A small country between Belgium, Germany and France. Luxembourg is a tax haven and financial centre in Europe. We frankly felt the day trip to Luxembourg made sense since we anyway had a Eurail pass and we did not spend much to visit the country. Folks who want to increase country count are the ones you see here! Prominent places to visit in Luxembourg include the capital and castle town of Vianden
