This Country Is RICH! - Travel Luxembourg vlog 179

- Luxembourg is one of the richest countries in the world... yet it is one of the smallest. We visit Luxembourg city and wander the gardens, the palace, and other attractions.
Despite it's small size, there are so many things to do in Luxembourg that I feel like we only just scratched the surface.

you said its a city-country?
well let me tell you that that is not true :) its what a lot of people believe, but just isn't right. Luxembourg city is the capital city of Luxembourg (the country), just like Berlin is the capital city of germany. but there are other regions, other cities some bigger some smaller, other districts etc. etc. Its not just luxembourg city, its a proper (but very small) country. sry i just had to correct that, it really annoyed for some reason :D
Thanks for the correction. We completely understand that there is more to Luxemberg than just the city. It was miss represented by saying that. We appreciate the clarification.:) -Ash
City states are proper countries too (just to let you know), for example: Monaco, Singapore and the Vatican City.
i know, but Luxembourg isn't a city state :P
I live in Luxembourg
@@WAYAWAYWithAsh No, it wasn't misrepresented, it was completely wrong and misleading. Not to mention, extremely patronising. Don't do a video about a country you haven't done your research on. It perpetuates and enforces the lazy American tourist stereotype.
You said Luxembourg is a city that is a country but thats not quite right. In fact, Luxembourg is a country that has a lot of small cities. The biggest city that is also the capital, is called Luxembourg too! :-)
I'm from Sweden...And the hall country of Luxembourg is smallest than our capitalcity Stockholm 😂
fyi, that's not true. luxembourg has an area of about 2,500 km^2, and stockholm is about 150 km^2. that's about 3 times the size of luxembourg city.
I think he was referring to population.
@@gergelystinglwagner3109 Yeah, and?
Hey, I was actually just sitting 5 meters away from you guys when you were filming your intro next to that bookshelf :) First thing that popped in my mind when I saw you was: "oh that must be youtubers" and then shortly after I saw you in Jon Olsson Vlog. Planet Earth, so big, but yet so small :) It's great to see you having a good time in my hometown :) keep doing what you are doing! Take care
Oh my gosh thats crazy +SThm. You were right there.
We loved your home town but coulda used a tour guide;) Next time. Thank you for the sweet message. -Ash

