Situated north-east of Strasbourg and west of Stuttgart, is Baden-Baden a countryside haven for people who want to take things a little bit slower. Architecturally Baden-Baden is astonishing, dating back to the middle ages when they built a castle to protect the city, which you can take tours of. An enriched history of beautiful churches and buildings are a time warp backwards. The area is surrounded by natural beauty with parks to visit as well as a modern spa for the perfect relaxation time. A very popular tourist attraction not only because of the culturally rich town, but also the nightlife where they have built the famous Baden-Baden Casino with the most elegant décor one can imagine in this 200+ year old mansion.
