Introducing Frankfurt
The city of Frankfurt might just surprise you; it’s a destination that can sometimes be overlooked for the capital but when it comes to food and shopping, history and culture, sights and attractions, sunset views and river cruises, Frankfurt really can hold its own. Set along Germany’s Main River, much of this city was destroyed during the Second World War and was later rebuilt and pieced back together. As a result, we now have a stylish and slick city which features a fantastic fusion of old and new, of classic and contemporary. And from its countless sights and must-see historical buildings in the Old Town area to its modern shopping malls and busy high streets, there’s something to suit just about everyone. A great city break destination all year round.
