Luxury Rhine River cruises charming natural beauty
Since the Treaty of Vienna in 1815, the length of the Rhine was determined (1,230 km) and adopted as an international waterway, and the river was also one of the leading transport routes in Europe.
The Rhine River has been an example of the great rivers of the political and cultural unification of Europe since the Rhine Valley was incorporated into the Roman Empire. The river was also recorded in literature, especially in Germany, as in the famous epic (Nibelungenlied).
The Rhine River has great importance as a waterway that passes between 5 European countries (Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, Germany, France, Netherlands), for its charming natural beauty, and for its historical importance in Europe and Germany, where many German and French historical castles are located on the banks of the river.
For 400 years, it was the main border between the Romans and the Germanic tribes, and there are several German and French cities on its west banks.
For this reason, there were many wars and conflicts between Germany and France. Every country wanted to control the sources of the river, and this conflict remained until the end of the second world war.

The Upper Rhine is of great importance as it plays a major role in controlling the floods that may occur in the Middle and Lower Rhine .
The Middle Rhine
-The Middle Rhine Between Bingen and Bonn is located in Germany across the Rhine Strait, which is about 130 meters deep. Divided into two parts: The Upper Central Rhine, which flows from Bingen towards Koblenz, runs for about 593 km. The Lower Central Rhine, which flows from Koblenz to Bonn, goes to a distance of 655 km.
The Lower Rhine River
-The Lower Rhine River Sage flows into the Rhine in Bonn, and there this great river turns into the Lower Rhine, where it falls from a distance of 50 meters to a distance of 12 meters, and the river penetrates the North Rhine and Westphalian regions.Then the Rhine passes through the Ruhr region and the city of Duisburg, which is one of the most important cities in Germany and which has the largest river port in Europe, and the river also passes through several other large cities such as Cologne and Düsseldorf.In this region, several rivers flow into the Rhine, such as the Ruhr and the Leibe.
