    • Indeed, the English language is a strange one: a cobbler (shoe maker) and cobbles (stoney path) are so similar, yet most shoes really don't go well with cobbles.

    As with most old European cities, Heidelberg is no exception to the wonderous and picturesque cobbled streets.
    We have a saying in German: "Wer schoen sein will muss leiden" = "if you want to be pretty you must suffer".
    And you feet will truly suffer for that certain sin called "vanity" if you don't wear the appropriate old-town footwear.

    So leave your stiletto heels at home, because they may look fantastic, but you're probably also likely to break your ankles on your shopping trip!

    Wear trainers or flat sandals. Don't worry if the shoes don't go with your new skirt, or look stupid with your stylish trousers: *Just-say-no* to your fancy heels and wear something that will let you walk that extra mile!

     It has been 5+ years since I went through here and coming back soon, but probably in warmer months. Thank you for the memories and tips    		codrutz Wed Jun 17, 2009 07:24 UTC
