Here are the 100 best things to do in Germany that will show you the charm, beauty and cultural diversity of this country.

Germany is rich with surprises and contrasts just waiting to be discovered by the discerning tourist. A country of enchanting little villages nestling between lofty and imposing mountains, fairytale castles and churches and lush vineyards rolling down towards the banks of the Rhine or the Mosel, Germany also boasts of the more rumbustious Munich Beer Festival and the Cologne Carnival, a very fine choice of gateaux, sausages and beer and a powerful and somewhat spooky folkloric tradition.

43. Wernigerode

In the Harz mountain region of Saxony-Anhalt at the foot of their most majestic peak, the “Brocken”, lies the enchanting small town of Wernigerode. With its numerous small cobbled streets of half-timbered houses, its quaint castle and market place, its lofty position in the mountains at 250 m above sea level and its picturesque location on the Holtemme river, Wernigerode was dubbed by the poet Hermann Löns “the brightly-coloured town of the Harz”.Nearest cities are Brunswick (55 minutes) and Hanover (1 hour 35 minutes) by road.

44. Bad Gandersheim Open Air Theatre

The little town of Bad Gandersheim at the foot of the Harz mountains is known not only for its spas and hot springs, but also for its famous open air theatre productions. These have been taking place annually in front of Bad Gandersheims`s small cathedral since 1959; they run from the start of July to the end of August. With up to 55,000 visitors (2006), Bad Gandersheim`s open air theatre is the fifth largest in Lower Saxony.

Bad Gandersheim can be accessed by train from Hanover or Brunswick in just over an hour. The nearest airport is Hannover-Langenhagen.

45. 1888 Water-Powered Funicular (Wiesbaden)

North of the beautiful city of Wiesbaden lies the Neroberg hill and the two are connected by the Neroberg funicular railway line. The funicular has been running since 1888 and was declared a technical monument by the state of Hessen in 1988. It is one of the few water-powered funiculars still in existence.

Wiesbaden lies only an hour by train from Frankfurt; the closest airport is Frankfurt am Main.
