Time for the unknown Boppard indeed is a place that offers enough ideas and attractions to enable the guest to spend a holiday free from care. However, anyone who casts a glance over its walls can expect to find the most delightful attractions in towns, on the river or in land. A really very simple journey through one of Germany's most beautiful regions awaits discovery. One route could be from cathedral to cathedral, that is, from Mainz to Cologne. Both cities are not only cities pulsing with life, but both have a history, which goes back some 2000 years. Those who want to 24 avoid the big city can find romantic little places and many interesting spots to see among the vineyards of Rheingau, Rhein-hessen and Nahe. On the other hand, the central mountainous area between Huns-rück and Taunus offers heavenly peace, wide vistas and primordial beauty among the blowing ears of corn in the fields, the quiet woods and yellow rape fields stretching to the horizon.
