Germany
Regensburg
Medieval towers and student bars create an unexpectedly lively Bavarian city along the Danube.
Stone bridges and Gothic spires define the skyline, while university students fill beer gardens and late-night cafés. The old town feels genuinely lived-in rather than preserved, with locals shopping at weekly markets and lingering over coffee in squares that have hosted conversations for centuries.
