Frankfurt

Frankfurt is often seen only as a transit hub or a business centre, but it’s so much more. It boasts Germany’s most spectacular skyline, mirrored in the Main River, and Europe’s tallest office building. It’s also the country’s most international town; more than a quarter of its citizens are foreign.

Flâneurs get the best view of Frankfurt. Luckily most of its obvious attractions are located around the city centre. Invest in a ‘Museumsufer’ ticket (available at museums) and spend a couple of days cruising Frankfurt’s galleries and museums at a fraction of their individual prices.
