What is there to do in Aachen, Germany?


I'm living in Aachen, Germany, for the next few months and I want to make sure I hit all of the main tourist attractions! I've seen the Dom and the city, but is there anything else - maybe outside of the city?

Aachen is gorgeous, check out the Rathaus (town hall) and the hot wells. Gut Melaten near the University Clinic is very pretty, plus there is a herbal garde just like the one Charlemagne ordered built there in his day.

The regio is also worth exploring. Go to the Eifel, to Cologne, to Belgium, the Netherlands and that one spot where the three countries touch whose name I can't remember right now. Eat some Printen, they are a local delicacy. But most of all, enjoy your stay.
