Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany
Neuschwanstein Castle, nestled in the Bavarian Alps, is a true fairytale come to life. Commissioned by King Ludwig II of Bavaria in the 19th century, this architectural marvel seamlessly blends Gothic and Romanesque elements. Its soaring spires and lavishly decorated interiors transport visitors to a world of opulence and imagination. The castle’s romantic allure is known to have inspired the Sleeping Beauty Castle from the Disney movies.
Perched atop a rugged hill, the castle’s location offers breathtaking panoramic views, making it a dream destination for those seeking a real-life fairytale experience. The interior is equally enchanting, with rooms adorned in rich colors, intricate woodwork, and detailed frescoes, each telling its own story. It’s only possible to visit the interior of the castle with a guided visit and if you would like to do it, I recommend you to book it at least a few months in advance since it sells out quickly.
