Bonn, the former capital of Germany, is located close to Cologne in the West of Germany. Looking back on a history of more than 2000 years, Bonn is one of the oldest cities in Germany.
Bonn is located at the Rhine which is one of Germany's most beautiful rivers and invites visitors with its famous Rheinaue wetlands to enjoy barbeque and to take a walk through its fascinating landscape.
Bonn is also close to other European countries such as Italy, Spain, France and UK which you can easily reach by train, airplane or car.
With many traditional buildings, impressive churches, historic marketplaces and ancient castles, Bonn's past left a deep imprint on its shape.
Nevertheless, everything within Bonn and its surrounding is easy to reach within a few minutes by walking or public transportation(which is for free for university students in Bonn).
Apart from the city's historic shape Bonn also features many hot spots for sightseeing and experiencing arts and tradition.

Of course you can also enjoy one of the bars, clubs and restaurants of Bonn.
