My family moved to Luxembourg in 2004 and
is still living in here. Luxembourg is a tiny country in between France,
Belgium and Germany if you didn’t know. It’s not a well known country, but it
does have a lot of good things. It’s a centre for banking because there are
really low taxes compared to other countries so many major companies have
branches here.
But on a touristic it’s known for the way
the city is structured. There are several green valleys in the centre of the
city because the river cut through the hills a lot time ago. The rest of the city is on multiple plateaus.
There are many small winding roads where cars find it difficult to pass, and
cobble stone roads are one of the main features of the town. There’s a
pedestrian area in the main shopping area of the town allowing the people to
feel safer.
I think I only really appreciate Luxembourg
when the weather is good and I can walk around through the winding roads
because in winter the city looks really depressing and empty. Also I spent all
my high school life wishing I could leave so I’ve only really gotten the chance
to look around and enjoy this tiny town during this summer. After all, every
city looks better with a little sunshine.
