In the centre of Europe, Frankfurt's 4.8 million inhabitants live in a dynamic city. Its position in the Rhine Valley region offers fantastic opportunities for exploring glorious countryside and many sporting activities.
Running through the city, the banks of the River Main have a lot to offer. Cyclists and inline skaters have recently discovered the views and promenades of the banks and joined the pedestrians and roller skaters. The so-called Museumsufer (museum bank) represents a unique vultural achievement that enhances the charm of the river's landscape.
Frankfurt's dramatic skyline of modern office buildings (including the highest skyscraper in Europe) is a sign of its standing as one of the first financial centres in Europe.
But Frankfurt is not only an economic centre of excellence, it offers many cultural activities worthy of such a modern city. It has 37 museums, 109 galleries, 33 theatres and more than 50 cinemas.
