Cultural events organised by the International Office: An excursion to Frankfurt
Student Yana Milenova Taseva (International Business) reports:
“What kind of city is Frankfurt? What is special about it? Those were my questions before my first trip to this magical city. If they are also your questions, read this short article to get an idea!
The first thing I remember is the sight of the wonderful skyscrapers and their incredible architecture. Later, when we started our city tour, my amazement increased when I noticed the contrast between the (recently) rebuilt Old Town (with its lovely Christmas market atmosphere) and the metropolitan and modern feel of the city.
The location on the Main was also impressive, the "Eiserner Steg" bridge with its many love locks is particularly charming.
St. Bartholomew's Cathedral, made of red sandstone, evoked strong feelings in me with its beautiful Gothic architecture and the music of its huge pipe organ. The church tower has a 360-degrees view of Frankfurt from a height of 100 meters. All I have to say that getting to the top is very interesting, but also quite strenuous.
It is up to you whether you want to make the effort, but I assure you that the view is well worth it :)
