Germany
@ Peter and anyone else who's interested
Places to go to when visiting Germany (aside from the place your mother is from)
Big cities
- Hamburg
The ultimate! You either love it or hate it. Lived there for nearly a decade and loved it. Lots of happenings, very active clubbing scene, the wrold's largest red light district.. Definitely visit in the summer, as it is a very rainy city.
This is one to go to for the atmosphere, less for the sights. Soak in the harbour district, go clubbing in St.Pauli or Altona, enjoy the inner city in the sun, eat some ice at the city park.
- Berlin
Born there, but number 2 on my list. Go there in the late summer or late spring. Also one for touristy sights, museums, etc..
Nature
You might want to go to east Germany for this. Beautiful. But when you are in Berlin, yer already there. Just discover some of the surrounding scenery.
Castles
Southern Germany, check out the southern part of Hessen.
As you see, I am not a big fan of southern Germany, being a northerner myself. Hit me up if you go any time and I will provide more info.
