In the shadow of the church lies medieval Mainz, where life goes on in the narrow, narrow streets, in the numerous little shops, boutiques and cafés surrounding the wonderful Kirschgarten with its romantic half-timbered houses. In contrast to the lively old town, the panorama of Mainz as seen from the Rhine side seems rather restrained, quiet and even a little strict.
