The fascination of Frankfurt

Frankfurt am Main is known as the German business metropolis with its huge skyscrapers and countless banks and, ultimately, the German stock exchange. But Frankfurt is much more than just that. The population here is a colourful mix. Multiculturalism on virtually every corner.
That’s why there are restaurants, cafés and food shops with specialities from all over the world everywhere. Despite the sometimes hectic hustle and bustle in the city’s banking districts, life in Frankfurt is quite peaceful. The Main invites you to take a walk or do some sport.
The Main promenade often even conveys a holiday feeling. Those seeking peace and quiet as well as sports enthusiasts also get their money’s worth, for example in the Frankfurt city forest, which is one of the largest municipal forests in Germany. In the north, Frankfurt borders the Taunus low mountain range, which offers countless leisure activities. Today, 736,000 people live in the metropolis on the Main and enjoy the city’s amenities.

Culture, economy, education

The city centre with the Zeil, Germany’s busiest shopping street, and the famous Goethestrasse invite you to shop in all price categories. Although Frankfurt is a large city, you can cross the city centre in just 20 minutes and enjoy an architectural mix of impressive skyscrapers, modern shopping centres and historic facades. This picture is certainly unique in Germany.

After a hard day’s work, you can wind down in one of the countless, extremely cosy bars and pubs and enjoy a glass of Hessian cider. These bars have certainly also developed thanks to the large, renowned Goethe University. Frankfurt is also a student city with excellent facilities especially for students, which means that the population in Frankfurt is significantly younger than in other cities in the country.

The city stands for multiculturalism, wealth and culture, but also for recreation and the breathtaking skyline. It also stands for excellent transport links. The entire city is served by a dense network of underground, suburban railway and bus lines.

Frankfurt is also home to Germany’s largest international airport and a dense network of motorways around the city. This means you can always get to your destination quickly in Frankfurt, which has become extremely important in today’s world.
