...Cologne is a beautiful city. It's main tourist attraction is the grand and extravagant Cologne cathedral, which is situated in the city centre. Their are tours available and includes a great deal of interesting information and history of the cathedral. It is also possible to ascend the hundreds of stairs to the top of the cathedral, where there is a picturesque view of the city.
Surrounding the cathedral is both the new and old market, which are excellent places for shopping.
Approximately 30 minutes leisurely walk from the cathedral along the river is a chocolate museum! They have a chocolate fountain, with free samples of chocolate. There is also a gift shop where chocolates of all different kinds, shapes and sizes can be found to suit everyone's tastes!...

Advantages: many shops, antique buildings Disadvantages: ----
...I flew to Cologne the last weekend. I arrived at Cologne Airport and got a bus to the city of Cologne.
It's worth seeing!!! There are many shops, you can buy CDs, clothes, everything. And it's very chaep, too. Much cheaper than the shops in London. Then I went to Cologne's chocolade museum. You can learn about chocolade production and you can taste many kinds of chocolade - very delicious. After that I went to the Roman museum. You can see very many antique buildings and reamins of the Roman time. If you are in Cologne first visit the Roman museum. It's superb. The next day i went to a musical. Sorry, but I have forgotten its name. It's was cool, too. At night I flew home. What a cool weekend!!!
I don't know anything about the nightlife.
I just filled in something....

...Having relatives who live in Germany, I visit at least once a year and my favourite time of the year is Christmas.
There is something about arriving in a city like Cologne or Koln, as it is referred to in German, and visiting their Christmas Markets. They have about eight markets in operation between the end of November up until Christmas day. They are an absolute delight and a must for anyone visiting Cologne, all brimming full of continental delights from hand crafted Christmas decorations and toys to enticing chocolate truffles.
There are a number of stalls selling Gluwein, which is the local equivalent of Hot Mulled Wine, the perfect antidote to the cold that seems to creep into every part of your body.
As others have noted the Cathedral is the main attraction and very beautiful, but if you have a visual impairment be aware...

For the second day of my short, last-minute trip to Dublin, I really needed to be in the centre of the city as I had a lot of stuff to do and so it made sense to complete my quest to stay in 3 Hilton hotels during December and January and... more
My partner and I decided to go for a city break to Amsterdam – somewhere we had fancied for a while and it provided me a chance to fly for the first time. After much shopping around, we booked (via Thompson online) for a 2 night stay at the 5 start... more
