Hohenschwangau Travel Blogs

Today was the last day my mum would be on my turf. So I decided instead of sitting around at home or spending even more money on clothes neither of us needed, I would take her sight seeing. Well, I was a little naughty, since I was the one that wanted to see Castle Neuschwanstein for ages, and I ju…

Walter pumped twenty Euros worth of diesel into the BMW and we headed toward the Alps. Cross-country highways back in America steered primarily north-south or east-west but in Germany, except for the autobahns, they spiraled off in all directions from traffic circles in each and every town or v…

Got a cheap flight from Jersey to Cologne and decided to travel via the Romantic Road to Fussen, and ultimately to Munich. Hopped back on the train to Cologne and returned to the states. Blog is only photos for now, text may come later, may not.

We set our alarm for 7:25am as our goal was to have showers and eat and be on the road by 8:30.  But the shower was a bit of an ordeal for me.  You’d think that after 37 years, I’d have that part of my daily routine down.  But it’s usually the most unexpected things that can th…

The world famous castle, built by King Ludwig of Bavaria, who was obsessed with the world of fairy tales and Richard Wagner. Died under mysterious circumstances and construction on the castle was never completed. (Constructed 1869-1892)

Esta pequenia ciudad posee dos castillos muy famosos Schloss Neuschwanstein y el schloss Hohenschwangau. Estos dos castillos pertenecieron al rey bavaro Ludwig II, un locazo como yo que amaba lo epico, fantastico y que le gustaba enormente Wagner (a quien recibia en su castillo). Este muchacho…

Summer trip from Slovakia trough Benelux to Croatia, Italy and back to home :-)

Three sisters, traveling across the world to Sweden, Denmark and Germany. Sweden to see friends, Denmark to find our heritage and our island. And Germany for the heck of it.

Hohenschwangau is one of the most majestic places on earth in my opinion. Not one, put two castles! The familial Hohenschwangau Castle, radiating its yellow hue atop an emerald hilltop. Familial, because it was the home to King Maximilian II, King Ludwig's father. And across the valley, towering ov…

 I didn't want to be rushed like in 1989 and miss both castles there. This way we could take our time and enjoy the place. when we got to Hohenschwangau, both castles were shrouded in mist. You couldn't see either one at all! We decided on Hohenschwangau Castle first. We made the climb up the …

Drove down the Romantic road on our way to Neuschwanstein. If you ever come to Germany for a visit you have to come to this place. It is situated on the German/Austrian border, and it is the castle that Walt Disney based Cinderella's castle. It was built over a 17 year period (1869-1886) but was ne…
