Gothic Festival in Leipzig
We report on the 21st Wave Gothic Festival that was held in Leipzig, Germany.
Anish Kapoor in Berlin
We meet the famous sculptor who now has an exhibition at the Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin. His mirrored sculptures are world-renowned.
Prix Benois de la Danse
The Oscars of the dance world -- the Prix Benois de la Danse -- are handed out annually at Moscow's Bolshoi Theater. They single out the year's best choreographer as well as to the best male and female dancers and composers. Euromaxx was at this year's gala event.
Top Spanish Restaurants
We head to Spain to visit El Cellar de Can Roca in Catalonia. Run by three brothers, it was recently named the best place to eat on the globe at the restaurant industry's top awards. The win reflects a trend: the north eastern region of Spain is regaining its reputation as the area with the world's most exceptional eateries.
On the Trail of Richard Wagner
We travel to Bayreuth which is where the German composer spent the last 10 years of his life. We visit his home, the restaurant he frequented and of course the theater he planned.
