Tips for your trip to Frankfurt am Main

About the location

The best time to take photos in Frankfurt is usually from Monday to Thursday in the evening during the winter months, because that's the time when most of the offices in the skyscrapers of the city are still lightened during sunset. If you shoot in the summer, there are often no more people working at 10 pm when the sun goes down.

Traveling

There are a lot of parking garages in the center of the city if you are coming by car. The train station is also very central, so everything should be within walking distance.
