There are 2,000 years of history in Cologne, and visitors here will find everything from Roman towers to Gothic churches to fine examples of modern architecture. Cologne has a variety of museums, too—check out the Museum of Applied Art, the Museum Ludwig and, if you have a sweet tooth, the Chocolate Museum. Be forewarned, though—the gift shop at the latter will utterly ruin your diet.

"This place is temporarily closed." This skyscraper offers commanding views of the Cologne Cathedral and invites visitors to look at exhibitions, eat at its Mongolian barbecue restaurant and take in views of the surrounding area from its Panorama Observatory. Entrance to the building is free, access to the viewing platform costs 3 euros. Open Oct. 1 to April 30, Monday-Friday from noon-6 p.m., from 10 a.m. on weekends. May through September open until 10 p.m.
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.

Come soak and luxuriate in baths and saunas that evoke Cologne's Roman past. Claudius Therme is open 9 a.m. to midnight every day of the year, on Mondays the indoor sauna is reserved for women. Bathing suits are required in the thermal pools and bathing section of the baths, but are not permitted in saunas and showers. Tickets are sold for two-hour periods, four-hour periods or for a full day.
Possibly the most beautiful thermal baths in Europe! €14.50 for 2 hours, which was just enough time. The outdoor jacuzzi really made the trip, absolutely gorgeous in January.

Watched an Ice-Hockey game here which was enjoyable but the arena itself is easy to find by foot or public transport (tram or underground) and the layout is very accesssible
