Downtown Luxembourg activities and tourism 

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, a symbol of European art de vivre 

The quintessence of refined European art de vivre, Luxembourg invites visitors to explore off the beaten track, offering a city break with a spirit of openness. This mindset permeates the 
incredibly inclusive capital, a cultural melting pot where 4 languages are spoken at the crossroads of France, Belgium, and Germany.

With a deep connection to nature, the country is known for its gentle pace of life, where hiking and cycling are king, in a garden capital where green spaces reign supreme. With free public transportation since 2020, each of Luxembourg’s five regions reveals its treasures: the gardens of Guttland, the red landscapes of Minett in the south, the rugged hills of Eislek, the rocky cliffs and forests of the Mullerthal, and the lush vineyards of the Moselle valley.
