[Germany] Oberammergau, where the once-every-10-year passion play and murals are adorable

In the Bavarian region of southern Germany, Oberammergau is a small village surrounded by the Alps. It is a cute village with exterior walls decorated with frescoes. The murals, or wall art in modern terms, depict fairy tales familiar in Japan such as "Hansel and Gretel" and "Little Red Riding Hood," and are very enjoyable even if you don't understand the language. The nearest train station and bus terminal are about a 10-minute walk away, so it is easy to access. By the way, speaking of Oberammergau, it is famous for the "Passion play," a play on the Passion of Christ that is performed by all the villagers once every 10 years. It was postponed for two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and will be held in 2022 for the first time in 12 years. It seems that many visitors from all over the world flocked to the small village. #Overseas travel record #Germany #Amazing view #Wall art

#fallingforfall A Short stop to Oberammergau On our way to visit some famous castles in Germany, my husband and I enjoyed our short visit to the beautiful and quaint town of Oberammergau. This place, which is surrounded by the mountains of Bavarian Alps that sets a charming foliage, is said to be best known for its wood carvings as well as its elaborately painted buildings. But more than that, Oberammergau is famous for its centuries old tradition of staging Passion plays - its 5 hr production stages the life, crucifixion and death of Jesus - every 10 years.  We hope to be back and catch on of these performances someday 😊🍂🍁. #wanderingme #ijustwander
