    Bicyclers as well as pedestrians can enjoy this part of this Rhine's side. And E-Rollers as well. Walking topless here is also accepted as you see on the last picture.

  • 5/5 Rebecca R. 6 months ago on Google • 78 reviews
    Do yourself a favour and have a wander along the Rhine, and soak in the view. The variety of architecture and shapes/colours on the other side is fascinating, and of course it's free!

  • 5/5 Erik 9 months ago on Google • 60 reviews
    Great place to take some pictures of the Bridge and Dom. Take a relaxed stroll on the river bank and just soak up the atmosphere. One of my favourite places to visit.

  • 5/5 Marco K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great thing to experience the great view of the other side of the river when the weather is nice. As the saying goes, the only good thing from the right side of the Rhine is the view of the left side, which is particularly beautiful from here? (Original) Super Sache, bei schönem Wetter die geile Aussicht auf die andere Reheinseite zu erleben. Wie sagt man so schön, das einzig gute von der rechten Rheinseite ist die Aussicht auf die linke, von hier aus besonders schön?

  • 5/5 Mark L. 3 years ago on Google
    Very conducive for meeting with friends and family especially in the evening to watch the river rhine, bridge and Cologne Cathedral in a spectacle of the golden rays from the sun. It's also refreshing to walk with the fresh breeze. I also recommend it as a good photo scene.

  • 5/5 C Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome place with lots of people enjoying a beautiful sunset, Cologne's silhouette, dancing, exercising and just enjoying life.

  • 5/5 macedonboy 4 years ago on Google
    The Rheinboulevard is a lovely promenade on the east bank of the River Rhine. There's a fantastic array of shops, restaurants and cafes along the promenade for about 200 metres around the Hohenzollern Bridge. The boulevard is well paved for walking and cycling and a great place to a stroll while the summer lasts. Most of the main attraction in Cologne are on the other side of the Rhine, so walking along Rheinboulevard gives a nice perspective on these.

  • 5/5 Sheila A. 3 years ago on Google
    A great place to enjoy the view of the Cologne cathedral.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful view over the Rhine to the cathedral, Groß St Martin and the old Gothic town hall. A tour from the cathedral upstream through the old town along the Rhine, over the Deutzer bridge, then over the Rhine boulevard and back over the Hohenzollern bridge with millions of attached love locks to the cathedral is particularly beautiful (Original) Wunderschöner Blick über den Rhein auf den Dom, Groß St Martin und das alte gotische Rathaus. Besonders schön ist ein Rundgang vom Dom flussaufwärts durch die Altstadt am Rhein entlang, über die Deutzer Brücke, dann über den Rheinboulevard und zurück über die Hohenzollernbrücke mit Millionen von angehängten Liebesschlössern wieder bis zum Dom
