I haven't been much to Germany unfortunatly, but it definetly is in my list to continue exploring the Deutsch culture and the vast of Berlin. I have been to Nuremberg for a private meeting, but someone with a passion for travelling like me, wouldn't not explore around what Nuremberg really offers! So I decided to stay their for one night alone and do my assignment there. I may say I wasn't happy with everything, I encountered a lot of rude people during my stay there, but it may sound rude to me just because Im not used to their way of speaking. Germans talk very harsh, resulting in their language to be stronger than others.

Nuremberg is the second-largest city of the German state of Bavaria after its capital Munich. As I wandered around the city, I noticed that there was a lot of old beautiful historical landmarks (that were built from a very long time ago, back to the 10th century, and are being well preserved). Its location was an important commercial hub since the middle ages onwards. Back in World War II, the city was severly destroyed in just one hour, leaving many killed. But the city was then well reconstructed. The city felt very clean and friendly. There was a lot of restaurants, nightlife and more.

The hotel I stayed in was the Hotel Ramada Nürnberg Park Hotel which is just 10 minutes away from the Old Town of Nuremberg. My room was quite spacious for a single-room and it was a very cozy room, but I felt it was too expensive. The hotel also had a gym, an indoor pool and a courtyard in the middle. But as the time reached 10pm, noise started growing from the outside, I heard men shouting, loud cars driving by and even loud german music... it was crazy! I couldn't sleep that night. It seems that at night, the city gets crowded. On the other hand the breakfast was really good, it was that morning I learnt "gut" was not my stomach, but "GOOD!". I woke up with my stomach hurting that morning, because I didn't eat anything, and I just asked the waiter "What kind of bread do you have here? My gut is hurting...", and he just laughed at my face.

Lesson learned!

Unfortunatly I haven't tried any German Traditional Food, as after breakfast I rushed for check-out and to the airport. But it was a worth to see the city's landmarks, such as the Nuremberg Castle, St. Lorenz Medieval Church, Albrecht Dürer's House, St. Sebaldus Church, Nazi Party Rally Grounds and the Pegnitz River to walk by.

Nuremberg Castle is the main symbol of this city, representing power and importance of the Roman Empire. It is said that this castle has been built since the 11th century. The castle is a group of medieval fortified buildings located in the center of the city.

St. Lorenz Medieval Church is another landmark to visit, a church of two sharp towers. I have found out that this church was one of the first churches in Germany to be Lutheran. The west facade features a beautiful facade, which I think reflects on the wealth of the people who live here, and the medieval characteristics that was portrayed during this period.

Albrecht Dürer was a German Renaissance artist from the 1500s, and he used to live in Nuremberg. His house was just five minutes from the castle, so I walked it whilst enjoying the views of the city. As I arrived, I see a five story typical German House, I was really fascinated! This house was really beautiful! After his death, it is now a museum dedicating his life and work.

The Nazi Party Rally Grounds were stages to keep up the image of Adolf Hitler as an embodiment of the "Volksgemeinschaft" and the "Führer" myth during the second world war. Mass parades, speeches, folk festivals, fireworks, and military displays were held here as preparations for war. Today there is just the remains, serving great history.
