When we lived in Frankfurt, we lived near the Berger Strasse, as well as outside of town and we…read morefound that the Berger Strasse area (Bornheim) is hands down one of the best areas to live in. We loved going to the large market, you can grab all forms of public transportation, find a nice restaurant or cafe to have a seat outside on a nice day or go to one of the many parks within walking distance. It's also not far (walking or by train) from Konstablerwache, which is another thriving area. There is parking in the parking garage for Saturn and on-street parking. There is also a parking lot behind Rewe.

When visiting pretty much any city or town in Europe, one of the main draws is the main square. Or…read moreone of several town squares. Römerberg is just that. It's a great place to start your exploration of Frankfurt. You'll be surrounded by beautiful architecture. There will be a statue for you to check out. It's a touristy area, sure (so I wouldn't have a meal in the area), but it's also a place locals go to congregate and hang out. With Germany getting bombed heavily during WWII, Römerberg still gives you the feeling of old school Germany. And while I wasn't there in December, if you are, you'll be able to check out the famous Christmas markets Germans are known for. Spend a little time here, walk around, and take it all in.

I had the incredible opportunity to visit Römerberg during the Christmas markets on December 1st…read moreand the plaza looked stunning. It was beautifully lit and super bright. I got to try so much food from multiple vendors. And even got to ride the carousel. And the center piece of the night is clearly the Christmas tree! Absolutely stunning! This is my second time visiting Römerberg. Outside of Christmas time this place is a beautiful plaza rich with history and it has plenty of restaurants and shops around. Definitely a must see while in Frankfurt

We have pretty much all heard of the love lock bridge in Paris. Who knew that Frankfurt had its own…read moreversion?! I learned about Eiserner Steg, a.k.a Iron Bridge a.k.a "Love Lock Bridge" while doing some research on the city prior to my trip. It's one of the top attractions in Frankfurt listed on TripAdvisor. Located close to the heart of Frankfurt, here are some tips for checking out the bridge. If you're visiting at a peak hour, expect for there to be a crowd. You'll have people walking around checking out all of the love locks, taking pictures, or walking by. As always, when in a crowded area, be aware of your belongings. Bring your own lock inscribed with the initials of you and your significant other or write your initials on the lock. This is going to be a lot more affordable than purchasing a lock last minute (there are typically vendors selling locks in the area). Part of the fun is finding a spot for your lock, among the endless sea of love locks there. It's a cool experience, and a romantic one at that. While not as famous as the bridge in Paris, and while I haven't been, I would venture to say it's a similar experience. There's even another love lock bridge in Cologne.

Really cool bridge pedestrians can walk across for free. Cool pictures overlooking the buildings in…read morethe back and the river on the sides. People have locked some locks on the bridge
