Stuttgart
Stuttgart is often overlooked in favour of other more famous German cities like Berlin or Munich, but it’s well worth a visit.
The city is home to some impressive architecture, including the baroque Stiftskirche and the ultra-modern Mercedes-Benz Museum. The Old Town is charming, and there are plenty of green spaces for relaxation, including the Schlossgarten and the Killesberg Park. Stuttgart is also a major cultural centre, with a thriving arts scene and some excellent museums, including the State Gallery and the Linden Museum. And of course, no visit to Stuttgart would be complete without sampling the local cuisine, which is famous for its hearty Swabian dishes.
