Aachen's rich history dates back to the 1st century AD, when Roman soldiers enjoyed its hot springs. Its famous attractions include the magnificent Aachen Cathedral, the oldest World Heritage Site in Northern Europe. Aachen has plenty of restaurants reflecting the city's diversity and is a popular tourist destination. Its thriving economy is based mainly on high-tech enterprises, such as rail and automobile technology, with its high speed trains connecting with Brussels and Paris.

On InterNations I did not only meet interesting people but I also found a flat near Bochum and settled in quickly. A great platform.
