Trier, the oldest city in Germany. The first colonial site built by ancient Rome in Germany.
The Tributary of the Rhine River, on the banks of the Moselle River, looks fifty kilometers west of Luxembourg.
In addition, Marx's birthplace and former residence are here.
Trier's home attraction, the Great Black Gate of Rome, the main gate of the year, two thousand years of history.
During the Roman Empire, the Germanic peoples north of the Alps were barbarians and difficult to conquer. Since Caesar's conquest of Gaul (and later France), a series of forts were built along the Rhine, under the jurisdiction of the Viceroy of Gaulle in the west and to the east by the Germanic savages themselves. Places like Trier and Cologne are similar to each other, both are such imperial fortresses.

Churches in Germany fall into two broad categories. When Christianity first came, it was a Romanesque church held by the architect of the Roman Empire, mostly yellow-brown, with a large pedestal, represented by mainz Cathedral and Speyer Cathedral. The other category is the Gothic style that prevailed in the Middle Ages, mainly built to a higher place, higher and higher, and the representative work is the Cologne Cathedral.

After seeing ancient Rome, it is time to visit Marx's former residence. The former residence is on an ordinary street in the old city, and now it is a museum, there are not many tourists, and the visual Chinese accounts for half.
The second floor of the former residence, renovated. Old Master Ma was also a gentleman of a solid family.
A wall at the entrance of the museum depicts the founders and promoters of communism
The former residence museum is not large, the main part is a small three-storey building, and there is a small courtyard at the back.

Return to the same road, the big black city gate is far away
Trier is not big, small half a day can be finished, the overall feeling is still good.
