Advantages: Great city Disadvantages: It's far from here lol
I recently spent 8 days in Stuttgart as part of an exchange, and really loved the city and all it had to offer. Most of what I loved about it was the other towns and places that they had in the area, which I will talk about in more detail below.
*Stuttgart town centre*
To be honest, I didn't spend a great deal of time in Stuttgart itself, although I did spend a long time in one of the many Starbucks they had. The main shopping street, Koenigstrasse, had many German shops as well as internationally known ones such as H&M, along with a handful of restaurants. I went to the art museum one day, which was right in the middle of town and easy to get to, and really enjoyed it.
*Transport*
One thing that really impressed me about Stuttgart was the public transport and how clean and reliable it was. I live in Newcastle upon Tyne ...
Advantages: nice city, nice surroundings Disadvantages: the dialect of the people, but if you don't know German anyway, why bother
, the Porsche-Museum is in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, Porschestr. 42 and the Mercedes-Museum in Stuttgart-BadCannstatt, Mercedesstr. 137/1 (both admisission free, tubes to both destinations).
The Mercedes freaks can travel to BadCannstatt (5 minutes) together with the House & Garden friends who want to visit the Wilhelma, the Zoological and the Botanical Gardens, built by the then King in the Moorish style which was en vogue at the beginning of the 19th century. Well worth a visit.
I’m offering a visit to the Old and New State Gallery, anyone in for the arts? (Konrad-Adenauer-Str. 30-32, three minutes from the station, behind the Theatre, on the other side of the road). The Old State Gallery has artefacts from the Middle Ages up to the 19th century, old German, Italian, Dutch paintings and sculpture from Classic up to Impressionists ...
Advantages: Well run German Airport Disadvantages: Display screens not updated quickly enough
Stuttgart Echterdingen is situated approximately 10 miles outside of the centre of Stuttgart and is the first and last point of call for many travellers visiting this city of industry.
Although not the largest of airports, Stuttgart still sees approximately 400 landings and taking offs daily and last year saw nearly 9.5million people use the airport, flying on approximately 60 different carriers.
THE TERMINAL
If you are flying from Stuttgart, you will see that your flight will arrive/depart from one of four terminals at the airport. However, do not be fooled as, unlike many other airports, the four terminals are encased in the same building and the number only refers to the part of the terminal that you will fly from.
As well as being split into four sections laterally, the terminal is split across five floors with each ...
