The Museum celebrates the automobile invented by Carl Benz in 1886: it relates its history and tells its stories, bringing both alive by placing them in the context of technology, day-to-day life, social history and popular culture. More than 160 vehicles of all types are the main protagonists. They range from some of the oldest automobiles ever built to legendary racing cars and futuristic research vehicles. Together with other exhibits, they form the centrepiece of the permanent exhibition covering a total of 16,500 square metres in twelve rooms. This unparalleled world can be discovered on two tours that follow a 'Legend' and 'Collection' narrative.
A mazing museum of automotive history, brilliantly laid out in a logical fashion with very good information relating to world history as you start from the top at the beginning and work your way down to the present at the bottom. Lots to see and some great photo opportunities. Take plenty of time. 2hours at least. The shop at the end of museum is good but a bit pricey. And we were lucky, in front of museum was a classic car meeting that day. Many american muscle cars to see.

Situated just north of the Brandenburg Gate, this building houses the German Parliament and was the seat of the Weimar Republic government until it was seized by the Nazis in 1933.
The Reichstag has this amazing opportunity that lets you dine in their rooftop restaurant for breakfast - incredible food, amazing view, the chance to walk around the German parliament, what more could you ask for?

This town square, built next to and named after Freiburg's famous cathedral, is still a major center of the city's social activity.
There is a nice market near the Cathedral. And Rote lange is absolutely tasty! And next week-end we had fish sandwiches. As well as bought some samples of German sausages and French cheeses. Besides we bought some of the farmer produce of an excellent quality for daily use which was very helpful as we were staying in an apartment nearby for 9 days with self service! Recommend very much!

This central location of Wiesbaden nightlife, the Kurhaus is most famous for its renowned casino.
We were stunned by visiting this impressive building. The Kurhaus Wiesbaden, a cure house as it means, built in 1907, is a place of marvelous historic architecture and state-of-the-art comfort, the perfect blend of relaxation, experience, beauty, and functionality. Since its inauguration, it has been a center of social events in the city. With its twelve magnificent halls and salons, it offers the ideal venue for galas, seminars, conferences, and congresses. It has also been used for filming TV series and movies. The neoclassical architecture houses a convention center and a casino. The building is divided into two equal-sized wings. In the south wing there is a large central pillar-lined concert hall. The north wing houses the smaller ballroom, a restaurant, and the main portion of the Casino, or Spielbank, which offers roulette, blackjack, and poker. During the 1980s, the Kurhaus underwent an extensive renovation and was equipped with modern conference technology. A landmark of an elegant city, it is surrounded by a lot of green, and splendid historical buildings. A complex of 12 rooms and parlors of varying size and style, several restaurants and the Casino, all assembled under one roof. For me, this has a significant status – my son Wasif Sagri attended his graduation ceremony at this splendid convention center on completion of his MBA in International Business Administration.

Yet another of the eccentric King Ludwig II's magnificently odd architectural creations.
You will be greeted at the entry to the little tourist shopping area where you will pay about 7 euros to park. From there you will walk to the nearby ticket office and purchase tickets for reserved tour times for one or both castles. This must be done on the day of your visit, and it's a good idea to get there early, since the time slots fill up rapidly and the number of people per slot is limited. Allow two hours between the starts of the tours if you plan to take the bus up to Neuschwanstein rather than walk, three hours if you walk. From the ticket office you will take a short walk uphill through a small shopping area with restaurants, hotel, a bank, gift shops, etc., following the signs to Schloss Hohenschwangau. It's best to see this castle first since it's the closest and the easiest stairway climb up the hillside. After this tour, which is about 40 minutes, walk back down to the nearby bus stop (you won't have trouble finding it) and purchase tickets at 2-1/2 euros each for the ride up the mountain stopping near Schloss Neuschwanstein, about a 10-minute drive and the buses run at 10-minute intervals. Or, you can use the walking trail if you’re in good shape, but it’s rather steep and long (about 40 minutes) and keep in mind that there are a LOT of stairs on the castle tour. The bus will let you off at a point with a very short hike to Mary’s Bridge (highly recommended if you’re not afraid of heights or rickety-feeling bridges), where you will get the best view photo view of the castle. From there walk back down to the bus stop and follow the signs mostly downhill to the castle, about a 10-minute walk. Taking the hiking path down from there after the 40-minute tour is easier than walking back uphill to the bus, since it’s all downhill. If you’re a serious German history buff and want to learn everything (and I mean Everything) about the history of the region, you can buy the museum tickets at the door. Don't miss the Linderhof Palace for jaw-dropping opulence while you're in the area. It's not as big as the castles, but the interior is truly impressive.

This giant Gothic cathedral, which until its completion in 1880 had been under construction for over 500 years, is perhaps Germany's most famous religious structure and includes two huge towers that serve as the defining symbol of Cologne's skyline.
Jaw dropping cathedral.Wonderful to walk around.You can have an unhurried stroll and wonder at the skills involved in the conduction of this wonderful building.Not for the faint hearted is a trip up to the bell tower.Breathtaking in every sense of the word. Very busy in summer

Although often overshadowed by the tremendous Martinsdom, this cathedral is notable for its dazzling Chagall stained-glass windows.
St Stephans was founded in 990 but it is most famous for its stained glass windows which were created by Marc Chagall and then Charles Marq. The church itself is beautifully simple, lofty and illuminated by the majesty of its stained glass windows. Chagall intended the windows to be a token of friendship between Germany and France, providing a message of understanding and peace. He chose blue, 18 shades of blue, for his biblical cycle of nine windows because they appeal to our very life spirit just as a clear blue sky on a summers day lifts the heart. He thought gazing on such lovely shades of blue placed the visitor in a more meditative state and made it easier to commune with god.. The windows tell the story of creation and they endow the church with great beauty. It is remarkable that he finished his windows in his 98th year. Charles Marq was a life long friend of Chagall and carried on his work in the church by completing the window in the north and south aisles. Marq created magnificent windows using only 8-10 shades of blue and they fit perfectly in harmony with the Chagall windows and are a joy to see. Buy a guide book and spend time in this joyful and peaceful place admiring the work of two great artists. There is much to see and admire including the church organ. Don't forget to visit the cloisters which are also lovely. At the back of the church there is a WC. My cruise ship guide never mentioned this church which was amazing but I rate it as an absolutely unmissable place to visit in Mainz. Its a bit of walk uphill but well worth it Highly recommended- do not miss.

The yellow Gothic castle in which King Ludwig II spend his childhood.
We stopped here on the way to Schloss Neuschwanstein. An amazing and beautiful castle with a fascinating history, a wonderful place to visit in the area.
