Village life in Germany is a combination of tradition and modernity that has come together. The villages in Germany are known for their natural beauty, as well as the beautiful and picturesque traditional buildings, and of course, the organized life of the people there.

In Germany, you can easily find fruits that are difficult to find in Indonesia. Fruits such as apples, pears, peaches, and berries are sold at high prices in Indonesia. But in Germany, these fruits actually grow a lot. Some fruits cannot be grown in Indonesia, such as cherries, pears, blueberries, and others. However, in some countries, these fruits can be grown easily. They even usually grow wild on the side of the road. Many Indonesians living abroad take advantage of the growth of these fruits, because it is very difficult to get them in Indonesia. In fact, the price is quite expensive. They harvest and take in large quantities. In the field of fruit planting, the apple tree is the most planted and contributes 68% of the total fruit tree area in Germany.
