Parks
The banks of the river rhine in Beuel are very scenic, because the southern part of the promenade is in an almost natural condition. Sun bathing lawns, barbecue spots and small beaches make this an popular recreational area.

Buy
Some nice shops along and around Friedrich-Breuer-Straße where also the townhouse of Beuel is located.
