Heidelberg

Surviving WW II almost undamaged, Heidelberg is how many other cities might have looked like before WW II. It is a typical fairy-tale like city, a city that is so atmospheric that it automatically creates that nice holiday-feeling. Touristic, small, cosy, and comparable to an Italian city like Pisa, or a Dutch city like Leiden. The city is holder of the oldest German University with a high standing reputation. It is situated along the Necker River in an very beautiful part of Germany.
