Discover the banks of the Main River in Germany towards Frankfurt, where nature and modernity meet harmoniously. Peaceful geese line the green banks (despite very gloomy weather, but it is December). You can admire the Frankfurt SkyLine, an impressive cylindrical tower, and the River Queen Boat (from Rotherdam, Netherlands), and an old steam locomotive, proudly smoking through the park, contrasting with the modern lines of the surrounding buildings. Between nature, industry and design, each corner reveals a different face of this vibrant city.
Typical Frankfurt meal at the Restaurant Frankfurter Wirsthaus.
A starter, a local dish, Handkäse mit Musik with strong flavors, combining marinated cheese, red onions and caraway.
A main course, an unmissable Frankfurt Schnitzel accompanied by potatoes and the famous green sauce (Grüne Soße), an explosion of freshness based on seven local herbs: chives (Schnittlauch), burnet (Pimpernel), borage (Borretsch), parsley (Petersilie), chervil (Kerbel), watercress (Kresse) and sorrel (Sauerampfer).
Delicious.
