Question Solo travel to Frankfurt – Tips and Cool Architecture?

Hi everyone!

I’m planning a solo trip to Frankfurt this summer and will be staying for about a week or two. I’d love any tips, advice, or things I should know before going...

Also, I study architecture, so I’m really interested in cool buildings and designs. If you know any hidden spots or interesting places to check out, I’d love to hear about them!

I had one of the best meals of my life at the Bornheimer Ratskeller. Under 30 euros, too. If you drink and can tolerate indoor smoking, Bergerstrasse's not a bad pub crawl. Wash & Work Waschsalon kinda amazed me with how much pride somebody can evidently take in a laundromat. Wish I had more to say; I was just there briefly before a flight.

If you’d like a day trip from there, Heidelberg is pretty cool! I’ve been twice and once it was during the summer and I love it. Just really nice to walk around and chill, and the castle is cool to visit

My biggest mistake in frankfurt was staying near the main train station.. It wasn't safe at night.. But then moved near the zail.. Much better area

I stumbled upon a local eatery. Community table, amazing food. The place is called - Zum Eichkatzerl. There are a few more around the block as well.
