My all-time favorite restaurant in Frankfurt. It has been established in 1920 but was taken over by the Nordsee food chain in the 1970's. The nice thing about the restaurant is that it is two sections, one is an Imbiss, where you get your own - the other part table-serviced restaurant, the prices mo…

What do you see when you look up to the top of the great cathedral of Notre Dame? You see monsters, half-man and half-beast. These demon looking creatures carved out of stone are called gargoyles. They are one of the many eerie stone figures that adorn the gutters of the Cathedral of Notre Dame in P…

The most recognized landmark in Helsinki, the Lutheran Cathedral is a must-see for any visitor. The cathedral was designed by Carl Ludvig Engel and dates to 1852. Admission is free, though services are held on Sunday mornings, during which time visitors are not allowed inside.
It is very easy to …

This is a very interesting place to visit - that is, if you don't mind feeling crowded. Despite how big it looks, it feels quite small inside with many passages narrow enough for just one person to pass through at a time. It's also quite dark, but using a flash with your cameras doesn't seem to be a…

The cathedral is something every visitor, recently new resident and local has to see - from the inside and out.
I moved to Cologne a few years ago and everytime I walk close by the cathedral I am awed. Don't think I'll ever get tired of seeing it :) I'm not really religious, but there is somethin…

We were just walking around the Cathedral and we found this place called VALOR Chocolates, which is a small cafeteria specialized on chocolates.

The building itself is beautiful, there are no right angles or straight lines in the entire structure. To quote the reason for this remarkable plan it "represents the unpredictable path of human growth". The beautiful metalwork that …

Today’s the most famous local landmark which made the town known for tourists, is the famous bell tower (1800) of the St. Nicholas Cathedral of the former monastery. It is the only remnant of the monastery which luckily avoided demolition. It surrealistically rises out of the water of the Uglich r…

This is a must-see in Madrid! A beautiful cathedral, build in neoclassicism architecture, to make it fit with the style of the palacio real that is next to it.

This cathedral is an experience not to miss out on if you're ever traveling in the Black Forest. The acustics in the cathedral are outstanding. If there is a concert, take up the oppertunity to hear the wonderous beauty. It is under construction so there may be scaffolding, but don't let that detrac…

If nothing else, head to the city center. There are many things to see, do and shop for. Like most of the cities in Germany the city center is where most of the life is at and the majority of the resturants, so there will always be something to do. A really nice cathedral is located in the center an…

St. Paul's is a centrepiece of London. You can see the massive dome from most spots in the city. When you arrive there will be people sitting on the front steps, probably resting for the journey ahead. You will pay £10 to enter, cheaper for groups and families.
When it is closed you can't see…
