🇩🇪 Trier Weekend | Roman Empire Meets Marx ✨

As a Luxembourg worker, this is my perfect weekend escape! From Thionville → Luxembourg → Trier by train (free replacement buses during track repairs - sunny 1h10min ride! ☀️🚌). Highlights: 🚪 Porta Nigra (Black Gate) ⚫🏰 Roman-era gate turned black by weathering Can climb up (but I skipped - history buffs would love it!) 📕 Karl Marx House 🧔📚 €3.50 entry - his birthplace! Charming 3-floor townhouse: 🏠 Floors 1-2: Marx's life 🌍 Floor 3: Global communist influence Sweet staff gave me a free postcard (no cash!) and spoke Chinese! 😊 🏞️ Palastgarten 🌿🦆 Trainee friend’s secret spot - feels like Versailles’ gardens! Full of Spanish tourists (drawn by Roman vibes 🏛️) 🛍️ Vibes: Way livelier than Thionville! Bustling markets 🎪 Cute shops 🛒 Famous Christmas market coming soon! 🎄✨ #Trier #LifeInGermany #LuxembourgLife #WeekendVibes #RomanHistory
