Bonn overview

Bonn is pretty much a university town. If you wonder where most students go during their free time, then head to the famous Hofgarten Park – popular for ball games, sunbathing, napping and studying. Despite being a town packed with young people, Bonn still retained its laid back atmosphere. Most of the town’s sights, including museums, can be reached on foot. Indeed, the entire inner part of Bonn is a pedestrian zone. The town is also known as the birthplace of the classical composer Beethoven. Long time dead, the musician is Bonn’s most well-known superstar! So don’t be surprised to hear his ever-famous compositions played just about everywhere. Added to that, many souvenir shops sell T-shirts, mugs and even stuffed toys with Beethoven on it and there is no excuse to leave Bonn without a piece of him.
