This
region covers the central southern part of Germany and although
its capital is Wiesbaden,
an important spa centre, the most important city is Frankfurt,
a world-class economic metropolis. The headquarters for the
European Central Bank and the German Federal Bank are found
in this city. Its exhibition site is one of the most important
in the whole of Europe and its airport has the heaviest volume
of trade goods traffic on the European continent, and the
second heaviest passenger flow. Most of the interesting places
for sightseeing are found near an area once protected by walls
and which is now an enclosed semicircle of parks and gardens.
This is also where Römerberg , the old quarter of
the city, lies.Sprachcaffe
has one of its language teaching schools in Frankfurt.
Labelled "a tangled and picturesque series of landscapes and
mountains", Hesse has volcanic regions, vineyards, wild areas
as well as cultivated regions. Some of its most interesting
cities besides Frankfurt and Wiesbaden, include Fulda -an
Episcopal area with distinct baroque style architecture-,
Marburg, Giessen, Bergstrasse and Rheingau, the two latter
being important winemaking centres of the region.
