🇩🇪 Bamberg: Germany's Fairytale UNESCO Gem ✨🏰
🚗 Road Trip Stop #8: After a week cruising from Frankfurt to Switzerland (via France!), we circled back to Germany’s most enchanting town—Bamberg! 🕌 Medieval Magic • A UNESCO-listed old town where cobblestone streets and half-timbered houses teleport you to the Middle Ages. • Architectural buffet: Gothic cathedrals, Renaissance facades, and Baroque flourishes coexist perfectly. 🏛️ Must-See Marvels 1️⃣ Bamberg Cathedral Showstopper: Jaw-dropping carvings and a dome that’ll make your neck ache from staring! ✝️ 2️⃣ Old Town Hall (Altes Rathaus) "Floating" on the Regnitz River—get all the angles at dawn/dusk for that golden-hour glow. Pro tip: Squint at the frescoes—hidden devil figures lurk in the details! 😈 🏨 Hotel Weierich • 5-min walk to the Town Hall • Unexpected upgrade: Got a 5-bed suite (thanks to a kind front-desk fairy!). Bathroom? Spacious + glass shower 🚿✨ 🍽️ Bolero Restaurant • 2-min stroll from the hotel • Spanish-German fusion: Must-try: Angus beef 🥩 + local beer pairings 🍺 Tapas squad: Edamame, squid rings, grilled wings... chef’s kiss 👌 💡 Why Bamberg Wins ✓ Compact but mighty—every alley hides a postcard view ✓ Zero crowds, all charm (unlike Rothenburg!) ✓ History you can feel (not just read about) #FairytaleGermany #HiddenEurope #BambergDiaries
