I was in Poland. Trip by the Wisła on ponton, that was wanderful memory

[@ganeshmarathe8404]

Germany is a wonderful country and beauty of German culture

[@suprememaster7339]

I was, with family and friends, in this trip in 2017. I had my birthday during that trip. It's such a wonderful memory...

[@jamesrobinson6382]

This part of Germany is so beautiful. Lovely video too.

[@claiborneeastjr4129]

It is heartwarming to see these magnificent castles/fortresses rebuilt/restored to almost original, pristine condition. They deserve it, and hopefully will be kept in their pristine state. What a beautiful area of a beautiful country. No wonder so many fairy tales originated here!

[@KostenfreiGratis]

Always a nice for a motorcycle tour from Cologne to Rüdesheim 👌

Greetings from Koblenz, my home town ❤

[@deedoyle4069]

Greetings back to you in Koblentz. My Father was born in Boppard am Rhein, and on my 50th birthday, brought me to Oktoberfest, on my birthday. Now I am 85, and the wonderful memories enjoyed there with my Cousins light up my heart often. Nickenig Family!

@@deedoyle4069 wonderful message! Thanks a lot! All best wishes from Koblenz 🇩🇪😊

Danke für das tolle Video. Ich liebe Schlösser in Deutschland. Sie schaffen eine besondere Gemütlichkeit und einen einzigartigen Geschmack des Landes. Schlösser sind von außen schön. Aber wie aufregend ist es, sie von innen zu studieren, besonders wenn es Ihnen gelungen ist, ihren inneren Inhalt zu retten oder neu zu erstellen. Am besten hat mir die Architektur und Lage gefallen 🏰 Stolzenfels bei Koblenz. Ich sah schöne Utensilien, schöne Gemälde und Möbel von schönen Boudoirs, Schlafzimmern, Bibliotheken, Büros ... Oh, wie schön der Rittersaal mit Buntglasfenstern, roten Samtstühlen um einen mit Geschirr gedeckten Tisch, Armbrüsten über einem großen Kamin , und Ritter, die den Frieden der Burg bewachen. Der Innenhof mit bunten Blumen, ein friedlich murmelnder Brunnen, der Blick von der Aussichtsplattform auf den Rhein, die Spitzen der neugotischen Türmchen sind ungewöhnlich gut. Mit meiner reichen Vorstellungskraft, nachdem ich die Schwelle eines gemütlichen Schlosses überschritten hatte, fühlte ich sofort eine starke Beteiligung👑...eine separate Geschichte über die außergewöhnliche Schönheit Lorelai🧜‍♀️ Liebe

Wir freuen uns sehr, dass dir das Video gefallen hat! Danke für deinen Kommentar!

[@vant83]

Hiken earlier this October between the town I was staying (Steeg), Burg Stahleck, then down to Bacharach, then up to Heinrich-Heine-Blick and all the way along the wonderful trail to Oberwesel. Was a dream come true, took a lot of pictures and hope to get back, to hike all the route from Bingen to Koblenz.

[@muhammadaftabalam168]

Lucky to visit this beautiful Rhine valley

[@CAP198462]

A soldier of the legion lay dying in Algiers…. I was born in Bingen on the Rhine.
Can’t hear that town without thinking of that poem.

[@deedoyle4069]

Bingen, Delightful! My family is from Boppard am Rhein. Greeting!

[@PAWfessionalTennis]

It's so beautiful. I love in Bonn, not too far from Koblenz. Today I went to the Drachenfels (dragon rock) mountain next to the Rhine with a palace and some old castle ruins on it

[@wardaakhtar8375]

WOOW, Spectacular

[@vanditkhanna7477]

that was a great video😍

[@DWTravel]

Thank you!

[@Flovus]

Nice touch: the melody from 4:15 is an adaptation of Silcher's score to Heine's Loreley poem ("Ich weiß nicht, was soll es bedeuten")

[@mjstamildocumentary]

I have been to Germany back in 2018, I which I had know this place back then.

[@pianistmanoj5780]

People only think of Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg and few of such well-known cities!!

[@s8theninjawarrior916]

1:04 that's clearly what inspired "a tower full of mice" in the Witcher 3

So nice video

On the roof of Katz Castle you can see a stupid face.
On the roof of Klopp Castle you can see a sinister face.
That's an observation made by my student of English - Kuba.

[@tombombadil9123]

Lorelai rock has been a danger for shipping from time immemorial. there is a dangerous promontory at the base of that cliff which is deceptively covered by ovelaping waves of the Rhine. even with modern technology ships find it difficult to navigate this bit. last major accident happend in 2011 when a barge with sulphuric acid capsized

[@DWTravel]

Yes, that's really a phenomenon!

In my opinion, the Marksburg is the best (and a truly original) Rhein castle, while the Pfaltzgrafenstein is the most picturesque. On the other hand, the Mäuseturm is a phony and a huge disappointment. In my opinion...
