旅游忠告和警告 科隆
Cultura The distinctive flavour to the city of Cologne is often linked to the city's inhabitants, or Kölsche, who take an enormous amount of pride in their city. Cologne is a traditionally Ripuarian-speaking city, though this has mostly been replaced by German, which is now the main language of the city. English-speaking guides and information are available for many of the landmarks of the city. For tourists who speak German and wish to practice it, the citizens usually have a lot of patience with those trying to come to grips with the language. Cologne's citizens are very friendly and jovial people, welcoming tourists of all types and with all interests.
Climate The climate of northwestern Germany is changeable, with seasonal changes and day-to-day weather often comparable to that of the United Kingdom or Northern France. Travellers to Cologne can expect the hottest time of the year to be July (in July 2010 the temperatures were above 30 degrees for several days) , the coldest is January (temperature hovering around the freezing mark) and the month with the most precipitation is June.
Cuisine Cologne has a wide variety of restaurants, both German and otherwise, as a glance in the colored pages of the local telephone book will illustrate.
Drink Typical Cologne beer is called "Kölsch" and served in bars around town in small glasses, called "Stangen", of 0. 2l. That way the beer is always fresh and cold. Don't worry, waiters will be fast to bring you a new one once your old one is (almost) finished. In more traditional bars and especially the breweries, the waiter (called "Köbes" in local language) will even hand you a fresh Kölsch without being asked, so it is easy to lose track of how much you drank. He will put a pencil line on your coaster for each beer that you drank, this will be the basis for your bill, so do not lose it! To stop the beer from coming, leave your glass almost half full until you have asked for the bill or put your coaster on top of your empty glass.

从Wikipedia约 科隆

科隆 (德语: Köln,kœln ;1919年前德语也拼写为Cöln),是德國人口第四多的城市,是北威州最大的城市,亦是德國內陸最重要的港口之一,莱茵地区的经济文化和历史中心。它已有2000多年的历史,是德国最古老的城市之一。中世纪科隆已经成为一个重要的教会中心和艺术知识中心。科隆在二战期间遭到严重破坏。今天它以其文化和建筑遗产以及许多重要的国际性活动而闻名。

1850年科隆的人口超过十万,在德国算作大城市。加上其第二住址在科隆的人其居民数今天超过一百万,但是实际上市内的居民只有在1975年和1976年真正超过了百万,此后始终稍低于一百万。

科隆也有天主教大主教。哥特式教堂科隆大教堂1996年被指定为世界文化遗产;它是科隆的主要标志,非官方象征。

43%居民信奉罗马天主教, 18%信奉新教,39%信奉其他宗教。直到二战从东德涌来的大量难民,罗马天主教徒一直占科隆居民的大多数。2005年,科隆见证最大的天主教青年盛会。第二十届世界青年日从8月15日星期一到8月21日星期日在科隆举办。

科隆位于欧洲一条重要的东西交通要道与莱茵河的交叉口上。莱茵河是欧洲南北交通的一条重要水道。科隆今天是德国铁路交通最繁忙的枢纽。它的内河港口是欧洲最重要的内河港口之一。

它还是一个文化中心,尤其是创造艺术的一个中心。它的狂欢节非常有名,此外它还是许多协会的驻地。在20世纪的后半叶科隆从一个以重工业为主的城市演变为一个以服务业为主的工业。今天科隆是一个媒体中心,市内还建造了许多新的办公楼。科隆的保险业也有跨地区性的意义。

科隆还以当地的“科隆啤酒”(Kölsch)闻名,Kölsch也是科隆方言,一句笑话说Kölsch是世界上唯一能喝的语言。科隆也是科隆香水或古龙水的发源地。

科隆是德国最大的大学城之一,市内共有85, 183名入册的大学生,占市民总数的8. 5%。科隆的外国人数量也很高,2004年底市内有175, 515名外国籍居民,占市民总数的17. 2%,尤其土耳其人社群是德国最大的之一。科隆因此有很长的多文化熔炉的传统。科隆人素来以开放、自由和宽容著称。

柏林和科隆是两个以接受同性恋文化闻名的城市。科隆在这方面历史悠长,很长时间以来科隆是德国同性恋运动的重要阵地。即使有些事情柏林都有些收敛,科隆却以此为荣,并以德国最大的同性恋群体(著名的例如克里斯多佛大街日)自豪。每年七月间,同性恋们都要举行一次盛大的游行(每年吸引超过1百万游客),这里已经成为多个不同同性恋组织(LGBT)和他们活动的基地。
