Magdeburg goes creative into the fall: cycling day and art enjoyment!

While some are preparing for autumn, the author still has the idea of ​​enjoying the last days of summer with her best friend in her head. Trips to picturesque beaches, charming restaurants and small, hidden places are on her agenda. Summer is expected to last until October before the cool season arrives.
