Pszczyna is a city in southern Poland in the Silesian province, on the Pszczyna River, called the Pearl of Upper Silesia. It has an interesting history, well-preserved monuments and an attractive location among the forests of the former Silesian Forest.
.One of the city's biggest attractions is a beautiful aristocratic residence surrounded by a magnificent park, namely the castle, or in fact the Hochberg palace. The Pszczyna Palace is one of the few monuments that was not affected by the devastation of the recent wars. Its current appearance is due to the reconstruction and decoration of the late 19th century. On the first floor you can visit the imperial suite furnished for German Emperor William II, on the second floor the apartments of the famous Duchess Daisy and Prince von Pless, while in the basement of the castle - interesting exhibitions of weapons and armaments.
It's worth strolling through the Castle Park and visiting, among others, the famous Princess Daisy's Tea Room or the Bison Showcase Homestead. There is also an open-air museum called Zagroda Wsi Pszczyńskiej and the Silesian Press Museum, which is interesting and unique in Poland.
.Pszczyna is a junction station through which two railroad lines run: Katowice-Zwardoń and Pszczyna-Rybnik.

.Aachen is a spa town in western Germany in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, on the border with Belgium and the Netherlands. At one time Aachen was the seat of Charlemagne and the center of his European empire. Charlemagne built a palace and a chapel there, which was expanded over time into the cathedral that still exists today. Inside this historic temple are the imperial throne and reliquary of Charlemagne, the Great Relics of Aachen, which include Mary's gown and the baby Jesus' diaper, and many other valuable medieval objects.
In addition to the cathedral, see the beautiful town hall and take advantage of the health-promoting properties of the local thermal waters. There are several interesting museums in Aachen: the cathedral treasury, the Centre Charlemagne introducing the history of Aachen, and the Couven Museum, showcasing technical progress and the life of the city's inhabitants in the 18th century, among others. Aachen also has many interesting monuments and fountains. Right next to the cathedral is the Puppenbrunnen, a movable fountain from 1975 that tells the city's history in an abbreviated way by means of figures moved by viewers.
