The romance of the Rhine

The fairytale landscape of the Middle-Rhine has been the theme of poetry and song for centuries. The romantic town of Loreley and its saga is for many foreigners something as traditionally German as the Oktoberfest.

In 2003 the region was officially declared a world heritage sight by UNESCO. A visit is to be recommended, particularly during the Rhine-in-Flames festival, the name given to a collection of illuminated festivals and firework displays that take place along the river. Events, that will ignite your fantasy and perhaps even desire.
