Cologne is a world-class art galleries, great shopping, romantic Christmas markets, cheerful and cheerful townspeople, great beer and vibrant nightlife.

The history of the city began more than 2000 years ago. Cologne was founded by the Romans, and traces of their presence are still felt on the streets and in the museums of the city. The narrow, cobbled streets of the Old Town remember a lot. Almost all the churches and residential buildings of Cologne were destroyed during the bombing during the Second World War. It is very touching to see the few surviving original buildings surrounded by those that have been restored already today.

Art and culture play an important role in the life of Cologne. There are many galleries in the city where world-class works are exhibited. It is hard to beat the collections of famous local artists. Arriving for a few days, you only touch the active cultural life of Cologne with its many theaters, concert halls and museums. But this is also for the best - you will always have a reason to return.

In summer, Cologne cafes resemble the atmosphere of the Mediterranean. The streets are full of people, at each table they drink coffee or enjoy incredible sizes of ice cream. The city comes alive in the evenings when local beer Kölsch literally pouring in. In Cologne, you will find traditional pubs, trendy bars and night clubs. Night life does not subside even for a day - whether it be a working day or a day off.

Friendly residents of Cologne love to have fun. Hundreds of thousands of tourists gather on a colorful One-Time Monday and on the Christopher Street parade. The festivals of the Cologne Lights fireworks are no less exciting. And in the days of the festival's music festival Ringfest, concerts take place right on the streets.

This cheerful and open city knows how to have fun, so if you decide to go to Cologne, you will not have to regret it.

Berlin State Opera

We must pay tribute to the German technical genius at the Berlin Opera. There are few such “moving” and creative decorations in any theater. It seems that you are not watching a performance, but something very lively and moving. Change of scenery captures no less than the action itself. Actors now and then “go out” now on the ramp, then from the balcony.
