shopping made in germany
Shopping - made in Germany is a wonderful experience. Germany has a huge range of different places to shop, from the traditional atmosphere of its town centers to more than 400 shopping malls, each like a world of its own. The one thing they all have in common is a colorful mix of shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafés. And nearly all German towns and cities have pedestrian areas with large department stores and shopping arcades.
Think of the famous KaDeWe department store in Berlin, the Fünf Höfe (five courtyards) in Munich, Düsseldorf’s Königsallee or many outlet centers close to the bigger cities – everywhere visitors come in their droves to enjoy the great shopping opportunities on offer.
Ms. Heike Murad, GCC Manager States, German National Tourist Board, said, “Germany is ideally placed as a shopping destination for its middle east travellers who love to shop. With its excellent tourism infrastructure, along with the exceptionally good value for money offered by German hotels and restaurants in comparison with their European counterparts. Details of these benefits along with brief information on Germany's shops, primarily in the towns and cities, as well as brands and products can be found in the Arabic brochure "Shopping – made in Germany".
