Shopping in Cologne

Cologne is a real maze of shopping streets designed only for pedestrians. Once in this maze, you will certainly buy something, and then you want to get out of there quickly.

In Cologne, you will find shops for every taste and budget - from huge department stores to tiny private boutiques and eccentric musical instrument stores. There are shops of the most famous fashion designers, both German and foreign.

You can go to an inexpensive store and buy the most fashionable clothes, or you can enter a brightly lit perfumery paradise, drunk with seductive aromas. Shopping streets are just a short walk away. Hoeshtrasse and Schiel Dergassewhere there is everything that only the soul desires. Fashionable clothes and shoes can be bought at Ehrenstrasse, and custom-made jewelery - on Friesenstrasse.

Shoes from "Birkenstock"

In principle, prices in Germany are slightly lower than, for example, in the UK. The exception is luxury cosmetics. "Dr hauschka", much more affordable at home. A wonderful and very useful souvenir for an active tourist is a pair of shoes from"Birkenstock", which can be bought at a branded store on Braitestrasse.

Shopping in Cologne

Fortunately, almost all souvenir shops are focused on Cathedral Square (Domplatz). So if you want to take home a model of the cathedral, beautiful handmade Christmas decorations or a great nutcracker, you won’t have to go far. On Altermarkt Square There is a small shop "Kölsch", where they sell everything related to the favorite drink of Cologne. Here you will find thin tall glasses (Stangen) from which beer is drunk in Cologne.

Cologne cologne - "4711"

And of course, the best souvenir from Cologne will be a bottle of aroma bearing the name of the city - Kölnisch Wasser, that is, a cologne. The most famous brand of Cologne cologne - "4711". The French assigned this number to the inventor's house of a wonderful aroma. This cologne is poured into beautiful bottles with a turquoise label. House No. 4711 was restored to its original location, on the corner of Glocken-Gass. Here today they sell the famous fragrance. This house recalls the long past. If you don’t recognize the flavor of this cologne, then consider that you were not in Cologne.

How do I save on hotels?

Everything is very simple - look not only at the booking. I prefer the search engine RoomGuru. He is looking for discounts at the same time on Booking and on 70 other booking sites.
