Frankfurt Tourist Attractions: Picture of the cruise down the Main RiverFrankfurt is a visually striking city and it is for this reason that many of its best tourist attractions are based around places of architectural and aesthetic interest. Guided tours of the city give visitors the chance to see its many fascinating sights and learn some compelling facts about Frankfurt's past.

However, if you've got kids, then a trip to the Frankfurt Zoo is probably more up their street, where a range of animal attractions can be found housed in landscaped enclosures. The main tourist attractions within Frankfurt are shown below.
