goes hiking on volcanic rocks. and once more we're off to the country's largest automobile museum. but our 1st stop is book, but i taught in burke county in the federal state of north rain with failure me bottle with the center of the textile industry, germany a working class city. if you're planning a city trip in germany, you probably think of munich, berlin, or hamburg, but, but i don't think that many people out there know about the city and to be honest, neither do i. so let's just discover a thought together. the, the city has something very special, a suspension railway it has

been the number one means with transport here for a 120 years. the construction of suspension re weight has to do with industrialization. the traffic increased fast at that time. in order to relieve the streets, people had to move in the air. a large part of the route followed the riverboat. only once, did someone take an involuntary bath here and that was on july 21st 1950. back then a little elephant was supposed to take the overhead train for an advertising campaign, but to feed the name of the elephant, didn't like that at all, and jump out of the train into the vocal river. fortunately, nothing happened to the elephant and it became very, very famous. and today there's even the monument this is crazy. so close to the houses and this is

really worth see. the turning maneuver at the full vehicle terminal. there are 20 stops. each one is different. i like this one best. the 1st thing us dawson looks like a small castle art nouveau. when it comes to architecture, but my thought is extremely diverse. there are so many cool places to discover old ones with tradition. but also some that are brought back to life with good ideas. b ought to, hustler is a city guide and has promised me insights into the history of a baton and great views. here we start the vizier dorm, a decommissioned gas boiler that is used inside as an exhibition space with precisely composed projections. there is great feeling of space in here.

one floor up, you'll find the sky walk. it was not until $930.00 that the individual industrial places along the flippa merged into one city and they named themselves after the river that connects them for baton. though, why did the textile industry choose to set up shop here all squished at young? is edith the gun, and as soon as i saw several pot being due to the water of the vip a river, and the preaching of the yon, which was already practiced here, back in the 16th century, on the textile industry, developed count that was a bleaching required sun and rain, the total was the half and place for that song playing duffy, this will, but i am for pathic viewport. i grew into one of the largest industrial sites in europe now and he has this so i and i let this is one of the last remaining places where textile so once produce an i at that they made ribbon. when you been down

here the straps lehman everything still as it was fun. waffa in the 1970s automation and competition from low wage countries lead to the decline of the textile industry. you can walk through history here and you can't even touch it ah, kind of spooky as if the workers had just gone home. all the machine stopped. ah, if the people of a thought wanted leave the city and see some nature, they can go to baggers lunch or burke county. it lies at the gates of the city, and it's just half an hour away. on weekends, not just the vo patella's, but also people from cologne. and this it off at for the hills and forest. of the

baggage is one. this region of north rhine westphalia offers a wide variety of recreational activities and in the middle of the country side, a steel colossus, the monks, and bridge. it spats the bobo river and his oregon and it is the highest railway bridge germany, 107 meters high. the crazy thing is you can climb up. i want to try to ah, one here. you copy a final security check up seats. good else. perfect. as we go, i will go in 15 minutes, a sand through the forest. mm. were not even at the bridge. and my hearts already beaten faster. ah. menu. oh yes,

once you hook on right up here where i'm standing, you'll only exit the securing system once you reach the m to decide it was actually peer to me that this would happen. my fear of heights kicks in. my mouth is dry. i'm starting to stutter. i'm not enjoying this at all. so the group is almost at the top. but sewland stays with me. i want you to go up to and the group is already taking pictures. when we're his under his toes, if he won't do and did you, you can look over here and i'll take a picture of you. but most of the city,

everything that has a fight on mine ah, the others are already on the way back at me. well, i'm done with it with i almost made it, but then i was just too afraid. anyway, i'm proud of myself. and i think having to break. yeah. i'll his to you gloria, orange, memorial, hollywood with what's that mean? just that you performed a glorious fate. went above and beyond and almost reached the top mackenzie milsap her beloved. yeah, the old dog i'll drink to that. can't. oh honestly, i'm glad to be down here again with design. it's joy to have many clients. one

