具体描述

"Finis book. which contains over one hundred

magnificent colour photographs, is a pictorial

souvenir of the Federal Republic of Germany, or

West Germany.

Germany is now one of the wonu s great

economic powers. It is the home of the

"Wirtschaftswunder" the economic miracle-and

has become the wealthiest and technologically

most advanced country in Europe.

This makes it easy to forget that there is another

side to Germany, a side which is of far more

interest to the traveller, the photographer or the

naturalist.

For the tourist there are several holiday centres

which include the Harz Mountains and the Black

Forest, and routes such as the Romantic Road

(opened in 1950) and the Alpine Road have been

mapped out to take people through the most

interesting or beautiful parts of the country. The

lover of nature is well provided for as the German

countryside is e~tensive and meticulously looked

after (there are 9000 nature reserves alone). There

are beer festivals and music festivals, spas and

vineyards. And for those of a romantic disposition

there are castles of the Rhine, the mountains and

the fairytale palaces built by King Ludwig of

Bavaria.

This book shows these aspects of Germany at

their most picturesque. It will provide a permanent

reminder to those who know the country well and

give others a reason to discover her for

Jhemse]ves.
