Yesterday I arrived from Leipzig which is really great and which is only 160 km away from Berlin – it may take just 2 hours of your time to get there and to see this wonderful city!

Leipzig has been a trade city since it was situated many years ago at the intersection of two important Medieval trade routes (Via Regia and Via Imperii). Despite this fact, the city is not very big – one day was really enough to walk it throughout and to visit all the main city sightseeing points, for example:

1. Zum Arabischen Coffe Baum. This café is probably one of the oldest in Europe – the first mention about it refers to 1556.
2. Bach Museum. The museum dedicated to Johann Sebastian Bach will tell you about composer’s life in Leipzig, about his family and work as well as provide you with the opportunity to listen to his every composition.
3. Panorama Tower. On the top of this building you may have the greatest look at the city and, if the weather is fine, have a nice time at the roof-top bar.
4. Nicholas Church and St. Tomas Church. Johann Sebastian Bach was responsible for these two admirable churches many years ago, and nowadays organ concerts are held also there.

Talking about logistics, the main accent should be made here is DHL hub in Leipzig (this hub is the largest hub in the whole Europe!) with its own fleet of aircrafts and own airport. As the nighttime is the most intense for the hub and the most exciting time for visitors, the excursion takes place after 9 pm and finishes by the midnight time. During these few hours you have an incredible opportunity to watch the process of smart approach of parcels sorting, of very fast containers reloading, and to admire DHL’s aircraft fleet. The company spent around €350.000.000 to create this huge hub, consequently, it improved service and timeliness of DHL deliveries in comparison with its ex-central depot in Brussels.
