„Every „Jeck“ (carnival reveller) is different“ - Cologne is not only tolerant
during carnival. In the city on the Rhine they love the cathedral, the Kölsch (Cologne‘s
famous beer), the FC and the people themselves. Here, people take
it easy. Perhaps this is due to the more than 2000 year long history and experience
of the city.
