Europe Adventure: Neuschwanstein Castle

On the drive from Switzerland to Munich, we stopped at Neuschwanstein Castle. It is in Bavaria, Germamy and absolutely beautiful.

It may look familiar because it inspired Sleeping Beauty’s castle and was also used in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

To get to the castle, we had to climb a mountain. We began in the village and walked up. It is supposed to be a 40 minute uphill walk if you walk at a normal pace. We were limited to 20 minutes because we were severely late and about to miss our time slot for a tour. We did it in 15 minutes. It was terrible. And it smelled like horse because you could rent a carriage to take you up.
