"Once part of the city’s defensive fortification, the “Promenade” is now a 4.5 k long “city-autobahn”, yet not for cars, but mainly for bikes and its kind defining downtown Münster these days. Flanked by trees, this is presumably the swiftest way to go around town. For those seeking the city's heartbeat, this is where you should search for it. If you’re not into cycling, you can opt for a short run or walk before or after ESSD meetings on the adjacent sidewalk to unearth the city's true essence. Personally, I use it for my daily commute, granting me moments to either gear up for the day ahead or unwind from the demands of work. There is just one thing you should always remember – riding the bike (or locally called “Leeze”) in Münster lets you believe in staying above the law – so look out for those who consider themselves the monarchs of the “Promenade""
