Located in western Europe, Luxembourgh is very small in population and land mass. It is bordered by Germany, France, and Belgium.
Luxembourg City, above the Alzette Valley, is the capital of Luxembourg. It is said that Luxembourg City began as the fortress of Sigefroid, the Count of Ardennes. Within the wineries of Moselle Valley, a great deal of wine tasting goes on. In fact, tours are available from late in the spring until early in the autumn. The Caves Bernard-Massard is also worth a visit while you are here. At Remich, one can discover the method used to create the sparkling wines that are produced there. Once you have traversed through the damp tunnels, your reward is a glass of the sparkling bubbly itself.
