The Red Dot Design Museum in Essen is definitely the place designers dream of. There are two Red Dot Design Museums around the world, which showcase many very creative designs, including industrial design, furniture art design, and advertising design. Imagination is rich and eye-opening.

Historic industrial monuments and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001. For us, this is mainly to check in to see the buildings, after all, this is the most modern and beautiful coal mining complex in the world.

Our home is on the Rhine in Düsseldorf, so we come to this park and the river every day. The banks on the Rhine are beautiful and valuable. Every Sunday there are various activities, sometimes food gatherings, sometimes antique car exhibitions, It's pretty fun.

Bridges
魔女锦鲤
The classic photo I often see is a photo of the Hohenzollern Bridge and the Cologne Cathedral. Walking east along the Cologne Cathedral, you will come to the bridge. On both sides of the bridge are sidewalks and bicycle lanes, and in the middle is the railway track. Walking on the bridge, there are trains passing by on the middle track from time to time. Standing in the middle of the bridge or on the west bank of the bridge is a better place to enjoy. On the side of the sidewalk near the track, there are colorful and dense love locks. It is said that hanging a lock on the Hohenzollern bridge, throwing the key into the Rhine, love can be long, so many locals, and tourists who come here, have carved their names and lovers on the lock and left on this bridge, accumulated over the years, more and more locks, Colorful copper locks, forming unique landscape. Reason to go: Germany's most romantic bridge

This was a unique experience! Farina is the original Eau de Colonge, and the tour is in the origianl house. (The factory moved out of the city center.) Our tour guide was Weibke, who did a wonderful pesentation in English. She is very knowledgable, and explained a lot of historical facts. The museum is small, but packed with a lot of antiques and information. I was glad that I didn't buy the other brand of colonge at the Cathedral, since 4711 it is not the original

Essen Cathedral is a very old church, he has been a masonry for more than 500 years, with a European retro style, its light green roof is its logo. The decoration inside is very simple, and the fountain in front of the door is also very old and full of charm, it is worth visiting.
