A Pair of Schloss

DSC00422Next to arguably one of the most famous castles in the world, Neuschwanstein (also referred to as the “Disney’s Castle”) is the original castle, Hohenschwangau.

King Ludwig II of Bavaria lived in Hohenschwangau most of his life. And until we went to see Neuschwanstein, I didn’t even know it existed. It’s a shame too because I think this castle is far more beautiful. It was at least lived in…Neuschwanstein was only inhabited for a brief time before King Ludwig’s mysterious death. Yet, Neuschwanstein is the famous one thanks to Walt.

This is one of my favorite pics that I took of places in Germany. Most of my real favorites are of my loved ones. I am not going to share those here on the blog though.

This is a pic of a hallway in the "Disney Castle" that people seem to like. Right after I snapped it, they reminded us that pictures were forbidden. Oops.







A view fit for a King. This is the view out the bedroom window of King Ludwig I in "the other" castle.
