The townhall of Krefeld, the city I live in. It's in the western part of

Germany located on the Rhine river about 30 miles north of Cologne and

has a population of 230.000.

Btw, that square isn't always that clean (never really). :D

Bridge over Rhine river

Officially opened in 1936 by...hrm...Rudolf Hess. :P

Old swing bridge at Rhine harbour, 105 years old and

my fav building in the whole city. I love it.

The Kaiser was scheduled to be present at the opening ceremony

but couldn't make it. He sent two torpedo boats instead... :confused:

Burg (castle) Linn, about 900 years old. Probably the biggest

attraction in the whole area and it's just 1/2 mile away from my house.

Shawna, I'd like to show it to you, esp. the dungeon

which is really creepy. :D

I think that should be everyone's goal!

Yeah,Unfortunately my hometown is the Bronx,NY

not a pretty place and I was in my thirties before I returned and learned I grew up in the projects.The good thing about it is that my neighborhood had every country in the world and every religion :cool: So, If I find a good pic of the Bronx, I'll post it

And I agree, everyone should see the whole world :thumbsup:

:puppyeyes:

:grin: That picture was the one my eyes were drawn to right off. I'd love to see it! Now the trick is getting over there...

I just did a google search for my hometown, and what a disappointment! An entire page of nothing but pictures of Blink 182 (it's where they're from), apartments for rent, the fires of 2007, and a lot of groups of people who evidently live there, too. So I've got nuthin'. :mad:
