Scenic glory in every direction. Berchtesgaden - Pure Bavaria
This slightly less-ventured destination is a perfect location for the traveler who enjoys fantastic landscapes and art, friendly people, remarkable views of the jagged, snow- covered Alps, and is looking for true Bavarian thrills...all snuggled deep in an enchanted village.
Berchtesgaden has the luxury of a little slower pace, and is well appreciated by this VT'er.
My hopes to see the glorious scenery and sights made infamous(unfortunately, to it's own underserved misfortune) by a well-known dictator who altered the world and its people, were entirely rewarded at each new corner and turn, with views and sites like this photo.
One visit, and it becomes instantly clear why anyone would choose this Bavarian retreat for their private escape from the mainstream, devoid of the hustle-and-bustle of bigger cities.
Located so close to the Austrian border, you can still hear the sounds of magical music just over one of those peaks. |

| Pros: | "Not as tourist-crowded and hectic, pure Bavaria." | | Cons: | "Not as many well-known sites, but is that a negative?" | | In A Nutshell: | "Hooray! Time for those lederhosen, again." |
