- 9.The Belgian Quarter — Cologne's coolest district — leafy squares ringed with independent boutiques, design shops, coffee bars and buzzing restaurants and cocktail spots. The place to browse, brunch and drink like a local, away from the Dom crowds.
- 10.A Rhine boat cruise — See the city from the water on a Rhine cruise — the cathedral, the bridges and the crane houses sliding by, with panorama or evening trips and longer runs up into the castle-lined Rhine Valley. A relaxing, classic way to take it in.
