A stroll along the picturesque lanes and alleys of Nuremberg is a thrilling trip through time, though, past splendid half-timbered houses and romantic squares, along the gently-flowing River Pegnitz, up to the dominant Imperial Castle or along the city walls with their mighty defensive towers. With a breeze of modernity blowing gently through its streets, the city accommodates a lively urban scene within its venerable walls.
This Bavarian metropolis has established itself as a globally-oriented business and commercial hub with renowned universities and institutions, a thriving arts and museum landscape and a rich and varied range of restaurants and hotels.
