This giant Gothic cathedral, which until its completion in 1880 had been under construction for over 500 years, is perhaps Germany's most famous religious structure and includes two huge towers that serve as the defining symbol of Cologne's skyline.

Köln Triangle is conveniently located a short walk across the Hohenzollernbrücke and just a couple of minutes walk from the Messe/Deutz train station. Admission costs €3 per person which is one of the cheapest I’ve paid for any viewing admission. The lift takes you up to the 28th floor and then take the stairs up to the observation deck or for those who need a lift to the top there is an accessible lift which will take you right the way to the top. Take in the 360c panorama of Cologne with views over the Rhein and out to the cathedral - it really is breathtaking.

This bridge over the Rhine River can be crossed by foot or by train. Since 2008 padlocks have adorned a fence on the bridge, affixed by couples as a sign of love and commitment.

Walk the bridge toward the Dom at sunset. The photos you will get from the experience is worth it. March its cold so rug up but having walked 68 kilometers of Cologne . I can say I adore the city and all it has to offer. The love locks the length of the bridge are sweet and a testament to couples in love from around the world.Walking over the Rhine is beautiful a must do if in Koln.

The Cathedral, the Rathaus and the Gross St. Martin church are absolutely stunning. Then there are pretty squares, secondary attractions and modern buildings too as the city was nearly destroyed during WWII. Lots of places to eat & drink.
