Fun travelling or on your business trip to Frankfurt or the Rhine Main Area? Here're some places you can enter the night!
The Rhine-Main-Area with Frankfurt at its center is an area of roughly 100 km or 60 miles in diameter (so better prepare to have some transportation to get anywhere) and about 4 mio. inhabitants. It consists of some bigger cities like Frankfurt, Wiesbaden, Mainz etc. with a lot of smaller towns and villages thrown in.
To search dark spots in the web some complexity is added by the fact, that it covers parts of 3 to 4 states ("Bundesländer"): Hessen, Rhineland-Palatinate, Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg.
