My Euro Travel to the Imperial Castle of Nuremberg in Bavaria , Germany

I had been to Nürnberg, (also written as Nuernberg or Nuremberg in English) for a lot of times already. Sometimes me and my friends drove here to go to the Asian store. We also try to go here every year for the celebration of Chriskindlesmarkt or Christmas Market Festival. The first time we went to the castle was in December 2007. I was not able to set my camera date, that is why you see the embedded date as 2005. We also went up to the hill on the castle and saw the whole city of Nuremberg. I hope I can see more photos in my files to share next time.


Nuremberg Castle (German: Nürnberger Burg) is located on a sandstone rock in the north of the historical city of Nuremberg, Germany. It comprises three parts: the Emperor's buildings ("Kaiserburg"), the mostly built buildings of the rulers of Nuremberg ("Burggrafenburg"), and the buildings on the eastern side ("städtische Burganlage"). The castle was damaged in the Second World War but then reconstructed; today it is one of the main landmarks in Nuremberg. wikipedia

I was in Nürnberg, Bayern, August 08 and the weather was great. We loved the castle and the Biergarten we visited. Great place.

Wow! Looks like you've certainly gotten around. I'd like to get over to Europe someday, but for now the economy is keeping close to home (like if we can't drive there in a reasonable amount of time, we aren't going). *sigh*

If only I could win the lottery, but I guess if you don't play, you can't win. *more sighing*

Keep posting so I can live vicariously through you.
