🇩🇪 4-Hour Adventure in Göttingen, Germany
Our whirlwind tour started with the classic German experience: DB delayed our train to Hannover! ⏳🚆 So we joined the locals at Tchibo for coffee—when in Germany, do as the Germans do! ☕ On the train to Göttingen, we met a Ukrainian sister who spoke flawless Chinese! We chatted nonstop and even made plans to visit her in Hamburg—perfect connection! 👏🏻 ⚡ Göttingen Speedrun Highlights: 1️⃣ Bismarck Tower 🏰 Hiked up to this fairytale tower for panoramic views (€2 climb = 100% worth it!). 2️⃣ Schillerwiese Meadow 🌿 Where Ji Xianlin (China’s master linguist) once studied—now a prime picnic spot! 3️⃣ Historic Residences Ji Xianlin’s former home (Münchhausenstr. 20) Marshal Zhu De’s villa with a German plaque: *"Zhu De, PRC Marshal, 1923-1924"* 🇨🇳 4️⃣ Max Planck High School + Göttingen Opera House 📸 Quick photo ops! (Bonus: Spot the "E=mc²" graffiti nearby!) 5️⃣ Old Botanical Garden 🐸 Found a crowd listening to frogs like it’s a concert—peak Göttingen quirk! 6️⃣ The Goose Girl (Gänseliesel) 💐 Legend says Ph.D. grads must gift her flowers—or their degree doesn’t count! 😂 7️⃣ Forum Wissen Museum 🎟️ FREE entry! Nerded out over: Nobel Prize medals 🏅 Medical art (12 cranial nerves + brachial plexus—our med friend freaked!) 🧠 Why Göttingen Rocks: Nobel vibes everywhere (45+ laureates!) History meets humor (frog symphonies? Sure!) Compact & walkable—we did it all in 4 hours! #GermanyTravel #GöttingenExpress #NobelCity #HistoricWalks #StudyAbroadLife #PerfectDayTrip 🚶♂️🌍
