economic powers in the world. Situated at the heart of Europe, Germany
borders on nine neighbouring countries, and is home to around 82 million

brought about the peaceful reunification of Germany.
Leipzig
Leipzig is located in eastern Germany, a one hour drive from Berlin
in the north-west part of the Free State of Saxony. Leipzig currently
has about 494,000 inhabitant and enjoys, in general, a relatively
mild climate. In April the average temperature is 14°C (57°F).
Having grown up as a trade-fair and commercial centre Leipzig is today
a lively, open-minded, youthful and yet a very old City of culture
and trade. The Thomanerchor (St Thomas Choir), one of the oldest boys’
choirs in the world, must be mentioned here, as must its most famous
choir master, Johann Sebastian Bach. Then there are the Gewandhaus
Orchestra and the Opera House, making Leipzig a favourite destination.
The historic centre of the city with it´s splendid old Fair
Houses, their arcades, shops, coffee houses, pubs and restaurants,
makes Leipzig’s own special flair – vitality, cosmopolitan
attitudes and hospitality.
