Stayed on the last night in Cologne. When I visited Beethoven’s house in Bonn in the afternoon, I missed the beautiful figure overlooking Cologne Cathedral from the sky. I rushed back from Bonn to the Cologne exhibition/Deutz station and walked quickly to the station next to the station. At the Triangle Building, I finally enjoyed the Cologne Cathedral bathed in the afterglow of the sunset on the roof of the building, marking the perfect end to this free tour of Cologne.
