Lindau *IN* Bodensee

by travelfrosch - last update: Nov 1, 2007

Idyllic Island

Proud locals call their town Lindau in Bodensee. This village, they point out, is not on the lake, but rather in it. On or in, it is undoubtedly a gorgeous place to visit. And visited it is by a great number of German vacationers.
Strolling around the Old Town

The Old Town

In addition to the lake all around, you can enjoy strolling through the narrow streets and classic architecture of this former medieval "Imperial Free City" at the crossroads of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland

Lake Boats

As you might expect, a popular activity is to take boats around the lake. You can either take scenic tours, or use the frequent (during summer, at least) boats to continue your journey. For example, we took a boat across the lake to Switzerland, subsequently re-joining the rails for our journey to the Swiss Alps.

 The Rathaus in Lindau looks interesting even from the outside. A work full of art, I should say.

 :-)) So I needed a certain Mark to teach me that it is Lindau IM Bodensee :-) Never was aware of this before (serious). It looks very cute and thanks for the hotel tip, I'll stay there one day :-)) Oh, did the tiger catch the mouse ?
