MyZeil

A new fancy shopping center "MyZeil" opened February 26th in Frankfurt/Main. The funny thing is: we have a "new" shopping center in Wiesbaden (Luisenforum, opened Fall 2008) but I haven't yet seen all of it's parts. I just went to three different shops there (entrance area and basement).

But I went to Frankfurt only 4 days after the grand opening of "MyZeil" - I met with Chrisch to see Michal W. Smith who was in Frankfurt that night to promote his new DVD "A new Hallelujah". Before we went to that place, we decided to have a coffee in one of the MyZeil's coffee shops. There is one huge escalator we took, it goes straight from first floor up to level 4 (that way you have no chance to miss or "escape" the restaurant area). The way back down was not so comfortable - a lot of small escalators you had to take. And as it was the first week after the opening probably everyone wanted to go there. Have you ever been lined up for taking an escalator?


That's how I came to see all levels of the Frankfurt shopping center but only a very small part of the shopping center of my hometown.

This is a video of the opening of MyZeil center. I still don't know if there's a meaning of the big hole built of glass that goes through the center. It reminds me of a wormhole. Not the properly meaning of a wormhole. Just like the hole of a worm.
