After a good night rest in a hotel in Heidelberg, Germany, we made our way to Cologne, Germany's fourth largest city to visit the Cologne Cathedral and we had our lunch around there as well.
It was unfortunately raining in Cologne when we arrived there, and it was very windy and very cold! Nevertheless, I still braved the strong wind and the chilly weather and managed to take a full picture of the Cologne Cathedral. A full picture I said, why? Because the cathedral is so tall, you cannot take the cathedral from top to toe! It is around 157m tall, also a World Heritage Site, one of the best-known architectural monuments in Germany, and also one of the world's largest churches and the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe.

A Roman Catholic Gothic church. |
|
I took 3 pictures of the Cologne Cathedral and stitched/combined them together to get the full picture of the cathedral! |
|
It was so cold and windy but we still had to take some pictures right! :D |
|
These are beer mugs! Sorry for the blur -ness, took it in a shop and wasn't sure if I was allowed to do so. |
|
This picture I had to go the opposite street to take, and you still can't see the ground. |
After finally having our lunch in a Chinese restaurant, we made our way to Amsterdam, Holland. Holland is pretty much a free country, where drug use and prostitution is allowed, but their crime rate is very low. Naturally, the country is famous for their red light district. Just like they have one in Shinjuku, Japan.
|
So, we went to the red light district. |
|
Do not misunderstand the word pub/cafe in the red light district and think they sell beer/drinks, but the truth is that they are selling recreational drugs/pills/shisha, so yeah, you can basically see youngsters inside there getting high. |
|
Basically, at the red light district, you would be able to see rows and rows of glass windows where women wearing only bikinis/undergarments can be seen standing inside. So, you get the picture right. |
|
And all of these shops are everywhere, and it's nothing compared to what you see in the I Love You shop in Malaysia. LOL. I even saw a shop with different types/designs of condoms, it was so funny! |
Next day:
Holland & Belgium Day 4

Thank you Ching-Ching! Hehe. You can just use Photoshop, automatically will generate the picture for you. :D just try to take the same settings for each shot so it will seem more balanced. :D
