    The company I worked for in Australia offered me a job in Germany back in 2005. I accepted and stayed for around 14 months and my apartment backed on to the Rhine. Every weekend I was off exploring the little towns of the Rhine and Mosel. Looking back now they were some of the happiest days of my life and I do miss Germany, it is so under promoted and underrated. If you ever have the chance to visit then do ....you will not be disappointed!

It goes straight back on the shelf, I don't visit any country to buy a souvenier from China unless I am in China. There is nothing like finding the local hand crafts.

      Tridhos I need your advice. I need to know if I do the same trip from Munich to Frankfurt. how I do that ? thank you.

      Erin Maria i think Tridhos is absolutely right. If you visit a country you should support the local. And the locals should sell local goods in touristic places. No matter if it's for the authenticity (?), economy or the receiver of the souvenir... No offence to chinese products. But if i am on a visit to X, i wanna bring home something an honest fellow of X crafted! Souvenirs made in another country are sad, period to me.

    Very nostalgic watching this video. My wife and I lived in Germany for a year early seventies. Burg Eltz was one of our favorites. The day we were there, the German air force had decided to do to practice strafing runs up the hill toward the castle. Quite a memory of the mix of cultures and times.

      Since there are no coincidences... Maybe germany is crying for you. It's own habitants are not allowed to appreciate, defend or like it in any way. Come see it, maybe you wanna stay ;)

    In 2011 I rode a bicycle from Beijing to Amsterdam, riding along the Main and between Bingen and Boppard. I try to plan my bicycle trips with the UNESCO Heritage Site map as a guide. I was fascinated by all of the medieval tons and castles.

    • @LUIS-ox1bv

      Burg Eltz is strictly not a castle, but a fortified, family residence. It does not exhibit what would have denoted castle construction in Germany or in any other country in Europe.
