Five years ago, when I first came to Germany, the Volksbühne in Berlin was the first theater I visited. Five years later, I finally had the opportunity to attend a performance inside the theater, and, incredibly, I was fortunate enough to witness the legendary device: the fire curtain!
Among the six productions I watched at this year's Berlin Theater Festival (Theatertreffen), "Die Vernichtung" from the Bern Theatre in Switzerland was my absolute favorite! I was so captivated that I was afraid to miss even a single captivating moment!
On the way to Berlin, my friend asked, "Do you know what food you should try in Berlin? The delicious Vietnamese pho!" I understood that she wasn't just talking about Vietnamese pho, but was highlighting that Berlin offers a variety of delicious international cuisines to try.
I really love the apartment we rented in Berlin! My friend and I each have our own bedroom and bathroom, and we also have a cozy shared living space for interaction. This way, we can enjoy a relaxed and undisturbed lifestyle. It's the ideal way for me to travel.
The originally planned overnight train journey to see the sunrise in Venice ended in failure.
On that day, my friend took me to the largest beer garden in Bavaria: Königlicher Hirschgarten. We arrived around 4 p.m., and since it was still before the end of the workday, the place appeared quite empty. However, I heard that on weekday evenings and holidays, it can get incredibly crowded.
During this European journey, visiting palaces became one of the highlights of the entire trip. The two palaces that left the deepest impression on me were located in Vienna and Munich. Vienna's palace, nestled in the hills, and Munich's palace by the water, each had its unique charm. However, compared to the Vienna Palace, Munich's Schloss Nymphenburg captivated me even more.
This is not a suitable place for a day trip. I left with many regrets because there was so much more to explore!
Located in northwest Bavaria, Germany, Rothenburg preserves various aspects of the Middle Ages. Its streets and buildings seem frozen in the 17th century, attracting numerous tourists. Every evening at 8 o'clock, a guide dressed as a wizard leads visitors to explore this place.
Hot air balloons, perhaps a symbol of happiness. A German couple living in Rothenburg used a hot air balloon ride to celebrate the wife's fiftieth birthday. Another California girl who came here to study also brought her boyfriend along to experience the balloon flight.
