Like the first, WWII ended in tears for the Germans, as their country came into Allied control, who decided it'd be a good idea to split the country and its capital, Berlin, into the Soviet East and American-British-French West. The division hit the dust in 1989, as the ominous Berlin Wall was torn down. The ensuing decade and a half has seen Germany pick up the remains of a violent century, as it enjoys being a united Germany once again. For travellers, Germany is all the more attractive for its leading role in the last century. But the country's also produced some of the world's most important artists, composers, writers and thinkers, and an abundance of natural beauty makes Germany one of Europe's top picks.

Could it be the chic boulevards of Paris, the sparkling ski slopes of the Alps, sunlit vineyards and sun-baked beaches, a dusty game of boules , or coffee and croissants in an undiscovered village? Or perhaps it’s a tour of the majestic châteaux of the Loire that appeals, the glamorous jet-set lifestyle of the Mediterranean, or a relaxing picnic in Provence, where the air is fragrant with wild herbs and lavender? Consider also the delights of other lesser-known regions such as Franche-Comté, Gascony or Berry, deep in the green heart of France – regions firmly rooted to the land, whose sleepy villages offer visitors a chance to sample the true douceur de vivre of provincial France. There is no denying that France is a land of great contrasts, offering an endless choice of enticing destinations, a rich diversity of landscapes, cuisines, climates and peoples, with an exceptional cultural heritage. It’s easy to see why the French stay at home for their holidays and why they so felicitously call their country La Belle France . Geography France, the largest country in Europe, is bordered to the north by the English Channel ( La Manche ), the northeast by Belgium and Luxembourg, the east by Germany, Switzerland and Italy, the south by the Mediterranean (with Monaco as a coastal enclave between Nice and the Italian frontier), the southwest by Spain and Andorra, and the west by the Atlantic Ocean. The island of Corsica, southeast of Nice, is made up of two départements . The country offers a spectacular variety of scenery, from the mountain ranges of the Alps and Pyrénées to the attractive river valleys of the Loire, Rhône and Dordogne and the flatter countryside in Normandy and on the Atlantic coast. The country has some 2900km (1800 miles) of coastline. Sponsored Listings ( Add your listing ) advertisement Advertisement -- advertisement Why iExplore?
