I lived almost 15 years in the Frankfurt suburbs & met my wife there too so it can’t be that bad but Frankfurt itself just doesn’t belong on the bucket list of places to visit in one’s lifetime. It is well known for its financial centre & skyline but quite honestly if you were ever in the States then you would laugh when you see the skyline. Frankfurt is a super transit city with an airport that serves as the European hub for flights. World acclaimed is the Book Trade Fair as is the car trade fair IAA (International Automobile Ausstellung) but from a photographers point of view Frankfurt has little to offer in my opinion.

“For a small open economy that trades mostly with the euro zone it makes absolute sense to be part of the currency union. Our currency has already pegged to the euro since 2002. We don’t have an independent monetary policy. We are regulated by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt, but we are not able to reap all the profits. Our businesses want to save the transaction costs.”
