I have to be honest and say Luxembourg City was never really on my radar but when a press trip popped up, I was intrigued. I decided to go for it because it was something a little out of ordinary, a country I didn't know too much about and a few days away soaking up the vibe of another city. I'm very glad I decided to go!
I had such a lovely three days away and it was such an interesting country to learn about. There's not too much to fit in but I think that is part of it's charm. You can really take your time taking in the sights. Sometimes it all gets a little too much when there's so much on the itinerary. Taking a walk around the old town is wonderful thanks to the architecture being so pretty. There's just something about buildings steeped in history. One thing I love about Europe is that the walls really do speak. You don't always get that history elsewhere. I fully recommend a walking tour so you really get to know the city inside out - it has such an fascinating history.
We were lucky enough to go during their annual free musical festival. Listening to opera from a live orchestra whilst eating dinner outside was genuinely a highlight in my life - it honestly gave me goosebumps.
I won't say too much about recommendations as I'll be putting together a city guide in the next few days. Luxembourg City is the perfect break away if you enjoy good food, good wine and the slower pace of city life. Sometimes it nice to take a step back and just enjoy plodding along at your own pace.
This weekend I'm in Liverpool, June is turning into a very busy month!
