It is important to be aware of cultural differences when visiting Frankfurt. It is considered impolite to be late for appointments or social engagements, so it is important to be punctual. It is also important to dress appropriately for the occasion, as dressing too casually or too formally can be seen as disrespectful. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local customs and etiquette when it comes to dining, as certain table manners may be seen as rude.
