If you want to have fun this is the town to visit. My buddies and I spent our vacation here and we couldn't get enough of the bars and clubs here. The discos were always full and we danced till morning enjoying our cocktails and beers. It's a very lively town.

This town is a hiker's paradise. I and the boys had a great time hiking in the parks and we enjoyed watching the beautiful swans, ducks, herons, hawks, and majestic horses. The woodlands were very quiet and peaceful. I really had a relaxing time.

My family visited this town and we fell in love with it. We particularly loved the farm visits where we could cuddle the horses and even ride them. My children loved it. We can't wait to visit again.
