One of the best-preserved examples of Carolingian ... more Germany wears its riches well: elegant big-city charm, small picture-postcard towns, pagan-inspired harvest festivals, a wealth of art and culture and the perennial pleasures of huge tracts of forest, delightful castles and fine wine and beer are all there for the savouring. Deep in the heart of Europe, Germany has had a seminal impact on Continental history. From Charlemagne and the Holy Roman Empire to Otto von Bismarck's German Reich, Nazism and the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, no other nation has moulded Europe the way Germany has - for better or worse. When To Go Germany is a fine destination year-round, but most people visit between May and September when sunny skies are most likely and much of life moves outdoors. Beer gardens and cafes bustle at all hours; outdoor events and festivals enliven cities and villages; and hiking, cycling and swimming are popular pursuits - at least as long as the weather plays along. Remember that rain is a possibility in any month. The flipside of summer travel is, of course, larger crowds at museums and other attractions. Accommodation needn't be hard to come by unless you're drawn to beach and mountain resorts popular with German holiday-makers. The shoulder seasons (from March to May and from October to early November) bring fewer tourists and often surprisingly pleasant weather. In April and May, when flowers and fruit trees are in bloom, it can be mild and sunny. Indian summers that stretch well into autumn are not uncommon. With the exception of winter sports, activities between November and early March are likely to focus more on culture and city life. In these months, skies tend to be gloomy and the mercury often drops below freezing. On the plus side, there are fewer visitors and shorter queues (except in the winter resorts). Just pack the right clothes and keep in mind that there are only six to eight hours of daylight. In December the sun (if there is any) sets around 15:30 . Factoid Smellpol When the files of the former East German secret service, the Stasi, were opened up, they were found to contain, among other things, cotton wool swabs of dissidents' body odour, kept in bottles for use by sniffer dogs.

Contact us Discount Airfare > Mexico Flights & Travel M exico Flights & Travel Info Mexico offers such an immense and varied array of travel destinations and attractions that you could literally spend years exploring the country and not see and do everything. The obvious advantage is that it's just a short flight away. Mexico is an enormous country, covering almost two million square kilometers of land, and is bordered by the United States to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea to the east, and Guatemala and Belize to the south. A high plateau dominates much of the Mexican landscape. The plateau is bordered in the east and west by the two parallel ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains, which are extensions of the Rocky and Wasatch mountain ranges in the United States. The Sierra Nevadas give way to long coastal plains that extend to the coasts flanking either side of Mexico. The country's main geographic areas are divided into dozens of different ecosystems, including vast forests and desserts, which are home to an eclectic mix of flora and fauna. Mexican Culture Three main ethnic groups comprise Mexico 's population: Mestizos, Whites of European descent, and Indigenous - some 50 different indigenous groups, including Mayas, Aztecs, and Toltecas, make up close to 10% of the population. On account of centuries of coexistence by all of these different peoples, Mexican culture enjoys both a rich and complex mix of traditions.
