Speaking of the cuisine of Frankfurt, I believe that the first reaction of many people is the Frankfurt sausage. In fact, in addition to sausages and pigs, the local specialties include schnitzel, apple wine (Apfelwein), green sauce and cheese (Handkäse mit Musik). Don't be misled by the name "Music with cheese", think it is a cheese that will play music. In fact, the music here refers to the seasonings of cheese mixed with onions, vinegar and other ingredients. It is said that this wonderful mixture will produce some kind of gas after the lower belly, so that your body begins to sing.

If you buy the wrong or sit wrong, you will be fined. The light rail lines are much more complicated than the subway, and they need to be more careful when looking at the traffic map, but they all pass through the train stations (Hauptbahnhof), Hauptwache and Konstablerwache. S-Bahn's operating hours are generally from 4:00 to 1:00 am the next day, but the interval between each shuttle is longer than the U-Bahn. It is necessary to pay attention to the fact that when the vehicle is getting on and off, the button on the door needs to be pressed, and the door will open.

The driver's car has navigation. If you are going to a place that is not particularly easy to find, you can tell them the house number or zip code.
