One says of herself that she is hopelessly romantic. The other is sometimes a little brash, seduces with its scenic charms or brings the past back to life. Every region in NRW is unique and full of special features. Sometimes they are built close to the water like the Bergisches Land, sometimes densely forested like the Sauerland and Siegerland. The Lower Rhine is manageable and cosy, while in the Ruhr region the city boundaries are increasingly disappearing. And the Teutoburg Forest has more superlatives than you might think. See for yourself where you like it best in NRW!