The highest point is in the north of the country called the “kneiff” it is a hill in the commune of troisvierges and it’s 560 meters
U know i live in luxembourg i was born there and luxembourg can be small but it is full of story and surprises i love luxembourg
We would have loved to spend more time there and get to know the history and culture a little better. You have a great country. :) /J
Thanks visiting Luxembourg. I'm pleased you visited my country where I live since I was born
What a great country it is. We enjoyed our short time there. -Ash
Hi The Juvallt, excuse me is there anyway can I contact you. I have couple of questions about your country. Do you have facebook?
I'm from Luxembourg and it's so funny to see you exploring all these little places where I go literally everyday and seeing how you experience my home country.
We really liked it. I would have loved to have had time to hang out at the skate park and explore a little more. We could have used a tour guide:) -Ash
Isn't it flustrating, or claustrophobic to live in a country what is smaller than the downtown of New York city?
Hi Isabelle. I would like to know more about your country. Is there anyway I can ask you questions. I want to know if there is a film industry there? . Thanks for your time
Gergely Stinglwagner no not at all but it can get kinda boring at times because there's not that much to do here and you have probably already seen everything and every place.
Nelson Serrano Hi Nelson! You can of course ask me anything you want to know about Luxembourg.
We do indeed have a film industry here but there are barely any films made in Luxembourg because we clearly don't have the same budget for our filmindustry than other countries may have. But sometimes, maybe once every 2 years, a movie's actually produced here and it's in luxembourgish of course. ☺️
Stop spreading misinformation. Luxembourg is not a city state. Just because the country and capital city are both called Luxembourg does not make it the same thing (same as New York City and New York State). The country of Luxembourg was named after its capital city, but there are a number of cities, towns and villages within the country, as well as different regions that each have their own unique accents, culture and cuisine.
Don't confuse it with Monaco or Vatican City.
Second point: the higher part of the city is in fact the older part and it's the one that gave the name to Luxembourg. It was an old fortified city and the lower part was outside of the city walls and was built at a later stage (although much of the original fortified city was demolished and replaces over the years, which is why it might seem more modern).
The Cathedral of Luxembourg once in a year they put outside the decorations out of gold but it's really real gold donated by some rich residential so that's why only in Spring time Only you can see it.
We're not that rich guys, Luxembourg is more than only the capital. But I sure hope you enjoyed your stay in our country :)
Is it easy to get around if you only speak english?
Jen Steward yes
Should be fine,but knowing some French would be very useful as well. :)
Only met on Luxembourger who didnt speak english
I understand german and french work but english is very accessible
U sure this place speak English I won't be there
The lady is very happy...like that!
It's really cool to see you guys come to Luxembourg. As an American, I'm glad to see other Americans come here and learn the history. Many people don't know how connected America and Luxembourg are, which I think is quite a shame. Luxembourg is very grateful to the US for their support of the country.
1st of all ''there's a lot of countries around here, there's France, Belgium, Austria'' dude were did you learn geography?
2nd of all, we also have poor people. it's not because we have some people that are freakin' rich that everybody is.
3rd get informed about a country before you talk about it...
4th full independence was obtained in 1839, after that we were invaded twice5th the cathedral is not the highest point in the country but it may be the highest building in the capital.
5th th eplace you run around from 6:40 'till 8:30 is a renovated orphanage that has been converted into a nursery home.
but anyway, thanks for enjoying our country.
ptitluxo no need to be so judgmental. He never claimed that there's no poor people, or that everyone is rich. He just said that the medium income is the highest in the world. I don't expect him to know everything about the country when he's visiting it for a day. You're just looking for things they made mistakes on so you can make yourself feel better.
ptitluxo He was talking about Germany when he mentioned neighboring countries, so he was at least right about that.
ptitluxo The cathedral is not the highest building. The highest buildings are the CJUE Twin Towers
man u missed the elevetor competely😑
Haha. IKR. You can even see in the video where we walked right past it. /J
WΔY ΔWΔY you were in the grund it's the place where only old people live thats the reason u did saw anyone😁
thats a lie, its got great pubs and sites to see, not for old but everyone.
Luxembourg is a wonderful country with many castles and areas to see, from Clerveaux to the north and Wasserbillig to the east.
Would love to explore more than just the main city center!
My cousin lives in Luxembourg! She's only ever sent pictures. Very cool!
Glad we can give you a glimpse. -Ash
I'm currently hooked on following your vlogs. :) Found you because I'm moving to Copenhagen from Oslo, and watched your CH-vlog. Love travelling with you guys! Thanks for posting so often!
+lunepune what a fun move! I fell in love with Copenhagen when we were there. I hope your move goes smoothly and that you enjoy the city as much as we did.
Thank you so much for traveling with us and leaving such a sweet comment. It means a lot. -Ash
THANKS,,,,GREAT TOUR...........ROUND FEW PLACES OF THE COUNTRY.
Nice vlogs. You kiddos have great energy and enthusiasm. Really liked Turkey and Eastern Europe; definitely under represented and so worth it seems. Great tips for budget travelers and work stay gigs. After you guys get back to LA it would be nice to see a breakdown of costs and a critical review of your own experiences, in sum. Look forward to your travels to the South Pacific and etc. if you haven't already been and I'm behind. Thumbs up!
Thanks +Helen Wood. We have many more adventures to come. We are working on a reflections video and Ill be sure to add some of our budgeting in that so it gives you a bit more of an idea. -Ash
I live in Luxembourg ✋🏼
bunnyboojk me too
Hello me too
Really bunnyboojk, i want to visit Luxembourg come September
Luxembourg vlog was a revelation to me .So small and yet so full of history.
You should go:) So much to explore and discover. -Ash
4:21 I know that feeling bro.
@@gergelystinglwagner3109 Not funny.
You guys are hilarious. Thanks for sharing you trips. “I made that up! I told you!” 😂
you walked right past the elevator at 3:40 ish, missed it to the first time there
DOH!
We in the netherlands just stop in Luxembourg to fill up our cars with petrol. I went to Vianden in Luxembourg, that is a nice little town with a castle on top of a mountain/hill.
If you are in that region you could also go to Colmar in the Alsace, France. pretty Town. Just north of Colmar there are some really picturesque villages like Bergheim, Ribeauvillé, Riquewihr, Kientzheim, Turckheim ... just to many to shake a stick at.
+Erik Stoop you're adding to my ever growing list of amazing places to see and I love it. I wish we had the oppertunity to go everywhere. This world is an amazing place with a billion little villages I would love to take pictures of. Thank you for your comment and suggestions. -Ash
It's the busiest city, sure AND A LOT of hidden things! which take some time to find! But there's so much more to do in other towns! I can keep you three busy sightseeing easily for a good 3 weeks.
We have to visit again. We did not have enough time and missed so much. -Ash
These videos are the best haha. Definitely inspiring me to travel.
YEAH! Get out there man! /J
Love from Luxembourg😇
😍
WΔY ΔWΔY pls come in luxemburg bastendorf 27 op der tomm
Lisa Shania Bozzet are u living ther
So many treasures you can find in a small country that is fun :D
We could have spent more time there but made the most of our time. Im so glad you enjoyed. -Ash
+The Way Away Thank you for sharing these experience to the world :)
You have only been in the old city the new parts are where the stores were but further up. On the kirchberg you could have found like 5 bankers per square meter its crazy there an on the limpertsberg are like 5-8 schools but those aren't really intresting for tourists
Thanks for the info. Super helpful:) -Ash
laura oe hi
So cliche omg
I think it is great that you visited so many countries (13 countries on this trip) but isn't your trip a bit superficial? Do you really have time to learn anything about these countries? Surely Luxembourg is worth more than lunch and a walk around. Do you read up on the countries you visit or do you just "go with the flow"? Not knowing that Luxembourg is both a country with a rural area (2585 square kilometers) and a capital city is disappointing for someone who purports to be a travel guide. One hour of reading about a country BEFORE you go would be a great help. The Internet today has a lot of information available for free.

50 years ago Luxembourg was dominantly an agriculture country. Only because of there low taxes they became a banker country.
lazycatlux actually I am german^^ haha sounds like 'secret banking' but what is it mean? Avoiding taxes?
lazycatlux ah yes okay same like in Switzerland ;)
lazycatlux but tax evasion is a generell problem in the world ;)
Yeah, and what's the problem with that? Have you seen the size of your country and the size of ours?
