German Cities & Towns

If you drive through Germany and explore our German cities and towns, you will experience that many cities are scattered throughout the country. We have, however, large German cities like Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, and Cologne, as well as a lot of towns and villages.

Germany has about 82 million inhabitants. In the largest city, Berlin, live however only about 3.4 million inhabitants. In other words, it is here different to some other countries on earth where most people live concentrated in huge cities.

There are countries in which it seems as if humans would almost flee into the large cities. Sure, in our large German cities it is more likely that you will find a job than in the country, but we Germans dear to live comfortable and calm. We have sufficient stress during the day so that we love to relax in the evening. Best in calm environment in the country.

In fact, you can do more in large German cities. In the small German towns and villages, it is usual that starting from 8 o'clock in the evening, "the sidewalks are lifted up." (As we tend to say; when you go out but nobody is on the road any more and all restaurants and shops are closed.)
