Germany offers a wide selection of holiday choices from busy city breaks to stunning German countryside. With 82 million people Germany is the biggest EU country in terms of population, but is a very friendly country with families playing an important role.
Germany has a wealth of culture and history but modern Germany is an interesting holiday vacation destination with inspiring architecture, great food and fine wines and well as many festivals, which attract millions of visitors each year.
One of the better-known festivals is Oktoberfest, which is held every year in Munich during October. Music, food and beer all play a big part in the Oktoberfest with traditional foods such as Hendl, which are spit roasted whole chickens and Bavarian Weißwürste which is steamed white veal sausages served with sweet mustard. Sauerkraut and pretzels are found on every menu also.
If you are planning on visiting Munich at this time of year booking your holiday rental early is advisable due to the large number of visitors.
