Overview

A masterpiece of modern engineering, Rheinufer Promenade was built in 1995 to help ease traffic congestion in the city centre. With pedestrian and cycle paths stretching 1.5km along the bank of the Rhine from Oberkasseler Bridge to the State Parliament, the street is the perfect place for a relaxing stroll. Rheinufer Promenade has also turned into a popular meeting place, lending the area a holiday-like feel on warm summer evenings. Numerous bars have outdoor terraces—the perfect place to sample an altbier (black beer) and watch the sun slowly set over the Rhine.
