The panorama of Mainz seen from the Rhine side seems rather restrained. It is dominated by two epochs: Modernism with the Town Hall, the Hilton Hotel and the Congress Centre in the Rheingoldhalle, and the Baroque or Renaissance with the Neues Zeughaus (New Arsenal), the Deutschordenshaus and the Palace of the Princes Electors. 


In the afternoon, we will arrive in Rüdesheim, one of the most visited towns in the country.
