There are lots of clichés about travelling in autumn: that it's low season, the weather's still mild, cities look nicer... But the truth is that it's an ideal time of year to take a break from your routine. Besides, there's a bank holiday weekend at the beginning of November, which means you can enjoy these wonderful places even more. Let us guide you with a few recommendations on places that are particularly charming at this time of year.

Frankfurt has many parks and gardens, but one of the most important is the 20-hectare Palmengarten. This garden is home to a large number of plant species, including 300 different species of palm tree in a spectacular old metro station. Several species of exotic bird also live here.

This well looked after and organised botanical garden is an excellent choice for a gentle stroll if you want some peace and quiet in your day while enjoying the tropical vegetation and all sorts of plants and flowers, ranging from carnivorous plants to cacti in a number of individually themed garden areas.

A wide variety of cultural activities and exhibitions are also held throughout the year in the Palmengarten.
