🇩🇪 Frankfurt Shopping Spree Diary
Our final holiday stop brought us to Frankfurt, Germany! The attractions here are quite concentrated around Römerberg Square, so after spending half a day sightseeing, we dove straight into shopping mode. 🏕️ Outdoor Gear Heaven: Globe Trotter This 5-floor megastore is an outdoor enthusiast's paradise! 1F: Features Patagonia and Fjällräven apparel, plus outdoor essentials like knives and water bottles (was thrilled to find Yeti tumblers here!) 2F: Camping gear galore - tents, backpacks and more 3F: Premium brands like Arc'teryx, Mammut and The North Face (scored two Arc'teryx softshells for my parents - ¥2400 in China vs ¥1900 after tax refund!) 4F: Footwear department with Hoka, Salomon and On (though selection was limited - didn't spot Bondi models) 5F: Now transformed into cycling equipment after previously being an outlet section 💎 Luxury Lane: Goethestraße Adjacent to Zeil shopping street, this is Frankfurt's luxury row. LV and Cartier had their usual queues, but other boutiques were pleasantly crowd-free. Snagged LV sunglasses for ¥3400 after tax refund (¥800 cheaper than China!) ☕ Coffee Break: Wacker's Kaffee The aroma of fresh coffee hits you before you even enter! Loved watching locals enjoying their brew in the sunshine outside. Inside was bustling with customers buying beans and ground coffee - the wall displays of coffee beans make perfect Instagram shots. #Frankfurt #Germany #ShoppingHaul #TravelDiaries #TaxFreeShopping
