Oberammergau - Bavarian town. Bavaria has a style of wall painting on houses
Eibsee lake
Hohenswangau Another castle close to Neuschwanstein. This is where Kind Ludwig 1 spent his childhood
The disney castle was modeled from Neuschwanstein Neuschwanstein was also a Nominee for the new world wonders but lost out. If it was fully completed, it might have a chance
Neuschwanstein - This is the reason I wanted to go to Munich. Side view from Mary's Bridge. This is another Kind ludwig's castles. The castle is just one third built. There are beautiful wall paintings inside and not much else. It would have been a master piece if it was completed
