🇩🇪 Snap Trip to Ulm: Southern Germany’s Hidden Gem

Just dashed through Ulm—and wow, South Germany really nails the charm + livability combo! Here’s my lightning-round recap: 🏰 Must-Sees 1️⃣ Wiblingen Abbey: Skip the museum ticket—the Rococo library (free!) is the real showstopper. Gold leaf, frescoes, the works. 2️⃣ Blautopf: Germany’s “mini Jiuzhaigou” in Blaubeuren. Hike beyond the blue lagoon for epic trails. 3️⃣ Ulm Minster: That 161m textbook Gothic spire you’ve seen in photos. 4️⃣ Hotel Schiefes Haus: The world’s most tilted hotel (10° lean!)—adorably crooked. 5️⃣ Einstein Brunnen: Rub the snail-Einstein’s head for academic blessings (1.0 GPA, please! 🧠✨). 🍽️ Food Wins Haberfelder im Ulmer Wirtshaus: €20 for a Bavarian feast (better than Munich’s tourist traps!). Herdbrücke ice cream: Straddle the Baden-Württemberg/Bavaria border with a cone—cash only! 🌿 Why Ulm Shines Spotless streets (take notes, NRW 😒). Two-day ideal: Rush = regret. Slow walks by the Danube are the vibe. #UlmInADay #GermanFairytale #StudyAbroadLife
