Heidelberg, Germany

Hi everyone,

Exactly one year ago one of my best friends and I went on a day-trip to Heidelberg. For us that's about a one and a half hour drive. Heidelberg is probably best known for its castle and its old-town.

I've now been to Heidelberg on multiple occasions. One of the must-dos in the city is definitely to go up the hill to the castle. You can walk around the outside or buy a ticket to actually go inside the castle. Either way you get an amazing view of the city from up there. You can also choose between walking up the stairs or buying a ticket to take the bus up the hill. Walking takes about fifteen minutes but the view and the castle itself is definitely worth the effort. Before or after one goes uphill to the castle, you should definitely explore the old-town. There is a bunch of shops in the old, beautiful houses or you can grab a bite to eat.

When we were in the city this time last year, we were lucky enough to see a field of cherry blossoms in the middle of the city.

When you're in that part of Germany, Heidelberg is always worth a visit. The city is incredibly beautiful and there is so much history to explore.

Love,

Svenja
