Hello everybody! I noticed that the most beautiful photographs of churches are obtained in black and white. I happened to visit the third largest church in the world - Cologne Cathedral. The building is replete with various elements that are creative looking in color and black and white.
The Cologne Cathedral was able to survive the Second World War due to the fact that, thanks to its height, it served as a reference point for military pilots. In addition, in the 18th century, the cathedral was the tallest building in the world. But not for long.

Whichever side of the building you are on, you will always be impressed.

Even the most unassuming tourist cannot ignore history. A story that has been built for a long time and will never be completed.
The building of the Cologne Cathedral is seen from many points of the city. Certainly not everywhere, but in the nearest quarters you can see this magnificent building.
Cologne Cathedral is one of the city's main attractions. Not only cities but also Germany. Not only in Germany, but also in Europe. But it turns out that Cologne Cathedral is included in the list of world heritage, which means that it is a religious world attraction. One of...
