Bock Casemates

Luxembourg City, Luxembourg

One of the city’s main attractions is the Bock Casemates, a maze of defensive tunnels carved out under the old city in 1745. It can be slippery and very dark in places with lots of dead ends, something the openings along the front face of the rock from with views of the lower town make up for.

Vianden

Luxembourg City, Luxembourg

There are lots of day trips from Luxembourg City, but the town of Vianden is particularly picture-perfect. Take a cable car up the hillside to the 11th-century castle, then wander back down the hillside and through the quaint town for a bite to eat by the river.
