Leipzig is in Germany and is a city 150 km south of Berlin. Although Leipzig is not as renowned as other German cities like Berlin and Munich, it bears its own charm. It is a place which carries historical significance and is where musician/composer Johann Sebastian Bach lived from 1723 to his death in 1750. This makes Leipzig a MUST-VISIT for fans of Bach and musicians.
For me, coming to Leipzig was entirely by chance. It was the destination assigned to me by Germanwings when we tried our luck at blindbooking.
When you are in Leipzig, you will have to visit the Bach Museum. It is inspiring to learn about Bach's journey to become a world renowned musician/composer. Although I am not that into classical music, it's pretty cool visiting the church where he once played his music, and visiting the site where he was buried. I am in awe and respect for this man who, after more than 200 years of his death, his legacy lives on.
