Tourism is also a large industry, as one cruise can cost up to $2,368 per person excluding food, drinks, special activities(like canoeing), and entertainment (concerts, shows). Therefore, the Rhine plays a very important role, contributing to the German, Swiss, French and Netherlands economy.

I gives me a spiritual, intellectual and emotional distinction from others and I am proud of it' -M.F  moonzajer
This is a quote that truly displays and defines how important culture and history is in our lives. For centuries the Rhine river has played an important part in giving the surrounding areas a culture to be proud of. It has done this by having a powerful influence on writers, artists and composers. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who was born on August 28 1749, is an example of a German poet who was heavily influenced by the Rhine river. Therefore the Rhine river is culturally important

By using the Rhine as a method of transport, it not only facilitates trading but social interaction between France, Switzerland, Germany and The Nederlands.  The Rhine is important in the present, but is extremely significant and played a major role in world war II. It played a major role because it was crossed by the Germans, lead by Adolf Hitler, to conquer the French. Therefore, the Rhine was significant in the past, is significant in the present and will continue to be significant in the future.]]> 2016-09-12 07:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123031785 kfowler11 https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123040249 2016-09-12 08:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123040249 kfowler11 https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123384047 2016-09-13 10:40:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123384047 kfowler11 https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123642184 2016-09-14 00:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kfowler11/Rhine_KateFOWLER58/wish/123642184
