About Luxembourg

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a small country in the west of Europe. A high level of security, a pleasant temperate climate, many attractions to suit every taste, original local cuisine and comfortable hotels – all this can provide its guests with Luxembourg.
The ancient quarters of the capital, as well as ancient castles of the state, such as Vianden, Larochette and Beaufort will appeal to lovers of antiquity. Luxembourg Switzerland and the Haut-Sur National Park offer tourists to spend their holidays actively, and at the same time to admire the amazing natural beauties.

For tourists who prefer organised tours, it will be interesting to visit historical or art museums. Tours to the Moselle Valley will reveal the secret of the production of world-famous wines.

It is also definitely worth trying the national cuisine, the most original dish of which is roast hare meat. As a souvenir from Luxembourg usually bring something tasty – sweets, Ardennes ham, chocolate or locally produced wine.
