Hi!
When I asked people about Essen they all replied "Oh, it's so ugly". Then I asked "have you been there?" and all said "No". |
|  | I have been to Essen several times, mostly for rowing regattas but also for a walk along the Ruhr or to see the Zollverein Pit or the Villa Huegel.
Essen is so green, it's unbelieveable! So don't believe the people who tell you it's ugly....
Glück Auf! Sabsi |
