Travel guide to Baden-Baden, Germany
The city has many interesting traditions connected with conduction of sporting events. For example, the fair sex visitors absolutely must wear a charming hat at the hippodrome. There are many trading pavilions near the hippodrome that sell hundreds of designs of clothes and hats, so you will be easily able to select a proper outfit for the holiday. Champagne remains the most popular holiday drink. Before the start of the races all the guests gather on a spacious terrace in front of the Hippodrome, where they are welcome to try excellent food and delicious snacks. While enjoying the meal, you can see how the horses are prepared for the race, and once the breakfast is over, all visitors are invited to return to their places. Horse racing has long become a good national tradition, so visiting the legendary Iffezheim hippodrome is the dream of every traveler.

There are also many interesting stories connected with the name of the city. Until 1931 the city was known as Baden, but due to a frequent confusion the city was given a double name. The reason for this is in the fact that there are also the cities named Baden in the suburban district of Vienna and in Switzerland. These are not all remarkable facts about the famous spa city. Baden-Baden is also known as the first city, in which has been issued the world's first certificate authorizing the organization and conducting of gambling. The significant event took place in 1748. Another no less important historical event happened here 110 years later, when the first official international horse races in the world were held here. As it is not hard to guess, the famous sporting event took place at Iffezheim hippodrome. The casino is also known as a kind of a symbol of the city. It suspended its operations only during World War II. The re-opening of the casino took place in 1950 and coincided with the beginning of the first post-war holiday season. Since that time the world-famous gambling establishment has welcomed its guests every day.
