Eurotrip day 4 - Fussen , Neuschwanstein Castle , Hohenschwangau castle

And here we are to the 4 day of our amazing experience called EURO TRIP!
I don`t have enough words to explain the feelings when I remember about this trip and even now when I am writing  it makes me a little sad because I want sooo bad to do it one more time , the exact same .

But enough about that let`s start the adventures of day four!  ;) 


We woke up about 8 in the morning and hit the road for Fussen.



Here are some pictures of the road , I know there isn`t anything special but it is beautiful , isn`t it?
















And this is Neuschwanstein castle , the castle that inspired Walt Disney castle pretty majestic when you see it


The name of the castle translated literaly means "High Swan Country Palace"


The enterence ! 



The court 










 This is the second castle in the area named  Hohenschwangau castle











In the area of Fussen there are 3 castles, but the most popular one is Neuschwanstein of course.
Important tip! Be sure to have enough time planned here since there are a lot of people and the line for tickets is hundreds of people. We tried to take tickets for inside the castle and we were waiting about 40 min only to understand that the first possible time that we can go inside is after two hours , which we couldn`t to because we had other sightseeing planned for the day. The inside of the castles is only available in tour groups.




There are sooo manu souvenirs shops where you can find almost everything – puzzles, paintings, glasses, everything for your collection of trip souvenirs!  We bought many magnets , of course !









As in Salzburg there are two ways to reach the main castles. By food – of course, or with busses. 


I lied , there is one more way - horse-drawn carriages from the town that can take you to the castle.










Here  is a link to the castle web site where you can learn about the history of the castle and some useful information.


Our plan was to spent only an hour or two to the castle but of course we couldn`t resist to the magnificent castles just take a picture and leave so for Meersburg we didn`t have enough time and we just took some photos and run to catch the hotel check-in time. And to be more specific our hotel was in Grafenhausen.  Ahhh what a lovely place. The hotel was called Pension Kramer and was very very nice.           


And this is a view from our room`s bedroom .

    

So this is it for the day, about the 5th day of our trip there was one special event which was including ring but for this next time
