Leipzig is nestled in the Saxon Lowlands near the Weisse Elster and Pleisse rivers. Once a small market town, today there are many things to do in Leipzig. Start by discovering the city’s architecture, such as the Old City Hall, St. Thomas Church, and Naschmarkt. After strolling through the old city streets, pick a museum to visit. Your options include the Museum of Fine Arts, the Grassi Museum that houses the famous Museum of Musical Instruments, the Egyptian Museum and Museum of Antiquities of Leipzig University, and the Bach Museum at the St. Thomas Church. Guests staying in Leipzig hotels will also be close to many outdoors attractions. There are urban parks and squares, as well as the university’s Botanical Garden right in the city. Alternatively, guests can discover the surrounding countryside, such as the Clara-Zetkin Park or the Kulkwitzer Lake. Those visiting in the spring may be lucky enough to partake in the Bach Festival, while in the wintertime, one of the top places to visit in Leipzigis the Christmas Market. In the evening, enjoy a concert at one of the churches or theatres. Plus, don’t miss Leipzig’s famous vegetable dish, Leipziger Allerlei, and the delicious Reformationsbrotchen pastry.
