The Best of NileGuide
- Like most European cities in the summer months when the sun makes its annual appearance, Leipzig comes to life with festivals. The Bach festival or the A Capella festival make for a fun time and are only a few of the many festivals that grace Leipzig in the summertime. With the new developments brought on by the East German development, fairly new shopping malls full of European designers are dotted throughout the city as well as new commerce like a Porsche plant and museums resurrected from decades of oppressive Soviet rule. It's all awaiting your visit.
