Here are a few photographs from a sunny afternoon in Frankfurt. Known for being a financial metropolis, home to the European Central Bank and only city in Germany with a skyline – sort of.<\/p>\n

But spring is here (finally!) and a sunny day is the best reason to hit up the Main river banks. Right now, the plane trees are still bare, their gnarly branches reaching towards the sky.<\/p>\n

A local favorite, get on the other side of the river and enjoy sprawled out grass and Meral Imbiss<\/strong>, a doner stand on a boat. How cool! The top deck is transformed into a Turkish restaurant, with sailor memorabilia and oriental glass lamps share the decor space. But the park benches and grass around the boat extend the restaurant into its environment.<\/p>\n

Fitting for serving doner on a boat, they serve fish doner amongst other (even vegan) doner and d\u00fcr\u00fcms.<\/p>\n

Hunger sated, onwards to Richard Meier<\/em>‘s Museum Angewandte Kunst<\/strong>, a bright space typical for Meier’s architecture (see this post<\/a> for a look at the Getty).<\/p>\n

The amazing architecture of the building is just as stunning as the artwork displayed. Architecture is a form of applied art, after all. The spring sun really brings out the play of light and shadow.<\/p>\n
