Frankfurt is the center of one of the most productive and dynamic regions in Europe. As continental Europe's largest financial center, home of the European Central Bank and to the headquarters of many companies, the international importance of Frankfurt continues to grow.

But it is also a city of intellect, of apple wine, of small-town friendliness, green spaces and 180 nationalities.

Yet despite Frankfurt's diversity it is still easy to keep an overview of the metropolis. The distances one needs to cover to visit colleagues or friends in the city are comparatively short, while its excellent infrastructure enables visitors and residents alike to reach even remote destinations quickly and conveniently.
