This is not a suitable place for a day trip. I left with many regrets because there was so much more to explore!
After more than half a month, my journey through Germany is coming to an end. On the train and along the railway, the diverse European travelers have enriched my imagination.
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.
Starting from Alte Brücke, when you see the statues of the Elector and Athena, you are entering the city. Keep walking, and you will reach the steep section of the Philosophenweg. Why is this approximately two-kilometer-long path called the "Philosopher's Path"?
Join me on a journey to Bregenz, a picturesque town nestled at the border of Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. It's a destination that comes alive once a year for the grand opera extravaganza known as the Bregenzer Festspiele. But what truly sets this festival apart is its iconic centerpiece—the Floating Stage (Seebühne) that graces the shores of Lake Constance. Prepare to be captivated by the enchanting setting, where music and art blend seamlessly, making it the heart and soul of the Bregenz Music Festival.
MuseumsQuartier Wien, located southwest of the city center, covers approximately 60,000 square meters and is the largest museum district in Europe. With nearly 50 cultural facilities, it includes a diverse range of art forms, including paintings, performing arts, dance, architecture, music, new media, and film works.
Passing by St. Charles Church, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that tonight's performance is Mozart's Requiem. Being in such a beautiful church and being immersed in a piece I love is the greatest fortune of visiting the city of music.
The Kapuzinerkirche is located in the bustling area of Vienna, just one street away from the Hofburg. The exterior of this church is very unassuming, making it difficult for me to imagine the stunning scenes inside.
Audiences who have watched Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris" are undoubtedly familiar with the Rodin Museum. In the film, apart from the memorable portrayal of Carla Bruni, the former First Lady of France, the sculptures at the Rodin Museum truly touched my heart.
