Grab a pint and some traditional Irish fare at Fiddler's Irish Pub. It is just a minute's walk from Rex cinema, making it the perfect warm-up spot before the evening chill sets in.
16:14
Walk 50 minutes east to Villa Hammerschmidt. This former residence of the West German President offers a quiet, elevated vantage point. By 15:59, the golden light will begin to bathe the Rhine valley, creating a perfect backdrop for the sunset at 16:54.

Return to Rex cinema. After the walk, use the time before your movie to check the lobby or simply rest. The arthouse cinema in Endenich is a cozy place to settle in for the evening.
