Meet the Most Beautiful Mainz on the Rhine River

Mainz is the capital and largest city of the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate, located on the left bank of the Rhine River, opposite the entrance of the Main River into the Rhine River. Travel Guide - Mainz Cathedral: One of the most magnificent churches in Germany, built between 975 and 1009 AD, with Romanesque architecture, incorporating elements such as Renaissance sculptures, pipe organs, baptismal pools, altarpieces, frescoes, etc. The archbishop's memorial tombstone and the church museum house many precious works of art. - Gutenberg Museum: Located on the edge of Liebfrauenplatz in the center of Mainz, it has a restored printing press that can print a three-color Bible, showing the invention and development of movable type printing, as well as the life and related artifacts of Gutenberg. - St. Stephen's Church: The nine magnificent stained glass windows created by Russian Jewish artist Marc Chagall in his twilight years give the church a mysterious feel and a medieval texture, and are a symbol of reconciliation between Judaism and Christianity. - Mainz State Museum: Founded in 1803, it was created on the basis of 36 paintings donated by Napoleon, and now has a large collection of treasures from the Stone Age to the modern era, covering many fields such as painting, sculpture, crafts, and archaeological artifacts. - Augustinian Church: With a carefully crafted organ stand and exquisite ceiling frescoes by Johann Baptist Enderle, the interior is beautifully decorated and the architectural style is unique, making it one of the finest examples of Baroque architecture. In addition, you can take a walk along the Rhine River to enjoy the beautiful sunset and feel the romantic atmosphere. Stroll through the old town of Mainz, where the narrow, winding alleys and half-timbered buildings of the Middle Ages are preserved, and you can feel the strong historical and cultural atmosphere.
