Full German Experience: Unmissable Small Town Koblenz@Münzpl.
蕙质兰心蕙质兰心:“The German Cape is a piece of land located at the confluence of the Moselle and Rhine rivers in Koblenz, Germany. There is a magnificent bronze equestrian sculpture of the first emperor of the German Empire, William I.
On the top of the mountain opposite the berth is the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. Around 1000 AD, a small castle building appeared here. In the following centuries, the electors of Trier converted it into a fortress. Later, it was destroyed by the French, and the Kingdom of Prussia also sent people to repair the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. This fortress is one of the most powerful fortresses built in Europe after 1815, and it is still well preserved.”
Open tomorrow at 10:00 AM-1:00 PM, 1:30 PM-6:00 PM
crystal jing:“Trier - Marx's former residence, Marx statue: They have two completely different attitudes towards Marx, one proud and the other disgusted. But this small town absolutely loves their sponsor. Marx's German version of Capital is sold everywhere, and his head portraits and sculptures are everywhere. I searched three times for the last statue of Marx sent by China, and I only took a photo from a distance. Hello, Uncle Ma, goodbye.”
Open tomorrow at 9:30 AM-5:00 PM (admission ends at 5:00 PM)
_We***23:“I like the quietness here. I drove from Paris in September 2021.
I came to Cochem by accident. I spent the night last night. It is a very suitable place for leisure and healing. There are many small towns along the river. Cochem is the largest one here, and there are cruise ships. If you like morning jogging, it is recommended to go to the river in the morning when there are few cars.”
野笗:“Cologne, a famous city and heavy industrial city on the Rhine River in western Germany, is the fourth largest city in Germany, the economic, cultural and historical center of the Rhine region, and one of the most important ports in inland Germany. This is an ancient and elegant city, and also a metropolis with a strong modern atmosphere.
Cologne, a famous city and heavy industrial city on the Rhine River in western Germany, is the fourth largest city in Germany, the economic, cultural and historical center of the Rhine region, and one of the most important ports in inland Germany. This is an ancient and elegant city, and also a metropolis with a strong modern atmosphere. The Romans established the city here in BC, and it ushered in unprecedented development in the Middle Ages, becoming an important church, art and education center in Germany. There are many scenic spots and beautiful scenery in the city of Cologne, and the most famous cathedral is a well-deserved treasure of Cologne.”
suifeng2019:“Mainz Cathedral is a reddish sandstone building. It has been repaired many times in history because of wars and fires. When we went there, the top of the church's bell tower was still under repair. The interior of the church is also reddish sandstone. It lacks the exquisiteness and magnificence of the Rococo style, but is more solemn and dignified.”
翱翔的大鲨鱼:“Take a cruise down the Rhine Valley from Saint-Gol to Boppard. The scenery along the way is like a fairy tale. The castle on the top of the mountain, the town with cute houses and steeple churches, and the vineyards on the hillside are so charming. I Like it very much.”
Open tomorrow at 9:00 AM-6:00 PM (admission ends at 5:30 PM)
poohwubear:“Trier, which is in southwest Germany and close to Luxembourg, is the oldest city in Germany and was an important administrative center for the Western Roman Empire. The city is very walkable, and I was able to get everywhere on foot with the help of Google Maps. A full, packed day is enough to cover the major sites and take in the many fascinating ancient Roman ruins. I managed to tour the Porta Nigra, which was a city gate and later a church - Trier is a must-visit for European history buffs and UNESCO World Heritage site lovers!”
Opening hours: January 1-December 31 Monday-Friday 9:00 AM-6:00 PM, January 1-December 31 Saturday-Sunday 9:00 AM-7:00 PM
martinsang:“Most tour groups don't pass by here, so there are very few Chinese tourists. The museum is very large and has a collection of classic cars of various brands, motorcycles, trains, fire trucks, etc. There are also civilian aircraft, fighters, transport aircraft, including crashed fighters during World War II. Some of the aircraft can be climbed up to visit, and then slide down on the slide. It is worth visiting.”

TheForkUser:“Amazing food and delicious wines. We took the accompanying wine package and it was really really delicious.A bit pricey but you get truly good food for this.”
TheForkUser:“The restaurant was beautiful and staff were very attentive and friendly. The menu does leave much to be desired and there weren’t many options for my husband who was a vegetarian. However the food that we did get tasted good”
TheForkUser:“Food very very good. Service by far not at the expected level (example ; student waiters, table unsatable) . Value for money not good. (price out of any rational).”
TheForkUser:“Very tasty food and good wine with a wonderful view of the Loreley. The manager and staff were very friendly and accommodating. We'd love to go back!”
Starde198:“A very high-end restaurant. My girlfriend and I had a very romantic dinner here. Of course, the price is relatively high, but it is still worth it for the service and quality.”
TheForkUser:“A highly recommended restaurant. Wine is served exclusively by the glass and remains at the table. White wine is kept chilled at all times; great service!”
TheForkUser:“There is not much to complain about the quality of the food; the chef deserves a big pat on the back.
The prices are on the high side; €6.00 for a bowl of fries is quite a lot, as is a bowl of soup for €8.00.”
TheForkUser:“We really liked the highly recommended restaurant and the very friendly staff. The food is delicious, everything is very clean and the atmosphere is very pleasant.
We can only recommend it.”
