Frankfurt sight seeing

Euro: A strong currency?

I was out today for my groceries and was thinking to do some sight seeing myself and luckily came across a Frankfurt City Tour bus at the Hauptbahnhof (The Central Station). The hour long tour would cost 15 Euros but one had an option to get down anywhere, spend time in leisure and take the next bus, any other bus for that matter. This luxury would cost a mere 4 Euros more. Of all the sights I came across today, the scene of the Main river that cuts through the heart of the city was the best. I took the bus for a complete circle and then got down took one more, but this time, I got down at the bank of the Main river. A long walk took me some 30 odd minutes around the river and over the bridge. It was fascinated to be see a fleas market on the other bank. I guess this temporary market is set up every weekend and one can expect to see less expensive stuffs here. Many things here are "used" as well. After having a quiet bite at the fleas market, I located one of the city tour bus waiting at the signal, I just hopped in ( I had a day ticket you see).


Here are some of the pictures I could take:
