Luxembourg may not be the largest country or biggest European destination, but it’s a hidden treasure with so many beautiful sites. Before you head on your trip, learn what to wear in Luxembourg so you can fit in with the locals and look stylish!
What to Wear in Luxembourg
Tucked away between Belgium, France and Germany, Luxembourg is a frequent tourist stop through Europe. Well-known for its thriving economy, Luxembourg would argue its best treasure is found outside the capital, Luxembourg.
Due to its central location, Luxembourg is a frequently visited escape into nature for its neighbouring locals. With a plethora of hills, river strewn in between castles, rock formations and vineyards, Luxembourg is a true gem.
Luxembourg is also a well-known destination for food lovers with more star restaurants per capita than anywhere else in the world. With excellent public transport options, Luxembourg is easily visited on everyone’s budget.
