25) More great city marathons in Germany
Germany, of course, has other great city marathons besides Berlin and Hamburg. There is, for example, the Cologne Marathon, which is a "must have" in terms of its atmosphere. The Dresden Marathon (pictured) scores points for its interesting route through the old town. The Frankfurt Marathon is the second important international marathon in Germany after Berlin. An eye-catcher in Frankfurt is the finish on the red carpet in the exhibition hall.
