Reinpark

In 2013, Reynpark turned 100 years old. This is Cologne's largest and most visited park.

Reinpark

The Rheinpark is Cologne's largest park, with an area of about 50 hectares. It is so large that a miniature railway has even been laid on its territory, which will take you from one end of the park to the other.

No less popular are other means of transportation - bicycles and roller skates. On sunny days, locals settle in entire green spaces with entire families. Especially crowded in the park on Sundays, when everyone around is having picnics, barbecues, playing football, riding the rides and just relaxing.

The park offers beautiful views of the Rhine, the towers of the cathedral and the Old Town. And if you sit in the cabin of the cable car, the stop of which is located in Reinpark, you can, moving from one side of the river to the other, see the panorama of Cologne, the Rhine and the surrounding area. There is a cafe in the park selling snacks and drinks. Very close is the famous "Dancing Fountain" (Tanzbrunnen). Concerts are held here in the evenings.

To relax and unwind, visit the Klavdieva Terme complex, which is also located in the Reinpark.

How do I save on hotels?

Everything is very simple - look not only at the booking. I prefer the search engine RoomGuru. He is looking for discounts at the same time on Booking and on 70 other booking sites.

The new development is another way to use the material, for the study of which in 2010, scientists have already received the Nobel Prize.

Italy has the dirtiest air in Europe

Almost 90% of European cities have exceeded the norms of permissible air pollution, but not one can be compared with Italy: the worst situation is in Padua, and of the 30 most polluted cities in Europe, 23 are Italian. Although pollutant emissions across Europe have declined, 88% of European cities are still exposed to substances recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as harmful to the body.

Italian city fined 650 euros for "noisy waterfall"

A small town, spread out on the shore of Lake Como, will have to pay a fine for a too noisy waterfall. For thousands of years it took shape, for hundreds of years it was a favorite destination for tourists, until one day this amazing fountain seemed “too noisy” to the locals. The authorities of the city of Bellano, which is located on the shores of the famous Italian lake Como, will be forced to pay a fine after local residents complained that lumps of water in a beautiful creation of nature fall "too noisy", which makes it difficult to watch TV with open windows.

Italians prefer to go to work by car

According to a recent study by InfoJobs.it, 60% of Italians move with their own car. At the same time, 44% of respondents work less than half an hour's walk from home. The risk of getting stuck in traffic jams, breathing exhaust fumes and wasting time with other motorists scares the Italians much less than the probability of being left without a car.
