Bremen, home to the world famous Town Musicians, puts itself on the map as the pulsating, multifaceted heart of North West Germany. A hive of heritage, science, high technology and space industry keeps up breathtakingly pacy innovations in the 1,200 year old city: from rejuvenated Schlachte Promenade on the River Weser and the full-sized Columbus Space Module of the International Space Station (ISS) to world beating 21st century attractions like the Universum® Science Center Bremen.

 Seestadt Bremerhaven - Maritime Bremen
Regenerated Schlachte waterfront gives promenaders plenty to watch over right in the city centre. People can enjoy nautical rhythms along the River Weser and chill out in one of the many restaurants, cafes and bars . Each year the power of the sea pulls in almost two million visitors to an area, which boasts some 2,000 outdoor seats. Ships and boats of every variety are berthed alongside the river, from the three-masted frigate and pancake ship Admiral Nelson to the replica of a Hanseatic-era cog ship, a typical cargo vessel of the 13th and 14th centuries.

When in Germany, Do as the Germans Do: The Clued-In Guide to German Life, Language, and Culture
By Hyde Flippo
On entering a restaurant, should you find your own way to a table or should you wait to be seated? What is a suitable topic for small-talk with a stranger in Germany? This guide combines an appreciation of Germany's rich heritage with a practical awareness of contemporary customs. Over 100 articles cover a broad range of topics, including: customs, food and drink, language, travel, arts and pop culture, politics, business, media and entertainment, home life, consumer behaviour, religion, history, and education. Multiple-choice questions provide an avenue to the articles for browsing, and there is an index for quick reference. Internet references (to both English and German sites) accompany almost every article, enabling readers to use their knowledge or further their research, whether checking government statistics on housing, taking a virtual tour of a museum, or planning a cross-country tour by train.
Paperback: 176 pages; Publisher: McGraw-Hill; 1 edition (June 28, 2002); Language: English; ISBN-10: 0844225533; ISBN-13: 978-0844225531
