Frankfurt is a vibrant financial hub with surprising charm—explore the historic Altstadt district with its timber-framed buildings, visit world-class museums along the Main riverbank, and indulge in traditional Apfelwein (apple wine) at local Sachsenhausen taverns. The city's blend of modern architecture and centuries-old heritage makes it an underrated gateway to discovering central Europe.

Pack layers and comfortable walking shoes; the one-stop routing means you'll want to stay limber for transitions between flights.
