Sülz and Sülzburgstraße – it could not be more Cologne-style!
Lindenthal and Dürener Straße - Cologne's "Kö"!
Cologne's celebs lie at Melaten Cementery (Melatenfriedhof) and the sun bathers lie at Aachen Pond (Aachner Weiher) in summertime
Rudolf Square for the SECOND time! Over Hohenzollernring to Frisian Square (Friesenplatz). Cologne Marathon's heart! - a mass of people, a feeling like in Alpe d'Huez!
Multicultural life in Ehrenfeld: For some years omitted and now back again – Venloer Straße and the new mosque in sighting distance to the television tower
Nippes took a perennial time-out. But why that? Neusser Straße is there!
Rudolf Square for the THIRD time! And now with spectator motivation to the last kilometres!
Espaliers of people and shouting and cheering also at Neumarkt, the after-run location
