CITY SOUTH. This historic and lovely site in the south of the city was once part of the wall that protected the city from invasion. Later, it would house a windmill and a large stone tower. A symbol of the rich heritage of the city and the region.

RHEINPARK. Everyone needs a little rest and relaxation after a day spent in business meetings or sightseeing, and this spot in the heart of the Rheinpark offers just the thing. The Therme is built in the style of an old Roman bath, with swimming, health spas, and beauty treatments. The views of the Rhine and the park from inside are extraordinary.

CITY CENTER. This is one of the most important sites in Cologne – and, in fact, the world – as it stands in the very heart of the city. The massive church has roots dating back to the eighth century and has been an integral part of the city's history. The massive structure is both beautiful and awe-inspiring. The interior features a range of historic and religious artifacts. For the adventurous, walk to the top of the spire and look over the city. The climb is a definite workout, but the views of Cologne and the Rhine warrant the effort. Truly a must-see for anyone in the city.

The glorious and much-loved Rhine River, central theme for novels, stories, songs and flourishing cities, quickly winds its way through the heart of Cologne. The river is a truly marvelous sight to behold, as are the boats that cruise along under the city's many bridges. Cross the river at the Hohenzoller Brucke Bridge and then head north to the Rheinpark.
