Following few photos from my short jump to Frankfurt am Main which is located around 200 km north of Stuttgart (appr. 2 hours drive). Frankfurt is the largest city in the German State of Hessen and the fifth largest city in Germany. Frankfurt is the largest financial centre in continental Europe and ranks among the world's leading financial centres. Due to its central location within Germany and Europe, Frankfurt is a major air, rail and highway transport hub. Frankfurt Airport is one of the world’s busiest international airports by passenger traffic and the main hub for Germany's flag carrier Lufthansa, the largest airline in Europe. Frankfurt Central Station is one of the largest railway terminal stations in Europe and the busiest junction operated by Deutsche Bahn, the German national railway company, with 342 daily trains to domestic and European destinations. Frankfurter Kreuz, the Autobahn (Freeway) Interchange close to the airport, is the most heavily used interchange in the European Union with approximately 320,000 cars daily. Frankfurt is located on both sides of the Main River south-east of the Taunus mountain range. The southern part of the city contains the Frankfurt City Forest, Germany's largest forest within a city. I’ve captured this photo with Frankfurt tram in the downtown area of Frankfurt which is located on the north side of the Main River in the city district of Altstadt (the historical old town centre) and the surrounding Innenstadt (inner town) district. via 500px http://ift.tt/1z1GSBh
