May 2, 2025 - Moselle Valley Trier, Germany

This morning we sailed past the wonderful vineyards that the Moselle is famous for. In the afternoon, we arrived at Trier. Trier is Germany’s oldest city founded in 15 BC and  was once known as the capital of the Western Roman Empire, and as such, has been called the “Rome of the North” or “Second Rome” with its legacy of impressive Roman relics.

Trier's most famous sight is the 'Port Nigra' built by the Romans in 180 AD. 

We shopped at Hochstetter department store and bought, shoes, tops and pants. Most of them are made in Germany. 

Again, we reserved 'The Chef's Table' for dinner tonight. The food still tastes great.
