Top 10 Things To Do in<br />

Black Forest, Germany<br />

A mountainous region in southwest Germany, the Schwarzwald (Black Forest) gets its name from<br />

its dark and slightly sinister canopy of evergreens. It is the home of cuckoo clocks, has a spa town<br />

and gave inspiration to fairy tales within the Grimm Brothers. Thick and dense forest hikes, hilly<br />

bike rides or taking a walk along the quiet countryside dotted with traditional farmhouses, there's<br />

something for everyone.<br />

Pforzheim Jewellery Museum /<br />

Schmuck Museum<br />

The only museum of its kind around the world, there<br />

are approximately 2,000 pieces demonstrating the<br />

diversity and types of jewellery that has been around<br />

for over 5,000 years. Visitors will also find pocket<br />

watches and ethnographic jewellery and re-discover<br />

the museum often with its special exhibits, which<br />

alternate regularly.<br />
