Kaiserslautern was transformed for the football World Cup 2006, and it still shows in almost every aspect of public life in the city. Streets have been re-paved, flowers planted, and the train station and stadium have undergone extension. It has been a lot of work for ‘just five football games’ some might argue, but it's certainly a welcome boost for K-Town, as the place is called by the many Americans living and working on the military base nearby.
If you are a visitor to K-Town now, however, you will most certainly profit from all this work because Kaiserslautern has rarely been so lovely.
The Palatine Forest near Kaiserslautern teems with hikers, bikers, motorcyclists and campers. For people who prefer to practice sports themselves rather than watching it, we’ve put together a few ideas in our Palatine Forest feature.

Have eaten here 3 times this past year. It gets better every time we go there. First time was during the Italy-Germany game so I think they were distracted....Go Indoor-Kart
Be prepared!! We arrived at 2:30 on Sun afternoon with two excited 9 year olds. Even though the place did not seem at all crowded, we were told it would be a two hour wait and the surroundings were not at all conducive to waiting (noise, smelling gas fumes, etc)....Thairama

one of the best Greek meals I have had anywhere. The brothers (owners) will treat you as family. I ate there weekly when I lived in Germany 1991-2005....Karibik
The best club by far. You pay 10 euros for the first drink. The girls are great, very friendly! But like all exotic clubs in this area it's expensive....Firenze
