Neuschwanstein Castle🇩🇪A Fairytale Come to Life

#westerneurope I visited Neuschwanstein Castle, and it truly lives up to its iconic status. Perched on a hill in the Bavarian Alps, the castle looks like something out of a storybook. The Una Jyu of this experience, metaphorically speaking, was the view from the Marienbrücke (Mary’s Bridge). The panoramic view of the castle against the mountainous backdrop was simply breathtaking — easily the highlight of the visit. It’s a popular spot, so expect crowds — especially midday. Booking tickets online in advance is a must to avoid long queues.

Ready for a magical trip through southern Germany? 🚄🌄 Here’s how I combined city vibes and fairy-tale castles on a two-stop adventure: Munich’s historic Marienplatz and the legendary Neuschwanstein Castle in Schwangau. First up, Munich! Take a morning stroll to Marienplatz (Marienplatz, 80331 München, Germany)—it’s open 24/7 and always buzzing, from street musicians to historic architecture. Grab a snack from a nearby bakery and soak up the lively atmosphere. For train lovers, catch a regional DB train towards Füssen. Tip: Sit on the right side for the best country and Alps views! Next, jump off at Schwangau for Neuschwanstein Castle (Neuschwansteinstraße 20, 87645 Schwangau, Germany). If visiting April–Oct, aim for the early 9:00 AM opening—less crowd, epic photos! Admission is €19.80, and it’s worth every cent for the dramatic mountain backdrop and inside tour. Outside, hike up to Mary’s Bridge for panoramic shots! Getting Around: Munich’s public transport is super convenient—use trams and S-Bahn for city sights. For the castle day trip, regional DB trains (buy tickets on trip.com) and buses link everything perfectly. Food Picks: In Munich, the classic pretzel stand in Marienplatz and a local beer hall (feast on sausage and sauerkraut!) are musts. Near Neuschwanstein, grab warm apple strudel at one of the tiny cafés by the ticket office. Pro Tip: Book train tickets in advance for better prices and smoother transfers. Always check castle opening days (closed some holidays). The weather can change fast—layer up, especially near the Alps! #GermanyTrip #MunichMoments #BavariaViews #CastleHunter #Tripdotcom
