Let’s take time to discover it. Frankfurt has its own congenial way of life, which Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Frankfurt’s most famous son, summed up so well: “Here I am human, here I can be myself.”

Frankfurt is a city of trade fair, a financial centre, a transportation hub, a major European metropolis, but also a city of intellect, of apple wine, of small-town friendliness, green spaces and 180 nationalities.

Yet despite Frankfurt’s diversity it is still easy to keep an overview of the metropolis. The distances one needs to cover to visit colleagues or friends in the city are comparatively short, while its excellent infrastructure enables visitors and residents alike to reach even remote destinations quickly and conveniently.
Frankfurt is a city you have just got to get to know!

Getting round in Frankfurt and the Rhine-Main area is easy and convenient, thanks to a modern, efficient and well-run public transportation system.
You can use streetcars (‘trams’), buses, underground and surface rapid transit trains. The fastest way of traveling within the city of Frankfurt is the “U-Bahn”, the underground train. There are several lines covering a large part of the city, particularly the central, northern and eastern areas.
The S-Bahn or Schnellbahn (fast-train) services many of the districts not covered by the U-Bahn. It also serves many outlying areas, including the Taunus mountains and other cities within the region such as Wiesbaden, Mainz, Offenbach, Hanau and Darmstadt. The local bus system completes the public transport network with frequent stops ensuring that you are delivered close to you final destination.
