At the heart of what was once East Germany, Berlin (and its stunning neighbor Potsdam, often overlooked) is by far the main attraction of this region bordering Poland. However, you can also discover beautiful castles and fortresses (Königstein, Moritzburg, Pillnitz...), several towns and villages worth a stop (including Quedlinburg and Görlitz for their historic charm), or enjoy the natural beauty of Saxon Switzerland.
