"Frankfurt am Main is a city often criticized for its lack of personality, that's the reason it will surprise to you. One of the best skyscrapers landscape of europe, a big quantity of small museums and a perfect reconstructed historical center will be enough to make a weekend worthy. Don't forget to taste the original Apfelwein."
