SUGGESTED DAYTRIP:
Beside the aleppo hostel, you`ll find The German Mining Museum. It gives visitors
a rare insight into the underground world of tunnels and mine shafts. The 68 metre
high winding tower - which stands close to the City's public park - is the world`s most
importent mining museum.
For the evening you can choose between the best and famous german speaking stages the "Schauspielhaus Bochum" or "Starlight Express", which is the most successful
Musical in the world. After this you should go to the Bermuda triangle: several
dozen pubs, bars, resaurants, cafes, clubs; it is also located in the city center and another potential record holder.
Nearby is the Bochum city centre, with shops and malls.
