Cologne and Rhine River
Amsterdam– Cologne– Rhine Cruise– Frankfurt July 18th, Day 5
We started off the next morning with a visit to a diamond-polishing factory. Next, we headed off into Germany, stopping at Cologne to see its gothic Cathedral. In 1167 the bones of the three Wisemen, or Magi, were relocated here from Milan. The Cathedral began construction later in 1261. It was constructed in phases and was completed in 1880. We traveled via Bonn to Boppard for our Rhine cruise past castles and vineyards to St. Goar. Finally, on to our hotel, the Dorint Novotel Am Main Taunus, for dinner and overnight stay in Frankfurt.
