Frankfurt am Main

Frankfurt am Main, I think this town requires no description. Everybody should have heard at least once about the Frankfurt financials center, or maybe about the skyscrapers that comprise the Mainhattan area or about the Deutsche Boerse Group.

We visited Frankfurt on a sunny day of the end of October 2012 and luckily we had the chance to see it in its rare coloured autumn clothes.
