Hundreds of years of architectual development led us to the point where we turn down modern buildings and recreate medieval ones... I like this.

I've lived in 7 countries , and Frankfurt was the friendliest city I lived in. Vastly underrated. Your videos are great, thanks.

I lived in Germany for six years and grew to love it. I don't think you can really appreciate Germany unless you live and work there. If you are going for a vacation or short visit it doesn't give you the time to understand why life is so different than the United States. In Germany you can learn to relax and enjoy what Europe has to offer. Can't wait to go back again.

An unusual landscape in germans cities. Thanks for share it. I was there in 2009 and 2010. Grüße aus Chile. 😊🇨🇱🇩🇪

This is a fascinating discussion. But I don't know what to take from it. I've met Americans who love Germany, Americans who hate Germany, Germans who love America and Germans who hate America; as well as Americans who wish they lived in Germany and Americans who are glad they don't, and Germans who wish they lived in America and Germans are are glad they don't.

Thanks for the video. I lived in Frankfurt's Ostend from 1984 to 1995 and worked as graphic artist in ad agencies. From my window I had a direct view of the Grossmarkthalle. The Main was a 5 minute walk away and on Sunday I rode my bike along the Main to Hanau, across the bridge and returned via the other side. I liked Frankfurt's good connections for hashisch. I spent many evenings, listening to music and toking up.

Great video. Thanks. Myself, I fell in love with my hometown Frankfurt the first time I revisited it after I moved to Canada 3 years ago. It appears that you must walk away to be able to see the beauty of something.

@drewnetwork You didn't notice some of them were horribly shaky? Maybe I'm being too hard on myself, but this really needs to be re-edited in my opinion. Preview in my video editor brought my CPU to its knees, so I didn't notice until after I'd rendered it, which took 2 hours on the fourth attempt. Apart from that, I'm quite pleased with it.

Now we are in 2018.

Frankfurt is often being underrated for being ugly or just a cold business town. But actually it firstly has very beautiful old parts and second the connection between the old and the new world makes it especially interesting and worth living.

It's interesting to see how the city has changed in the last six years. There are three new skyscrapers and a part of the oldtown between Römer and the cathedrale was reconstructed and even some ugly buildings next to the opera house were demolished and old buildings were reconstructed at the same place. The surrounding looks much better now.

Possibly the best of your "Destination" videos. Great job! Interesting to watch and well composed shots.

I was in Frankfurt this summer and for me it was the best part of my visit to Germany. The thing that surprised me the most is that it is a city about the same size as mine that has shops selling almost anything you could want in addition to skyscrapers and a metro; the features I would usually associate to much larger cities.

Großes Lob an die Stadt Frankfurt.Das trotz relativ hoher Quote an ausländischen mitbürgern,man das so gut meistert.Natürlich vielen Dank an die Bürger,die sich so gut verhalten und sich gegenseitig respektieren,egal welcher Nationalität sie angehören.Ich bin beeindruckt von dem friedlichen miteinander.Ich wohne selbst 19 Jahre in Frankfurt.Meine Frau ist gebürtige Frankfurterin.

Great video. Would love to see you do other cities like Cologne :)

Thank you. This is very interesting and wonderfully presented.

What an absolutely brilliant video,thankyou

great documentary!

This was excellent! Superb editing and splicing.

Really good! I have been living and working in and around Frankfurt for over 11 years and learned some new stuff in the 11 mins watching your video. Excellent stuff
