2. Cologne
I think that my favourite city is Cologne (Köln,
Germany) because it is a very important city
where you can do a lot of different things and
learn a lot of culture.
I have never been to Cologne, but I would like to
visit it.
3. Situation of Cologne
Cologne is situated in the West of Germany, in
the State of North Rhine-Westphalia.
It is Germany's fourth-largest city, after Berlin,
Hamburg, and Munich.
4. Cologne
Cologne is located on both sides of the Rhine
River, which can be sailed on boat.
The most important building in Cologne is its
cathedral, which is the seat of the Catholic
Archbishop of Cologne.
You can also have a nice walk on the banks of
the river and over the old part of the town.
