Set on the enchanting Weser River, Bremen is worth visiting in any season. This German city offers a relaxed atmosphere during summer, colourful outdoor fun in spring, warm light walks in autumn, and romantic vacations in winter.
One of Bremen's most iconic sights is the statue of the knight, Roland, located in front of the city hall, facing the cathedral, St. Petri Dom Bremen. Of course, the cathedral itself is a must-see, and you can even climb one of its soaring towers for a remarkable view of the whole city.
The best explorations of Bremen wander through its various neighbourhoods and districts. The Böttcherstrasse is a short but significant street lined with unusual 20th-century architecture, perfect for an edgy Instagram shot. Schnoor, on the other hand, preserves Bremen's medieval character; unique shops and restaurants are tucked into fairytale streets of quaint buildings.
If you wander out in the Vegesack district, you'll find Maritime Mile, a 400-year-old man-made harbour. This area showcases Bremen's maritime prominence, best exemplified by the restored merchant ship, Schulschiff Deutschland.
International travelers can reach Bremen via the Bremen Airport, but the German countryside is best seen from a train seat. You can ride Deutsche Bahn, DB Intercity, FlixTrain, and Metronom, among others. It is also easy to reach Bremen on intercity coaches from carriers like FlixBus, Sindbad, BlaBlaCar Bus, Arda Tur, Union Ivkoni, and Citylines.

Link to image attributionGöttingen is a city in central Germany, and its highlight is the University of Göttingen, founded in 1737. The university was once the most-visited university in Europe. Its grand splendour is still visible today, especially in the Göttingen State and University Library and its Old Botanical Garden.
The city centre of Göttingen is another lovely spot to stroll around, with its many picturesque buildings and charming cobblestone streets. To explore the history and cultural significance of the city, check out the Göttingen City Museum. Make sure to stop in the marketplace in front of the Old Town Hall, too. In the corner of the square, you'll find Vierkirchenblick, a metal plate in the ground from which you can see the four most important churches in Göttingen.
Although Göttingen is relatively far from any of Germany's most significant cities, robust transportation still makes traveling there a breeze. Frequent Deutsche Bahn trains connect the city to Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Antwerp, and more. Intercity coaches operated by FlixBus and Sindbad offer additional ground travel at very affordable prices.
