Culture and Sightseeing
Plein lies on the Maare-Mosel-Radweg (cycling path) on the former Wittlich-Daun railway right-of-way; here it leads across two viaducts and through two tunnels. Since the TV-Wandertag there have been four marked hiking trails of the Trierischer Volksfreund (daily newspaper, abbreviated “TV”).

Famous quotes containing the words culture and and/or culture:
“The genius of American culture and its integrity comes from fidelity to the light. Plain as day, we say. Happy as the day is long. Early to bed, early to rise. American virtues are daylight virtues: honesty, integrity, plain speech. We say yes when we mean yes and no when we mean no, and all else comes from the evil one. America presumes innocence and even the right to happiness.”
—Richard Rodriguez (b. 1944)
“Ours is a culture based on excess, on overproduction; the result is a steady loss of sharpness in our sensory experience. All the conditions of modern life—its material plenitude, its sheer crowdedness—conjoin to dull our sensory faculties.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
