    This is also the famous square in Frankfurt. Surrounding the Roman square, you can enjoy the fountain of the goddess of justice, classical architecture, sculptures and multiple coffee shops and restaurants around the square. Here you can see the exquisite beauty and design layout of the ancient German Frankfurt architecture. The square is wide, clean and touristy. It is not the aroma of coffee that floats, which makes people feel refreshed.

    The Frankfurt Iron Bridge is a famous attraction and a famous pedestrian bridge located in Frankfurt, Germany. It spans the Main River and connects the old town of Frankfurt with the Sachsenhausen district. The Iron Bridge was built in 1868 and completed in 1869. Historically, the Iron Bridge was the first suspension bridge in Europe and was originally built with funds raised by a private association. It witnessed the industrialization process of Frankfurt and experienced important historical events including destruction during World War II and reconstruction in 1946. From the bridge, you can enjoy Frankfurt's iconic buildings, such as the Main Tower and the Commerzbank Building. It is an excellent place to view the "Manhattan-style" skyline. The bridge is full of love locks, which are love locks left by lovers, symbolizing the eternity of love, so it is also called the "Love Bridge".
