After spending a night in Brussels, we embarked on a bus ride to Germany the next morning.
Cologne, about 4 hours bus ride from Brussels. We did not spent long time in Germany. Visited one place only and then we proceed to the next and last country in our intinerary.
Our stop in Germany was the largest gothic-style cathedral in Europe. The Cologne Cathedral, constructed in 1248 but along the way its construction was stopped for many years. However work restated in the 19th century and it has survived many bombs during the WW2. It remained standing on otherwise completely flattened city.
Cologne Cathedral, was one of the most visited landmarks in Germany. We did not go into the dark mysterious-looking cathedral although it was free entrance, due to the queue and time constraint. We just enjoyed the sight outside under the strong gush of wind.
Instead we spent time went to the train station which was nearby to get some nice German sausages, walked further to taste German pork knuckle and shopping for bags in Longchamp (right at the side of the cathedral, and next to LV shop). It started to rain when we left Germany for Netherlands.
