Wed. July 8th: Most Famous Castle

We got up in the morning and drove about an hour from Garmisch to visit Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau. Neuschwanstein is one of the most famous castles in the world. Walt Disney used this castle for inspiration for the Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World. Hohenschwangau was King Ludwigs parents castle. The castles are within walking distance. Both castles were amazing...we were not allowed to take pictures inside of the castles.



It was a 30 minute walk up to the first castle.







Lots of steps for Raphaella...she really wanted to walk too!
