Cologne Picture: The old town

This is the area you'll want to enjoy on warm summer evenings. Lots of green areas and playgrounds for the kids, a spectacular view of the bridges on the Rhine river, and more restaurants and cafes than you can shake a stick at.

And we're only about a ten minute walk from where we started at the train station. Cologne is compact.
