Why are German cities so depressing? (country, place, people, bank)

[yowps3]

Why are German cities so incredibly depressing? Not only are they depressing they're also very dirty and most parts of the German cities are run down and have more graffiti alone then world combined..

So what gives..?

I went to Berlin, Frankfurt & Munich

I regret the trip and it was a massive waste of money..

I highly recommend people who want to go to Germany to actually consider going some place else.. Unless you have a facination with gloomy, depressing, dirty and rude cities..

I could of just waited a bit and would of went to Tokyo Japan and Okinawa islands and then Hawaii.. But stupididley choose Germany!!!

You sure you were in Germany ?

I thought German cities were renowned for beng clean and efficient. Aren't Berlin and Hamburg amongst the new capitals of European bohemian cool, whilst Frankfurt is a major business centre and cities such as Munich usually do very well in terms of liveability.

Yeah that's exactly what I thought, but seriously.. That is simply incorrect and far off I would say..

Just search on YouTube or google.. Go google images and type in 'Berlin streets'
That will give you exact idea of how Germany is.. So bland bitter..

That is absolutely not true.. Especially not Berlin.. Munich is the cleanest one, but not by much..

Berlin was by far the dirtiest, place was full of graffiti, litter etc.. Public transport was completely washed up with graffiti and that kinda stuff..

Frankfurt was also gritty, all it had was the downtown area and that's it.. Was a pretty underwhelming downtown by intl standards, nothing nice.. Below average skyscrapers, and nothing going on in the streets..

Mehhh Big citys are big citys all are dirty and depressing in some ways/parts. Berlin- Vibrent, happening city not much to look at. Frankfurt Banks n stuff not nomaly a tourist destination. Munchen probably the nicest German big city I never found it dirty or depressing. Get around the country and have a look.

Plenty of depressing citys everywhere.

If you were a car nut, Germany would be paradise, no joke. I'm not sure of your expectations though.

Yeh true, every big city has its ups and downs..

But out of all the German cities, it was really hard to even try and have some type of positive outlook..

Not to to be offensive or personal but the German people in Germany don't help either, people in Germany are also rude, arrogant & generally cold people..

Customer service is especially rubbish in Germany..

The only good aspect of Germany were the taxis, they drive pretty fast..
