Once upon a time.... Neuschwanstein Castle

by sabsi - last update: Oct 25, 2005

Schloss Neuschwanstein
Neuschwanstein Castle was on my "To-Do-before-I-am-old-and-grey-List" for many years basically because I am attracted to Kitsch and Tourist Magnets like this.
I wanted to go here and laugh about the whole hype. Which I did. What I didn't expect, however, was that I was so fascinated by the whole thing that I couldn't look away ;-)

Neuschwanstein is possibly the most touristy thing I have ever done. It possibly was one of the nicest days I have ever spent, too.

Enjoy this page. It contains a lot of cream though so be careful. It might be a little too sweet for some of you ;)

Pros:"It's too beautiful to look away"
Cons:"1.3 million visitors a year."
In A Nutshell:"Tourists, Kitsch, Fake - I love it!"

 I usually find that the places that people shy away from because they don't want to be seen somewhere touristy are the places that have become touristy because they are well worth seeing. Your page is lovely. Thank you I will be there 15 September. Kate
