Luxembourg City is the capital of Luxembourg, one of the smallest nations in the United Nations.  Only 51 miles long and 32 miles wide, the country sits between France, Germany and Belgium.  The city is divided by a deep gorge of the Petrusse River.  The river (really more creek than river) is the site for a park that winds through the city's two halves.  Most of the photos below were taken in the park.