isn't very, very surprised. how many people have contacted us and set they want to climb it all for me? and we promised our southlake if we sold a 1000 tickets between the press conference in the opening would fly to las vegas and celebrate the former. and then we sought more notice, but we sold a $7000.00 tickets. i thought we had to open up many more time slots. so people buying a voucher wouldn't have to wait until march 2025 to use it on monday. we said as well, lots of work ahead of us on good days. we can guide you 100 people across the bridge journia and gotten targets when we have our hands full and a really happy about that one of the program it's on the yes. mostly come from germany or also from brought a daughter. it's one of a kind in germany and europe to the gothic global lights comparable to sydney's hobble bridge for them. but for those whom sydney is too far away, there's boost and bridge bite of young woodson wicker. so this day to day, i will not forget in all my life. ah,

today i want to show you one of germany's western most regions, the eiffel it's impressive landscapes are the result of a fascinating past. and this is where you get the best view, the top of the eyeballs, highest mountain. ah, in the past, the eiffel was a rather poor region. today the low mountain range with its forests, lakes, and extinct full can it craters has become an attractive tourist region. mm. the small city of mancow, near the belgian border, is nicknamed the pearl of the eiffel. it's historic, old town draws visitors from all over the world. in july of 2021,

her rendez flooding devastated large parts of the eiffel. mancow was left pretty much unscathed. but still had trouble dealing with the fall out of the catastrophe . with, according to scientists, the flooding of 2021 can be largely attributed to human, made climate change. but already 700000 years ago, enormous natural events shaped the eiffel. this unusual landscape is the result of powerful volcanic eruptions. mm. i'd like to find out more about the exciting volcanic history of the eiffel. so i'm meeting up with an expert with advice. i feel a little around here called the maurice,

the eyes of the i. so how many of them are there funding? $360.00 volcanoes that we have in the region $77.00 have been shown to be mar volcanoes. stock of reason. nowadays, not all of them are filled with water. denise ma most are dried out or burger moreland or london, but the most recent ones, in particular, the ones that formed over the last 80000 years, including germany's most recent volcano, the old men, emma. 12 of those 77 mars, are crater lakes, aluminum r. m da funds and didn't on inst lumpkins, evenings it's ish, smooth, besides a normally deposit of or and by the way, the scientists agree that the volcanic area of the west eiffel cannot be described as extinct missed a luscious lucon good sized them. i know that was my next question, is it still feeling under our feet? motion if bordered, it is still bubbling away under our feet are kind there aren't any eruptions any more, but you can tell that it is bubbling away because of the rising carbon dioxide on

task. let's take a little more small, a closer look. ah, at the heart of the eiffel lies the small town of berlin, borne home to a real geyser. it's nicknamed global and shoots cold water into the air every 30 minutes. mm mm. quite remarkable. that 13000 years ago, this peaceful lake was the sight of the biggest volcanic eruption in central europe to date, a thick layer of volcanic ash and pumice, varied meadows, valleys and forest. mm. and sky, he income is a fissure on lake la, has the 14 years ago, he leased the lake from the neighboring benedictine medea laugh abbey,

and decided to continue the monks. centuries old fishing tradition. ah pencil while you're at it. do you mind explaining to me how it works? it looks very peculiar of us come. savannah for fema wasn't with the principal. it's a classic pelagic method as a net isn't attached to the leg bottom and the top line doesn't weigh anything below. there is a line with a lightweight that spans the whole thing, and it's a bit like a cut and swallow the fish swim inside and the mesh determines the size of fish we catch you with, with your muscle wet as a tear, as if hung this fish is that the small end of the spectrum? it weighs about 200 grams. hm. we catch up to 300 to 350. grab a little bit smaller. fish simply swim through. bigger ones can also get cold, but not as well. it's selective. fishing stick, keep official. i of us with assume it's even good. the volcano under the lake here

is not yet extinct. they're still visible discharges of carbon dioxide. they're called mo, fedex company lucas. so volcanism is still very visible here, isn't it? yeah, yeah, and he and that's why all the tories this come, you can even see them from the shaws, but there are lots of places where you can learn more for it. no, probably probably if them a fat is a 40 meters down v, i can see them on my echo sounding device. when i look for fish from a sort of work and doesn't look official quote, give me something resembling a christmas tree rising from the bottom. but you can't see that with a naked eye. i know what a sequence was always it on it. ah, not far from the lake lies medea nash abbey. the mediaeval monastery was found it a 1000 years ago and is arguably the most famous building of the eiffel ah,
