Nicely done! Lived in Aachen for 10 yrs, have many friends there and miss it very much.

Take a guided tour through the cathedral-it’s a must have- it’s worth it absolutely ! I’m agnostic but assisted a Messe in the morning-great experience too !
5:54 I’m sure you meant Emperors, not Kings. The view at the cathedral is breathtaking from up there !
10:05 It’s not easy to get to the Ponttor but it’s worth it. The Ring street is annoying just in front of it…
The Printen I ate during one whole year even if I could have finished them straight away !
There’s much more to see.

I just had to change my travel plans leaving the city because they found a WWII bomb excavating next to the train tracks to Cologne…
