Cologne - the city of love and lively spirit

in Worldmappin2 years ago

A few days ago, my friend invited me to come to her place in Cologne. She lives between Belgrade and Cologne because her husband works in Cologne, so she is there very often. I have many friends abroad and usually before Christmas I receive invitations to visit them.

I was very interested in Cologne because I have never been there, but I think that this year my financial situation will not allow me to travel there. My friend is persistent, so she keeps sending me photos in order to interest me even more and motivate me to come. She has great impressions of this German city and says that she would have a lot to show me there. I believe her because the photos are promising.

I would like to take a walk on the Hohenzollern Bridge. It must be an amazing experience.

This bridge is called the bridge of love, like many other bridges in Europe, because of the love padlocks that can be locked there. But when you are with a loved one every bridge and place is a place of love.

The view of the Rhine River when the sun sets is especially romantic.

Or a walk on the green lawns nearby.

I love cities that have a lot of green areas, where you can isolate yourself from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy peaceful walks by the river.

I also like cities that have their own gates. Great fortifications that bear witness to the past.

Cologne is beautiful both in summer and winter. My friend tells me that there is always a lively atmosphere there and that positive vibes circulate through the city. During the summer, you can refresh yourself with Cologne beer, which has a specific and refreshing taste. In a word, it is unique. 😊

The city has a lot of cultural sights worth seeing and I plan to explore them all before I go there. But it is certain that I will see the Cologne Cathedral, one of the most impressive buildings in Germany and a masterpiece of the Middle Ages. It would be amazing to see its interior.

Cologne is a very charming city and has an old historical part that I particularly like. There are many traditional houses and religious buildings in the old town, and one of them is the church of St. Martin. The buildings of Cologne make this city a fairytale.

During the Christmas holidays, Cologne shines at night.

Beautiful decorations and Christmas markets look very attractive.

When I first read the title l, I thought it was a place with lots of cologne 😂. The one like perfume.. Hehe. It's a pretty placr .i like the architecture of the cathedral

Hahaha and my first thought was the same when I translated the name of the city into English because in Serbian we call that city "Keln".😊 The cathedral is a real masterpiece indeed.

That place is really beautiful and the photos are amazing.🥰
I can realize you enjoyed it.

Thank you very much. 🤗 It seems like a very interesting city.

A wonderful place, even I want to visit it someday, I like the buildings, the lights of the city, the bridge that looks beautiful, thank you for these splendid photographs that take us to the place.

Thank you, I'm glad you liked the photos, they inspired me too! 😊

This is such a beautiful place. You really should accept her invitation. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I am sure there will be more things to see when you get there. All the best.

I would also like to accept her invitation because Cologne is a city worth experiencing. I hope that there will be more money to make it happen. 😊

Feels like I'm in a Disney cartoon

Hola Jelena! It seems to be a gorgeous city. I hope you can visit it very soon.
Hugs 🤗

I hope so too, my friend has great impressions of the city. I hope you are well and recovering! Many hugs to you!🤗❤️

I would love to go to the bridge with you @arduilcelebren and put a padlock on it and carry our love to that bridge and that city.

Cologne is a really beautiful city. I didn't know so many details, it's really a city to visit. I think you should go here too.

A bridge of locks in the city of love.
Those places look great. Well traveled.

Gosh.. that place full of padlocks seems like a great place where to find out about lots of different stories! It must be so hard to find a free spot for a new story to be added xD

Wow - it looks lovely there. I've never been, but have heard about it before - and how many padlocks are on that bridge !? It looks great !!!
!LUV

Yes, it is a city with a positive spirit. Love padlocks seem to be very popular. 😊 Thank you!🤗

I love cities that have a lot of green areas, where you can isolate yourself from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy peaceful walks by the river.

Same here...Lovely shots you have there
