Our experienced authors have been on the road again for the revised new edition: they have traveled extensively, conducted thorough research, and fundamentally revised and updated all existing articles. In addition to 48 new "Places," several new images have also been found and replaced. This revised edition is once again an inspiring potpourri of the familiar and the surprising. It includes landmarks such as the Cologne Cathedral and historically significant buildings like the Berlin Wall Memorial. Well-known events like Oktoberfest in Munich are featured alongside top-class hotels and restaurants. Besides the well-known highlights, there are also tourist gems like Germany's longest suspension bridge in Hunsrück or an underground raft ride in the salt mine in Berchtesgaden. The urge to discover new things is as old as humanity itself. However, whether a trip is memorable has nothing to do with the number of kilometers traveled. Sometimes, those who wander far overlook all the sights right in front of their own doorstep. Often, there are remarkable attractions right at home. This book proves that, taking you to the 1000 most beautiful and interesting sights in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, serving as a rich source of inspiration for your next vacation or short trip. Across 1000 pages, you will find many suggestions, destinations, and all the necessary information for your travel bucket list. The current edition presents itself in a modern format - with a generous colorful layout featuring only one travel destination per page, each accompanied by a high-quality color photo. Frequent travelers and list lovers will appreciate the checklist at the end of the book. The travel guide is inspired by the bestseller "1000 Places To See Before You Die.".
