Heilbronn is a scenic city in the northern Baden-Württemberg region of Germany. Boasting a robust wine industry and many interesting local landmarks, the city is a great stop to enjoy when in Germany. One of the most popular local attractions is the local Rathaus, or City Hall, which features a large golden clock.
Head just outside the city to discover some of Heilbronn's best vineyards. Weingut Drautz, Albrecht-Kiessling Weingut, and Weingut Kistenmacher & Hengerer are located on the hills east of the city, and offer gorgeous, sweeping views of hillsides, valleys, and Heilbronn below. Pfühlpark is also in the area east of the city, a large park that offers excellent walking trails and even the famous Trappensee: a small lake with a castle built on it.
Heilbronn is connected to Germany's Deutsche Bahn train network, so you can easily reach the city from Munich, Berlin, Essen, or other major cities. Intercity bus transportation also offers affordable travel to Heilbronn, with options including FlixBus and Sindbad.

Saarbrücken is the largest city in the German state, Saarland. Germany's border with France bounds Saarbrücken on the city's west side. The bulk of attractions, accommodations, and businesses are located along the river Saar, which gave the city its name.
One of its most iconic landmarks is the stone bridge over the river Saar, built in the 16th century. Nearby, you’ll see the Saarbrücken Castle, an imposing Baroque castle that now hosts the Historical Museum Saar. From the castle, cross the river to the right bank, where you can stroll around the historic old quarter of the city and visit the Old Town Hall.
When it comes to dining, Saarbrücken certainly will not disappoint. Since the city has frequently changed hands between France and Germany as borders were drawn and redrawn, the cuisine implements the best of both cultures. St. Johanner Markt is a lively area dotted with bars, restaurants, and bistros to experience the hearty fare of Saarland.
Saarbrücken offers plenty of ground transportation options to head east into Germany or west into France. FlixBus, Sindbad, and BlaBlaCarBus operate most intercity bus service from the city. Travelers can also access the efficient German rail network, Deutsche Bahn, for both short and long-haul train routes.
