Reviewed By soinic - Lux.
Close to Luxembourg city you find this very huge and overcrowded shopping mall.
Many people who don't know what to do hang around here... (retired persons and families with their offspring)
Many shops on two levels.
Clean.
Plenty of parking.
Supermarket "cactus" offers plenty of interesting stuff ... and friendly service even in Luxembourgish language not French only!
"Food market"/restaurants aren't breathtaking.(loud,busy,bad value)
Come on a rainy day :|

When our kids were younger, we tried many different places, and although many of them are very nice (Rodange, Esch, Kirchberg...), none is like Les Thermes! The design is fantastic, it allows real swimming as well as fun, and it is definitely the best one in Luxembourg.
3. Rockhal
Overall Ratings
4 based on 142 reviews
Boasting two concert halls - the Main Hall that can accommodate an audience of up to 6500 and the Club that can hold 1200 - the Rockhal, a complex managed by the public institution Centre de Musiques Amplifiees and co-financed by the Luxembourgish State, is Luxembourg's No 1 concert venue. The Rockhal is also a Music & Resources Centre, comprising no fewer than six rehearsal rooms, a recording studio, a dance studio and a documentation centre. In short, a place where players of the Luxembourg music scene, professional and amateur alike, can interact and share their views on the local industry.

All the big names in a small city concert hall with perfect sound. Parking spaces near by, free train rides with your concert ticket from Luxembourg City right in front of the Rockhal, restaurants and bars around. There's no better place in the Greater Region to experience big music Concerts.
4. Eglise Saint-Donat
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 44 reviews
Reviewed By Amazon122s - Santa Comba Dao, Portugal
The Saint-Donat church of Arlon is situated on the « Knippchen », this is the name of the central « Hill » where the church is built on and in the history was occupied by the « Gallo-Romans ». The church was built by the “Capuchins » in the year 1626 and restored in the year 1851, and once again in the 19th century. On the moment of our visit we were not able to see the church on the inside, this due to the restauration works. But anyhow you have some nice views around the church also.
5. Luxembourg American Cemetery Memorial

I wanted to come to see Patton’s burial site. A must for any WWII enthusiast or history buff. Getting here wasn’t the quickest or easiest though. You have to go by bus (#15 is what I took) and at the Käschtewee stop you exit. From there it’s a 10 minute or so walk. There are signs, and it does sometimes seem like you might be going the wrong way (it goes under a major road) but keep walking - you’ll find it! Once inside you will see it’s a quick tour. The cemetery isn’t that large. If you stop in the visitors center you can get a guide. Patton’s burial site is front and center while the rest are in sections A-E. Make note there are some Jewish graves there marked with a Star of David. Be sure to go inside the chapel too.
6. Le Chemin de la Corniche

Reviewed By Levanda - London, United Kingdom
Was very excited to visit here after Reading about this online. However didn’t even realise I was at the Corniche when actually there. It doesn’t stand out as a balcony yet just a high up street. The views are nice from here but no different from when in the caves. You can’t really avoid the Corniche when visiting Luxembourg as it’s such a small city.

The Luxembourg Philharmonic is 10 minute drive from Luxembourg Train Station. It is located in the Kirchberg plateau. It’s in the same vicinity as MUDAM Luxembourg, Fort Thüngen, Musée Dräi Eechelen (Three Acorns Museum) and Parc des Trois Glands. You can spend a whole day visiting these places.

Reviewed By Eric F - Luxembourg City, Luxembourg
Luxembourg is a town settle on top of some hills and in between the hills there is the river and some nice places. "Usually", the top of the hills are for business, new settlements, active life and downhill is more quiet, more old town, more housing. That's the Grund, downhill in the valley. That's also where most of the cultural events in Luxembourg and a lot of the night life are
