Oktoberfest Bundle 2 - Fussen

We took the train which brought us to Munich Hbf in 2hours and went to the korean hostel for rest time. the landlord is so nice for picking us up from the station though it was a mere 5mins walk to his place. and cooked ramien for us. the next morning, we even had yummy korean breakfast. ♥ We're paying 50 Euros/night, which is kinda cheap already considering the fact that it's Oktoberfest. The rooms were great, give it 4/5 stars.
The landlady even brought us around Munich in her car before dropping us at the station again. This time, we're taking the train to Fussen which is about 2hrs away from Munich. Another town in the Bavarian region of German with 2 main tourist attraction. Castles.Castle no. 1 Neuschwanstein Schloss.
Fairytale-like castle built in the 1800 is the inspiration for the present Cinderella Castle in Disneyland. this is the real one ! haah. it is really pretty, the exterior and the interior. too bad ludwig II couldnt enjoy the whole castle. the interior decor is amazing, real beautiful. there is even a cave in the castle to portray one of the scenes in Richard Wagner's play. We're not allowed to take any photos in the castle, which is such a pity.Castle no. 2 Hohenschwangau Castle.
a yellow castle located opposite the Neuschwanstein Schloss isnt as pretty. we didnt go in because according to daljoon, it's not worth the money. soo let's just look at it from the outside.Marienbrücke
the hanging bridge which allows one to look at the Neuschwanstein castle from another angle and also the beautiful landscape which surrounds the castle. it was pretty scary standing on the bridge, as it was wobbly and shook whenever too many pple were on the same spot at one time
