Luxembourg City, the capital and only major city of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
I have to admit that I knew very little about Luxembourg and, after
Germany, I had low expectations about the place. How wrong I was!
The historic center of Luxembourg City, with its stately architecture and natural beauty, is every bit as interesting and photogenic as any European capital. It is well worth a visit.

 |
| One of many steep streets in Luxembourg, winter tires are apparently mandatory as pretty much every car had them. |
 |
| Notre-Dame Cathedrale towering in the distance. |
 |
| The valley of the Alzette river. |
 |
| This tiny river carved out this huge gorge. |
 |
| Modern buildings in the new parts of town. |
 |
| Impressive stone viaduct. One of many. |
 |
| Every city should look like this. The oldest part of town, the Grund, on the banks of the Alzette. |
 |
| Another very steep street. |

| The Alzette up-close. |

| Inside the Grund. |
 |
| Layer upon layer of old fortifications. If only the walls could talk. |

| In front of Notre-Dame Cathedral. |
 |
| The towering building across the Petrusse Valley is actually a bank. |
