Well, you\u2019d think a trip to a financial powerhouse like Frankfurt wouldn\u2019t be that high on anyone&#8217;s list other than a business traveller. But, it\u2019s time to think again!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Frankfurt is the German hub that welcomes the business world to its glass sided skyscrapers and large shopping malls. It\u2019s home to the European bank, which should give you an idea of its commercial clout. Look a little deeper however and you\u2019ll find a city that\u2019s quite different from its world-renowned business themed exterior. It\u2019s a charming destination, with plenty of cultural highs and a vibrant nightlife to enjoy.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yep, take the financial cover off and you\u2019ll find a city of half-timbered buildings and a quaint old town. A city to discover taverns and outdoor cafes where you can sit and watch the business world go, well, about their business! Take a walk in one of the beautiful parks or gardens. Perhaps stroll along the riverside? And with a nightlife that is bolstered by a student population. Well, this transport and business hub has more than meets the eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s explore some of its best bits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/frankfurt\/sightseeing-in-frankfurt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Exploring around the city<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/theguidebook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Frankfurt-1.1.jpg\" alt=\"Frankfurt\" class=\"wp-image-14668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Frankfurt-1.1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Frankfurt-1.1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets-guidebook.isango.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Frankfurt-1.1-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Frankfurt has a history that dates from the Roman Empire, through the Napoleonic wars and way beyond! So, it ensures you have a mix of history and cosmopolitanism to uncover. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isango.com\/frankfurt\/hop-on-hop-off\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hop-on hop-off bus tour<\/a> will allow you to see the contrast. The old town, with its mellow timbered buildings and the glass-sided towers of the financial district. There are several key attractions to look out for en route and will include.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Frankfurt Opera House<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The Cathedral<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Palais Thurn und Taxis<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Naturmuseum Senckenberg<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are more, as well as squares like Romerberg, to get your fill of Frankfurt\u2019s atmosphere.

A street food tour is the perfect way to capture the authentic taste. Mainhatten, as it\u2019s known, is where you\u2019ll discover dishes that include the sausages,&nbsp;\u201cGrie So\u00df\u201d&nbsp;deluxe or an apple treat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, apples play a big role in Frankfurt, so be sure to try the cider too.
