Actually I travelled to Koeln last year after my CeBIT reporting trip in Hannover, but indeed I stayed there just a Saturday afternoon and an overnight. This time I can see more about the city, and get to the top of the Cathedral, which I was too afraid to try last time. And all I can say is, it is a very very very cooooooool and beautiful city! Everyone must take a look there!

| The night train I travelled with... with beds and breakfast! | The typical view of Cologne! But well, I am not sure if the Koelner Dom is more beautiful than the Regensburger Dom, and also if the river Rhein is more attractive than the river Donau... |

| The State Museum of Koeln... Topped by The golden flying Car, which indicates the prosperity of modern Cologne brought by the car industry in 1920s, as the Pre-war Mayor Konrad Adenauer (also the first Post-war Bundeskanzler of Germany) introduced Ford building its motor plant there. | |
