Esbjerg – where Man Meets the Sea

Esbjerg is the fifth largest city in Denmark and has a few notable museums. But we were interested in another landmark: Man Meets the Sea.

Tønder

Our stay at Tønder came quite unexpected. Tønder is a Danish border town and also the place where we had to change trains. Unfortunately, the ticket was only valid until Tønder and trains leave every two hours to Esbjerg.

I did choose Saarbrucken only for its close proximity to the border. There are special roundtrip tickets for Strasbourg and Luxembourg.

Like Liège, Maastricht can be reached from Aachen with the cheap Euregio ticket. It calls itself the old town of the Netherlands and is without doubt one of the three important cities of the EU (the others are Brussel and Strasburg).

Liège: So many steps!

Time to use my French again! The first day trip from Aachen with the Euregio ticket was to Liège. Liège is in the French speaking part of Belgium and is probably most famous for the Montagne de Bueren.
