About the destination

Cologne, a hub for industry and transportation since the days of ancient Rome, boasts a deeply rich cultural history. Despite 95% of the city being destroyed during World War II, it miraculously bounced back, with many of its historic churches and monuments painstakingly restored. Today, Cologne stands as a vibrant and appealing center for European art. A visit to this city is well worth it, even if just to see the renowned cathedral, though there's much more to explore. Located on the banks of the Rhine River, the city's skyline is dominated by the cathedral. This awe-inspiring cathedral, known for its stunning stained-glass windows, is rightfully celebrated as one of the finest examples of High-Gothic architecture in the world. Cologne is home to one of the largest old town centers in the country, with the cathedral serving as its heart and soul. Across the square from the cathedral is the Römisch-Germanisches Museum, which houses artifacts from the original Roman colony. Art lovers should not miss the Wallrof-Richartz museum and Museum Ludwig, one of the country's premier art galleries, known for its exceptional use of natural light. The old town is also dotted with a number of 12th and 13th century churches, as well as several ultra-modern post-war style buildings. People from Cologne are known for being cosmopolitan, open-minded, and friendly. Evenings and weekends in the city resemble mini carnivals, with bustling crowds and a plethora of activities. Beer is the drink of choice here, and there are plenty of places to enjoy it.
