Germany
Berlin is the most affordable major Western European capital and arguably the most culturally dynamic. World War II and Cold War history are inescapable — at the East Side Gallery, Checkpoint Charlie, the Holocaust Memorial, and Tempelhof Field. The art, techno, and restaurant scenes are operating at the same level.
