Darren's House


We took a day trip from Munich to beautiful Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein castles both are in the southern part of Germany, near the Austrian Border. The morning began a bit overcast and hazy but the sun shined as the day progressed.

The first castle that we visited was Hohenschwangu (more medival looking, yellow castle), which was King Ludwig's the II father's hunting lodge. Nauschwanstein Castle (the one that look's like Sleeping Beauty's castle in Disneyworld) was the mountain escape (yes that's right, you heard me correctly, mountain escape AKA Summer cottage) of King Ludwig the II. For more on the castle and his life click one of my earlier posts here.
