If you happen to be in Munich or the Bavaria Region I recommend trying wine country for a relaxing Staycation. There are many charming villages and areas around the Main River.
The word STAYCATION has entered the tourism vocabulary, “a vacation spent in one’s home country rather than abroad, or one spent at home and involving day trips to local attractions”, defined by the Oxford Dictionary. Travel chaos is the norm, you may or may not get there or back. Living in Berlin, there are many nearby cities and destinations worth a visit during the Easter Holiday.
Barockgarten Grosssedlitz, near Dresden the Royal Garden is worth a day trip just to fell like Catherine The Great.
Strusland, the former Hansa City on the coast is a walkers paradise with a mixture of Swedish and German Architecture.
Dessau, the distinguished Bauhaus buildings makes a statement.
Wismar, another Hansa City with its massive towers and long beaches makes the list for its haunting feel.
Other Places I recommend. Glashutte, the small town is a major timepiece manufacture center.
Weimar, the birth place of Bauhaus Movement, historic city obtains a charming intimacy.
Scenes from my staycation in the port city of Hamburg.
I have not visited an aquarium in years. Stralsund has a marvellous sea museum dedicated to sea life over three floors. The curved building opened in July 2008 on the city’s waterfront.
The Ozeoneum is opened from 9 to 8. Expect long lines dues to Social Distancing rules.
I visited three local beer producers in Franconia in one day. Each brewery had different flavour characteristics.
