Timeline
15:39
Grab a slice of pizza and a drink at Spaghetti & Stars. It is open late, so you can take your time enjoying the food before heading out.
16:09
Walk to the EKO-Haus. This house of Japanese culture sits quietly on the left bank. You can step into the garden and feel the calm of the space before the crowds arrive. The garden is styled like a traditional Japanese garden, and you are welcome to step in during daytime without a guide.
16:54
Head up the Rheinturm. The 240-meter-high Rhine Tower offers a 360-degree view from the restaurant at 172 meters. This is the moment to watch the sun set toward the SW, casting the final golden light over the river and the city.
17:54
End your evening with a hearty buffet meal at Sattgrün. Located near the Rhine Tower, it is open until 22:00, giving you plenty of time to relax after the view.
Local tip
The restaurant at the top of the Rheinturm is overpriced, but the view is worth the trip. For a more affordable meal before or after, consider the options in the nearby Medienhafen or stick to the EKO-Haus vicinity for dinner.
