Buga – an architectural experience
Koblenz has witnessed over 2000 years of history which is still evident
today in many of the town’s historic buildings. The BUGA is presenting
these in an entirely new light and forging aesthetic links with the
modern age, one example being the spectacular aerial cable car
which spans a distance of 850 metres and offers breathtaking views
of the UNESCO World Heritage Site “Upper Middle Rhine Valley”.
