Karlsruhe a vibrant centre of intellectual life. Margraves
may once have held sway here – but today it is dominated by
a sense of vitality and zest for life. Culture, lifestyle
and culinary delights, combined with the surrounding
countryside and the atmosphere of its parks and green
spaces, make this city a very special place to visit. Its
fascinating radial layout is just one aspect of what makes
this sunny Badensian city so attractive.
The design of Karlsruhe's centre is reminiscent of the sun's
rays, with its streets and avenues fanning out from their
central point - the tower of the baroque palace with its
palace gardens, botanical gardens and orangery. In the heart
of the city, you'll find the market square and the pyramid.
The Renaissance-style Gottesaue Palace and Karlsburg Palace
in Durlach are also well worth a visit. |
