Frankfurt is the first stop for most visitors to Europe and the most cosmopolitan city in Germany. Although Germany is not famous for its food, it will never be ill-treated by the stomach of the foodies. 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.

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.
