The cable car in Cologne (Kölner Seilbahn) is the most picturesque way to cross the Rhine. If you are not afraid of heights, then be sure to ride the cable car. The station from where the trailers depart is opposite the zoo. From here you get straight to Reinpark.

The cable car offers a beautiful view of the whole of Cologne. You will see how the towers of the cathedral proudly rise above the whole city. Those who do not like heights can cross the river over the bridge and get into the Reinpark without soaring into the sky.

Palermo airport and how to get to the city

A common myth: all Sicilians are mafioso, or at least do not impede the criminal activities of clans. This is far from the case. Otherwise, Palermo airport would not have been named in honor of two irreconcilable fighters against the mafia, who died tragically at her hands - judges Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino. Now their names on the plaque at the entrance to the terminal serve as a reminder to the whole world that justice exists and is inevitable.
