Travel guide Upper Lusatia, Lusatian Lakeland with Zittau Mountains

Right at the trilateral border of Germany, Poland, and the Czech Republic lies Upper Lusatia, a modern, nature-oriented holiday region where mountains, forests, and waters allow you to forget everyday life and where you can discover European cultural history. Poland, the Czech Republic, and the cultural landscapes of Bohemia and Silesia are right at your doorstep, inviting you for relaxing day trips. Heath and pond landscapes in the natural areas, Renaissance and Baroque districts in the towns, as well as a diverse culture and evidence of the textile industry attract visitors to this region, which offers a variety of tourist formats and is also capable of allowing its guests to explore on their own.

The author Detlef Krell guides readers through his travel guide "Upper Lusatia, Lusatian Lake District" to all interesting places and attractions, from the land of the Sorbs across mountains and hills, heath and ponds, the Lusatian Lake District, Görlitz and the Neisse region, the UNESCO World Heritage site in Bad Muskau, to Polish Upper Lusatia and the Zittau Mountains, reaching as far as Liberec and its surroundings. He showcases the most beautiful peaks, the most impressive giants of engineering, the most tranquil surrounding villages, and the most striking evidence of classical modernity while providing detailed excursions into history, land, and people.
