The rooms are traditionally decorated, featuring an Alpine-style interior that creates a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The hotel's prime location is one of its standout features, offering comfortable rooms and a restaurant, albeit at a slightly higher price point. It provides a friendly ambiance and high standards of service.

Neuschwanstein Castle (Neuschwanstein Castle) is located near Füssen in Bavaria, Germany, and is a fairy-tale dream landmark. Arrive in the small town of Füssen and feel the tranquility and medieval charm at the foot of the Alps. You need to make an appointment in advance to visit Neuschwanstein Castle.

Neuschwanstein Castle is very different from other castles I have visited in Europe. It is built from a fairy tale dream with medieval designs and lots and lots of money. The castle does not allow us to take photos inside but when we went inside we could see the chandeliers are made with solid brass and precious gems. The paintings are all with medieval myths. This Castle is also called the “swan castle” because there are lots of swan elements in the castle such as the swan sculpture, the swan pattern on the drapery, swans on the moldings, and swans on the paintings and the custom-made furniture. This Castle was fascinating and absolutely gorgeous and amazing! #历史古迹 #世界遗产 #historicallandmarks #neuschwanstein #germany #Fussel #castleviews #fairytale #castle Getting There - 2 hours driving from Stuggart Germany Attractions - Neuschwanstein Castle, Hohenschwangau Castle Hotels - Ameron Neuschwanstein Alpsee Resort & Spa Food & Restaurants - The Muller Shopping - Souvenir shops

After queuing for Neuschwanstein Castle tickets for almost 1.30 hours, we were able to successfully buy an Audio guide ticket, which was also in Thai. However, since the ticket was for the 2 pm session, we had to find something to do to kill time. The architecture here is like walking around in a fairy tale. - The Alpseelake lake, which is not far from the ticket booth, has flocks of ducks and swans swimming in the lake for tourists to take pictures of. - Next is Hohenschiwangau Castle, which was built during the reign of King Maximillian II of Bavaria. To get to the castle, you have to walk up the hill, which takes about 20-30 minutes. - Marienbruke Bridge, which is an important spot for taking pictures of Neuschwanstein Castles, but unfortunately, this bridge was closed for repairs on the day I went. #Travelwithtrip2024 #SecretLocation #BeautifulPhotoLocation #BeautifulPhotoPlace

Looking for a perfect holiday in Europe during this year end festive season, I would recommend to visit the town of Schwangau in Germany. The Ameron Neuschwanstein Resort and spa is located right at the age of the lake Alpsee giving you panoramic views of not only the lake but also the surrounding mountains. This hotel is also right beside a few attractions like a historical musuem which is less than a 5min walk away, and also a few historical landmark like the Hohenschwangau Castle located on top of a hill. Also the town of Schwangau is just a 5-10mins walk away, and especially in this cold weather you need not worrying about sweating and its a relatively pleasant walk too #celebratewithtrip #germany #winter #yearend #alpsee #lakeview #schwangau #europe

One of the most beautiful and alluring castles in Germany. Highly recommended to visit it during your trip to Fussen and especially to Neuschwanstein Castle. This castle is also lovely although the main highlight is still the Neuschwanstein Castle. This was where King Ludwig 2 spent his childhood. We learnt a little more about his parents and his brother from the castle tour which lasted about 50 mins. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

Neuschwanstein Castle, also known as Hohenschwangau Castle, Hohenschwangau Castle or Hohenschwangau Castle, is a castle in the village of Hohenschwangau in Schwangau, Bavaria, Germany. It faces the Neuschwanstein Castle and is adjacent to Fussen. Compared to the dreamy shape of Neuschwanstein, the appearance of Hohenschwangau can only be said to be a simple mini. But like Neuschwanstein, we turned around around it because of the time, and found that it was different from every angle. Coupled with the blue sky, I feel that such a small castle also has its own style. Although there is a charge for the visit to Gaussberg, its own garden is free, in addition to the view of Neuschwanstein Castle, the Alpine Avenue in the scenic area, and the remote Alp Lake. Saying goodbye to the exquisite small pattern like Rothenburg, the perspective in front of the eyes is suddenly bright, and even the nose is full of the magnificent mountains. Gaustian Castle is led by a tour guide, each of whom sends an audio guide, and each time a tour guide will play the voice introduction of the area. Although the swan castle has no glamour and dreams like the Neuschwanstein Castle, the collection in the castle is more abundant than the Neuschwanstein Castle. There are 14 rooms in the castle and a large number of rich collections open to visitors. Every piece of furniture is an original used in the past, very rich in life. From there, you can also see the influence of Wagner's opera "Roy Green" on Ludwig II's childhood, and the deep friendship between the two. The museum also has pianos and correspondences that were played by the two people. . After the death of Ludwig's father, Ludwig's main change to the Hohenschwangau was to paint some small stars on the ceiling of his bedroom and let it shine through hidden oil lamps. It was this romantic sentiment that allowed him to build the same romantic Neuschwanstein Castle. I remembered a sharp statement about the evaluation of the two swan castles: Neuschwanstein outside the strong and dry, the high swan castle Jinyu inside. . . [Other tips] 1) Neuschwanstein Castle is far from Gothenburg Castle, and it takes more than half an hour to walk purely. If you have a rest meal, it is recommended to leave the interval between the two castles. The official will usually arrange a 2 hour interval 2)

The hidden sights on the edge of Neuschwanstein Castle, the sunset of the large harvest area of Lake Forggen Forggensee (Forggensee) is a reservoir on the Lech River in Bavaria, Germany, near the town of Fussen. Lake Forggen covers an area of 15.2 square kilometers and is the fifth largest lake in Bavaria. Two-thirds of its area is located in Schwangau. Foregen Lake is currently used for water storage and power generation during the wet season. It will become a dry land after all the water is released in the winter, because it can be completed when the snow in the Alps near the spring begins to melt. Water, but not because of the winter water retention ice, and the melting of snow at the same time to form a flood. Cycling around the lake is also a very popular sport and travel style in the area. The road to Lake Forggen is a typical country road. There are local houses on both sides of the road. Occasionally there are people who run the dog, but they can still be described as small people. The lawn with the same ground as the football field, and the Alpine dwellings in the "Sissi" movie, a larger back garden than a family, and unopened flowers, we see a big faint The poetic life of the city. The characteristics of the Fergen Lake are that the underwater is the submerged ancient Roman military road. When the reservoir is released in winter, the avenue is revealed. There are cruise ships on the lake to enjoy the Alps. Unfortunately, the speed of walking is limited, and we encountered a super beautiful sunset on the way to the lake. When it comes to the real lake, there is only the sunset after the sun sets, but it is beautiful. After the sun sets, the lake is quiet or quiet, and the pink-purple sunset glows the entire lake like a strong oil painting. This is the first lake in this trip, we are deeply attracted by the beauty in front of us, until the twilight is unwilling to leave.

It is located across the hill from Neuschwanstein Castle and is adjacent to the city of Fussen. Gossau Castle is a gem of German Romanticism.

The romantic style in Goshen Castle has had a major impact on the character of King Ludwig II. He is said to be very introverted and will not see anyone even when dining. There are 14 rooms in the castle and a large number of rich collections are open for visitors. Unfortunately, you can't take pictures, but it is also a great way to provide Chinese headphones.
