Cologne Day 3.

Shops and places of worship.

We wanted to see some more of the amazing buildings that are in the city. There are lots of department stores ( all thriving, unlike at home) and the one in the main picture is just beautiful. https://www.peek-cloppenburg.de/de/stores/koeln-schildergasse


Next to it is an interesting church, with such a gorgeous interior and floating angel, dedicated to the victims of both wars. https://antonitercitykirche.de/

We then headed off to see the department store called “Globetrotter”. It’s an “outdoor store “ that sells every conceivable item you could imagine for an outdoor lifestyle. You can try out the kayaks or scuba diving gear in the huge pool- what a sight! https://www.globetrotter.de/filialen/koeln/

This afternoon we took the underground train to see the beautiful mosque on the outskirts of the city. Absolutely stunning outside and really lovely details inside- lots of glass and Islamic designs. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cologne_Central_Mosque
