'''Frankfurt''' is a major city in [[Hessen]], [[Germany]]. It is an [[air]], [[rail]] and road transport hub, so you will find many people travelling out of the city in many different directions.

If you prefer not to take public transport, then from the “Hauptbahnhof” central train station walk north for approximately 15 minutes. Look for the dark red Messeturm skyscraper (nickname “The Pencil”, which gives a clue to it's appearance) and walk towards it along the main road. From there, look for the roundabout.
=== North ([[Kassel]], [[Hannover]]) and South ([[Karlsruhe]], [[Strasbourg]], [[Freiburg im Breisgau|Freiburg]]) {{Autobahn|5}}===
Take tram No. 17 from Central Station till the last stop "Am Rebstockbad", takes you about 10 minutes. You can already see the motorway, which leads 300m later for both directions of the A5. When you arrive at the [[gas station]] that heads into Frankfurt there is a bridge 200 meter away. Cross the bridge to the other side of the motorway, at this gas station almost every car will go either north or south of the A5. The next gas station in the north is "Wetterau", which is usually quite a good spot for long rides. But this gas station also has lots of potential, some more experiences are needed though! Twice [[User:Wukk|Wukk]] found a ride after 5 minutes, one straight to [[Hamburg]], one to "Raststelle Wetterau".
* Take U-Bahn line U6 or U7 to “Leipziger Straße” to find a cheap selection of market stalls, restaurants, fast food, supermarkets, international callshops, and shops selling small but useful items like knives or umbrellas.
* Nearby (also U-Bahn line U6 or U7, and Straßenbahn line 16 or 17) is “Bockenheimer Warte”. Here is the university – ask students at the library (“Uni-Bibliothek”) to give you free internet access. The university cafés serve cheap, healthy food and are open to everyone – look young, confident and busy, and you won't have to show a pass to get a student discount.
*Take Bus 36 from "Konstablerwache" to Adlerflychtplatz. Just next to the Bus-Stop is the "Aroma" an israeli Falaffel Store. For 3.80 you will get the best Falaffel Sandwich in the world. Or at least in Frankfurt.
