A trip to Gotha 🇩🇪
#myhiddengems
Visiting Gotha in Germany was like stepping back in time! 🏰 This charming city in Thuringia is full of history and beautiful architecture. The highlight of my trip was definitely the Schloss Friedenstein, a stunning Baroque palace. The entrance fee was around €10, and it included access to the palace, museum, and the stunning Ekhof Theater, which is one of the oldest baroque theaters in the world. 🎭 Walking through the grand halls, admiring the art collections, and soaking in the history was an absolute treat.
I also spent time exploring the old town with its cobblestone streets, cozy cafes, and colorful buildings. The main market square was lively, and the views of the town hall were picturesque. 🏘️ For a bit of nature, I took a relaxing stroll through the Friedenstein Park, which is right next to the palace and perfect for a picnic or just enjoying the greenery. 🌳
Nearby, there’s the stunning Thuringian Forest for hiking enthusiasts, and Erfurt is just a short train ride away for even more exploration. 🚆 Gotha might not be as well-known as some other German cities, but its rich history, beautiful architecture, and relaxed vibe make it a hidden gem worth visiting. #trip #Gotha #Thuringia #BaroqueBeauty #HiddenGemGermany #SchlossFriedenstein
