Nestled around the River Elbe, amidst rugged mountain ranges, Saxony is a place of beauty and a paradise for active holiday makers. Bordering several countries including Poland, Czech Republic, this is a great base to explore the local region and its neighbours. The mountainous ranges, vast and breath taking gorge, and beautiful hills ensure that tourism has taken notice. An unspoilt and charming place, this is a definite up and coming area.
Real estate investors should be aware that the economy in Saxony grew by 4% in 2006, making it the fastest growing German state in terms of finance. The preserved historic towns ensure tourism is a growing industry, and with budget flights serviced by Ryan Air, the property market is expected to do very well indeed.
