Dortmund has become a center of high-tech industry, but back in the day, it was one of Germany's first brewing centers, and Dortmunder beer is definitely worth tasting in a local bar. Visit the Reinoldkirche or the Marienkirche, or venture south of town to the ruins of Hohensyburg Castle. December is an especially festive time to visit Dortmund—one of Germany's biggest Christmas markets takes over the center of town.

This is no ordinary park, from the beautiful forests, to the lakes, and green belts, this park has it all.A skyway, a old pirate ship playground, a sky tower, and miles and miles of beautiful paths to wander down. One could spend the whole day there and never see it all. The most Beautiful park I have ever enjoyed!

Although the Botanical Garden Rombergpark in Dortmund was not officially opened until 1929, the actual one goes back to the beginning of the 19th century. The history of the place itself is full of intresting stories: from the high Middle Ages, through Napoleon's maneuver to modern times. From pig races and secret love affairs to crazy plant collectors. It was always exciting about the small piece of land on the Schondelle. Small? With over 680,000 square meters, the Botanical Garden, which mainly only called Rombergpark, is the largest of its kind in Germany and one of the largest in the world. Even today you can see the efforts and the lucky hand of its previous directors in the collections. Each director and each era has left a special signature. Huge trees - more than 200 years old - and rare, sometimes subtropical plant species make the visitor forget to linger on the eastern edge of the area called Ruhrpott. A firework of colors awaits the visitors from February to October.

Der Zoo Dortmund zählt zu den beliebtesten Ausflugzielen in Dortmund und der Region. Seit 1953 bietet er eine harmonische Präsenz von Tieren und Pflanzen in der schönen Anlage. Der Zoo Dortmund beschränkt sich dabei nicht darauf, Tiere zur Schau zu stellen, sondern liefert auch die nötige tierkundliche Information und leistet mit seiner Arbeit einen wichtigen Beitrag zum Artenschutz. Zurzeit leben etwa 1.500 Tiere in 220 Arten hier. Die Parklandschaft mit ihrem alten Baumbestand und die verschiedenen Tierhäuser machen den Zoobesuch bei jedem Wetter zu einem Erlebnis für die ganze Familie. Wir freuen uns auf Ihren Besuch!
Been many a times to Dortmund Zoo but this time was really good. Local children had gone back to school so the park was really peaceful. Adult ticket is only €8!! Which you can't complain. Not as many animals as previously but many enclosures are getting a revamp. Can't wait to see the updated park on our next visit.
