2. A Green and Sustainable Destination

Luxembourg is committed to sustainability, integrating eco-friendly practices into its daily life and business operations. As one of the first countries to offer free public transportation across its entire territory, Luxembourg is setting the standard for reducing carbon footprints. With free buses, trains, and trams, both residents and visitors can explore the country without relying on private vehicles.
