主打特色： 美食

In the beer garden of Brauerei Päffgen, off the central Friesenplatz, visitors sit under large chestnut trees, while traditional waiters, or Köbes, keep up the supply of Kölsch, Cologne’s light beer. The brewery, founded in 1883, conveniently covers the garden with a glass roof during winter.

Outdoor activities aren’t restricted to the summer. Hot and spicy mulled wine is served from wooden huts at Cologne’s Christmas Market, located at the bottom of the cathedral.
