Luxembourg City
Tourism in Luxembourg City, capital of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, grew for the sixth consecutive year in 2015, with the number of queries made at the tourist office rising 12.33 percent to 680,897, the Luxembourger Wort newspaper reports.
Participation in guided tours rose 15.79 percent with 294,240 people taking part in a tour in the capital.
Meanwhile, visits to the ever popular Casemates, former military tunnels under the old town, rose by almost 10 percent with 127,475 exploring the atmospheric passageways.
New features introduced in 2015 which served to boost tourism include the creation of a Luxembourg Convention Bureau to assist the Luxembourg Presidency of the European Union as well as well a light show Luxembourg Light Nights on December 18 and 19.
