Hesse (/ˈhɛsə/) or Hessia (German: Hessen [ˈhɛsn̩], Hessian dialect: Hesse [ˈhɛzə]) is a federal state (Land) of the Federal Republic of Germany, with just over six million inhabitants. The state capital is Wiesbaden; the largest city is Frankfurt am Main. Until the unification of Germany, the territory of Hesse was occupied by the Grand Duchy of Hesse, the Duchy of Nassau, the free city of Frankfurt and the Electorate of Hesse, known also as Hesse-Cassel. Due to divisions after World War II, the modern federal state does not cover the entire cultural region of Hesse, which includes both the State of Hesse and the area known as Rhenish Hesse (Rheinhessen) in the neighbouring state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

The Main Tower is one of the highest buildings in Frankfurt. Climb to the top of this 200-meter high building (take an elevator for the first 190 meters and walk the last 10) for incomparable views of the city.
Must see, i recommend you want through römerberg area and opera house on foot then go to main tower, you will definitely enjoy the view and the history of all the buildings you came across. I got 20% off with Frankfurt card that includes unlimited rides of public transit and trip to/from Airport.

The site of Frankfurt's city hall since 1405, this historic building remains the defining symbol of the city's historic past.

The Cathedral in Limburg am Lahn is well worth a detour from the A3. Beautifully situated above a small old-town, with scenic views of the Lahn River, this Cathedral is a flamboyant late Romanesque design with many distinctive details. The exterior painting of the building is very colorful and the interior stone arches and galleries are a delight to see. While not covered with statuary, there are several superb stone carvings inside. The nativity scene is creative and includes running water in a small stream, live goldfish, and a carved elephant that is part of the wise men’s caravan. There is no entry fee. There is limited parking near the Dom and a W/C at the bottom of the plaza.

More sights at one place can hardly be found in Darmstadt: Hochzeitsturm (Wedding tower), Russian Orthodox Church (Built on Russian soil), Museum Künstlerkolonie (Museum artist colony), surrounded by some pretty Art Nouveau villas ... just rest at one of the nice places and enjoy the atmosphere - a short excursion is worthwhile in any case.

I went on a beautiful sunny day in August with my mom. Since she is not so good on food we started our afternoon at Wilhelmshöhe Castle and walked around there to see the big water fountain.The park is beautiful and well maintained and good to walk for older people or people in a wheel chair. i would recommend to go on weekdays. I found weekends are to crowded. We finished off with a nice cool Beer in the Park Hotel's Beer garden just beside the Castle. It was a nice afternoon and I will definitely go there again.
