Visitors to Europe wary of crowds have the option of visiting Freiburg in Germany, an enchanting medieval city on the outskirts of the Black Forest.<\/p>\n
Freiburg’s old town boasts a magnificent mediaeval cathedral, Renaissance university, and intricate canals. These waterways are known as “B\u00e4chle.”<\/p>\n
These small water channels run along the streets and were historically used to fight fires.<\/p>\n
According to local tradition, if you accidentally fall into a B\u00e4chle, you are destined to marry a Freiburger.<\/p>\n
The city also acts as a gateway to the Black Forest’s dense forests, scenic landscapes, and charming villages.<\/p>\n

It is also better to do a day trip to Basel in Switzerland.”<\/p>\n Another notes however: “Personally I don\u2019t think Freiburg itself offers a great deal.”<\/p>\n
