Old Town
翱翱翔的大鲨鱼The old town of Heidelberg was not destroyed on a large scale during World War II. The old feeling is still visible. In the Holy Roman Empire, the imperial princes built many towering castles and flavorful cities. Heidelberg has the opportunity to see it.
Heidelberg Palace
LLaGaThe Heidelberg Palace is a must see when visiting Heidelberg. To get there 🥾: you can take a cablecar from the old town. However, I would recommend to skip the queue and just enjoy the around 15min walk up. You will pass by beautiful old villas on the way. What to do 🏰: In my opinion the outside appearance of the castle is more beautiful than the inside. So it’s not worth to spend the entrance fee for a ticket inside. The garden around the castle is free to enter and has great views.
Old Heidelberg University (Alte Universitat)
翱翱翔的大鲨鱼In addition to the castle on the mountain, the old town of Heidelberg is also worth a visit. It is considered a university town with characteristic buildings with a bookish atmosphere, river banks, old bridges, and antique beauty. It feels great to stay here.

Student Jail (Studentenkarzer)
__ce***36I went over to see it. I want tickets, 3 euros a person, which is a bit unworthy. It is a place where students are closed. But it is not managed very tightly, students will be very free inside, and they will be proud of being closed.
Hauptstraße
Mmiss banzaiI love this pedestrian main street of Heidelberg which goes through the old town. It is filled with shops, breweries, Coffeeshop. It can be very busy since it is very touristic. Totally loved it
Philosophenweg
Ssuifeng2019At the end of the old bridge, after walking across a road, you will find the entrance to the Philosopher's Trail. This is a two-kilometer-long walking trail that has been loved by professors and scholars throughout history for its pleasant scenery, quietness, and leisure, making it a great place for solitary thinking. It is also a good place to overlook the old town of Heidelberg from across the river.
Hotel Zum Ritter
Ssuifeng2019From the alley next to the Holy Spirit Cathedral, you can see the oldest building in Gothenburg, the Knights of St. George. It is more than 400 years old and built in the Renaissance. It is now a hotel and can be eaten.
