Walking Around Frankfurt

We had one day to spend in Frankfurt and wanted to  make the most of it. So, we started by taking the train to the city center and walking around with no real plan.

Our hotel was attached to the airport and the train station. There were a ton of places to eat and it made it exceptionally easy to get around.

Most people probably wouldn't just set out to walk around and see everything, but we aren't most people.

This was the end of our two weeks in Europe and getting around cities where we don't speak or read the language was becoming even easier.

We loved the contrasting architecture in Frankfurt. One area would be these more traditional buildings and the next street over would be completely modern. 

It was easy to get around by just picking a building we thought looked interesting and heading toward it.

We were able to see many of the iconic sights in the city and the rain made the temperature perfect.

The very light rain also made many people hide inside so it wasn't crowded anywhere we went.

 We would see a city marker sign telling us about something important (in this case the bridge) and just walk across it.

Though the kids didn't seem nearly as impressed by this bridge as the ones in Venice. 

For more about Frankfurt, check back tomorrow.
