Nobody could describe as good as Mark Twain this beautiful place : " For Dilsberg is a quaint place. It is most quaintly and picturesquely
situated, too. Imagine the beautiful river before you; then a few rods of
brilliant green sward on its opposite shore; |
|  | then a sudden hill--no
preparatory gently rising slopes, but a sort of instantaneous hill-- a hill two
hundred and fifty or three hundred feet high, as round as a bowl, with the
same taper upward that an inverted bowl has, and with about the same
relation of height to diameter that distinguishes a bowl of good honest
depth--a hill which is thickly clothed with green bushes--a comely, shapely hill,
rising abruptly out of the dead level of the surrounding green plains, visible
from a great distance down the bends of the river, |
and with just exactly room
on the top of its head for its steepled and turreted and roof-clustered cap of
architecture , which same is tightly jammed and compacted within the perfectly
round hoop of the ancient village wall. " | | |
