The 'Green' City

by Peter_P - last update: Jul 3, 2004

A room with a view...

Skyscrapers in Frankfurt
After a few visits to the city, more and more I get used to the ‘atmosphere’ in Frankfurt. Being a modern city, does not mean it’s not interested to visit. Maybe nightlife is not that exited than somewhere else, museums are not that ‘exclusive’, and the center is not ‘that’ old… but Frankfurt is aware that it offers a lot for its tourists. Big shopping centers, good restaurants, nightlife focused on cinema, theaters and some nightclubs.

Maybe a misleading picture... it was only raining for about 2 hours on a Saturday afternoon. The rest of the weekend the weather was more then fine...
It's a clean and green town :) Small parks can be found everywhere.

This picture was taken from the 32th floor of the Marriott Hotel, where my room was. Not bad after all...:-)
An example of one of those green-spots in the middle of the city. People come here to relax and probably to cool down.

The 'Dom' on the right and a quiet river with some canoes...

 I enjoyed your photos of Frankfurt. If I end up having a stopover there during my vacation next year I'll definitely have to visit some of these places.
