The Petros Canyon, also known as the Luxembourg Grand Canyon, is one of the world's famous scenic spots. It is about 100 meters wide and 60 meters deep, naturally dividing Luxembourg City into two urban areas, the new and old areas in the north and south.
Constitution Square is the best place to view the Grand Canyon and the scenery on both sides. Opposite the Grand Canyon, there is a palace-like building located in the green, which looks particularly magnificent. It is the Luxembourg National Savings Bank. At its north end is a tall pointed round bell tower, and on both sides are medieval buildings with only roofs visible.

A deep ditch seemed to be the open space here. The streets were the same as those in Belgium, with one building after another. It felt like there were no houses, only shops. However, the streets were clean, and it was still a very developed country.
【Adolphe Bridge】Located northwest of Luxembourg Station, it was built in the late 19th century and early 20th century. The bridge is 46 meters high and 84 meters long. It is a stone viaduct. But to be honest, most buildings in Europe are not larger than this. A bridge less than 100 meters long can be called a bridge. You should know that the Adolphe Bridge is one of the most famous buildings in Europe. It spans the canyon and connects the old and new urban areas. The arches supporting the bridge are symmetrical on both sides and have a very spectacular appearance. Looking from the bridge, the scenery in the distance is very beautiful, and the bridge itself is a rare visual feast, especially at night, when the pale yellow light shines on the bricks and stones of the bridge, giving people a dazzling feeling.

The Grand Ducal Palace is the residence of the supreme ruler of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, located in the center of the old town of Luxembourg.
The Grand Ducal Palace is not far from the Constitution Square, but it is not open at present, so you can only see the exterior ~ It is only open in July and August.
From the exterior, the Grand Ducal Palace has a very exquisite architectural style. Through some windows, you can see that the interior decoration is elegant, unique and grand. Some paintings are really beautiful. Even outside the window, I stopped to appreciate them for a while.
The palaces in Luxembourg are very unique, the whole area is very beautiful, the palace has a long history, and it is also a very important historical building. The design and layout of the palace are also very good.
[Value for money] You can visit for free

[Luxembourg Notre Dame Cathedral] Also known as the Church of Our Lady of the Child, it was built between 1613 and 1621 in the famous late Gothic Revival style. It is one of the symbols of Luxembourg, and the Virgin Mary is enshrined inside. In the past, this Renaissance building was not used as a Notre Dame Church, but as a Jesus Church. After the expansion project from 1935 to 1938, three pointed hats were added and it became the Notre Dame Church
Tickets: The church is free
Time: Very mixed, the overall time is 10-17 o'clock
Address: Rue Notre Dame, 2240 Luxembourg
Transportation: Luxembourg is very small and can be reached on foot
Location: Notre Dame Church is located in the city of Luxembourg, not far from Constitution Square~
Originally it was a church school, and later became Notre Dame Church, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The architectural style is a combination of Baroque style and Renaissance art style. This is where the royal family holds grand ceremonies and rituals. The wedding ceremony of the King of Luxembourg and the Princess of Belgium was held here.
Opening hours: Notre Dame Church is open from the end of March to October every year

Luxembourg is really not a place suitable for self-driving [laughing and crying] Because Luxembourg is a natural canyon, most of the roads are very steep... and the attractions are very close to each other on foot, but if you drive, you will have to go around a lot... So when I was looking for the scenic corridor, I went around at least three times before I found it...
Luxembourg gets dark very early in winter, it is pitch black at 6 o'clock... You can only see the night view
I can only say that the beauty of Luxembourg cannot be captured by mobile phones. The scenic corridor is a natural 360-degree viewing platform, known as the most beautiful platform in Europe. Here you can also see the scenery of Luxembourg city from a high place~ It is still worth a look, but you don't need to reserve too much time
There is a walkway on the Burke Fortress, from which you can overlook the scenery of the old town below. The entire city can be seen in front of you at a glance. The scenery is very beautiful. Don't miss it when traveling to Luxembourg.

Luxembourg is a small country, as if it is on a street in the sky. However, I knew about this country when I was a child. Why? It was the first foreign country name I knew. When I was a child, my family lived in Dongshicao Hutong, Dongcheng District, Beijing. The hutong to the north was Ganmian Hutong. I often went to Zhou Yusan's house with my classmates to play. There was a yard next to his house that was never open, so we always played in the doorway. There was a sign at the door with five Chinese characters and foreign characters engraved on it. It was engraved with "Embassy of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg". Or was it a consulate? So I was deeply impressed and wanted to see this country when I traveled to Europe.
The square has a long history, and it seems that almost every major event is celebrated or commemorated here. Some of the most exciting political rallies on earth have been held in the square. In the 1840s, the Communists and the right-wing government were engaged in a fierce struggle.

It’s a nice place to visit, which is also located at the center of the city! I came there in winter, so the Christmas fair was also located there!
The Luxembourg Heroes' Monument was completed in 1923 and is located in Place de la Constitution. It was built to commemorate the 3,000 Luxembourg soldiers who died in World War I. It was rebuilt after being destroyed in World War II, so it has a dual meaning.

Liberty Avenue is the main avenue in Luxembourg and the only way to get to various attractions and the city center. Tram tracks are being built now, and most of the road surface has been dug up. It is estimated that it will take some time to return to normal.
The most important street in Luxembourg, Liberty Avenue is also an important hub here, connecting several parts of the city. The building area of the entire street is very good. Luxembourg is pretty good. Many hotels and restaurants on the street are very good.
[Scenery] The whole scenery is very good
[Fun] It's a very interesting place

The moat was gone by 1800. The tower is the main relic of York Castle. The current stone tower was built by Henry III from 1245 to 1262 and was finally completed in 1313. It is in the shape of four petals and has a wooden top.
Located in the northeast of Luxembourg's old town, it is a little far from the city center. However, since it is a fortress, it is impossible to be in the city center. Fort Bourke was built in 1644 during the Spanish rule. It is the oldest relic in Luxembourg. It was once an important military defense fortress, but was later completely demolished, including the 17-kilometer artillery battery. Now only part of the ruins can be seen, but I personally think it is a very good scenic spot. It is located at a high place and you can see the beautiful Luxembourg Canyon scenery around it. You can also see the Alzette River. It is a good place to quietly enjoy the scenery.
