Hohe Strasse & Schildergasse
Hohe Strasse runs from Wallrafplatz near Cologne Cathedral to Schildergasse, the most popular shopping street and also one of the most-visited shopping streets in Germany. Here you can buy clothes, shoes and electronic equipment. Numerous souvenir shops offer Cologne gifts and mementos. One highlight of the shopping street is the Weltstadthaus, which resembles a huge glass whale. Inside the "whale" is the Peek & Cloppenburg clothing store. The cafés and restaurants on the Wallrafplatz and the Domplatte invite shoppers to rest and linger.
