    The biggest merit of this documentary is the highly condensed information it and yet, it is its biggets flaw. I ended up dizzy and confused , too much to take in within 50 min. The usual style of your documentaries, which I praise, is the "slow pace" and relaxing emotional experience the viewer get from them! Thanks a lot, anyway.

    The word 'beautiful' is not enough to describe those villages, cities, castles etc.
  • This did my heart a world of good !❤😎👏🏾 I'm in Jamaica missing my husband there and seeing these beautiful landmarks was just comforting and wonderful

    I have been blessed to tour it. I truly felt like i was in a fairytale. Born in a South African rural village, i dreamt i would have such an experience

    Hello from Bucharest, Romania - a huge underrated city of Europe:)

    I was fortunate to travel by train along the Rhein once in '91 and again in '98! It's majestic! If time and money permitted, a train journey where you got on and off for exploring the towns and villages along the way would be a trip to Germany by itself!

    Such an amazing compilation of different parts of the Rhine. I happen to live in Rotterdam where the river ends :)

    I would highly recommend reading 'The Rhine' by Ben Coates. It is an interesting book talking about his experiences and information about the regions of the Rhine. Apparently residents were encouraged to purchase home and business insurance in case flooding occurs, alongside an automated messaging service to warn citizens in advance.

    You left out Neuss, one of the oldest German cities opposite to Düsseldorf, and Duisburg, the third biggest city at the Rhine with the biggest inland port in Europe, Ruhrort, where the Ruhr flows into the Rhine at Rheinorange. Before the Rhine reaches the Netherlands, there is the Lower Rhine region around Wesel.
