Destination - Heidelberg, Germany

Sandra at Head over Heals is teaching us about Germany!! She was born in Heidelberg but never really lived there. She moved back to go to school and Heidelberg stole her heart, like it does to so many others. Heidelberg is definitely a MUST SEE!


Heidelberg is unique for it's castle above the old town and it's river rhine tour.


Here you'll find a mix of many different nations (a lot of Americans there for a visit, to study or the military) and the charm of a very old German town surrounded by a beautiful area of hills and trees.




Isn't it just beautiful. Can you see all those aspiring dreams and bright minds a working in the picture above? How about all the romance and tradition floating around in the air?

We would totally love it in here in the winter time too! Just check out the Christmas Market Sandra went to. She awed at all the beautiful brightly painted stars while sipping hot honey wine - YUMMY!!!

  1. I've been there and I can vouch for its beauty. Everyone should go to Germany for Christmas at least one time. They do it so well. It's so enchanting there.

  3. Oh yes, Heidelberg is truly beautifull. Each season has it's own charm. In Winter it is the christmas market and skating area beneath the castle. In spring it's the cherry trees and so on and on :)

    Thank you for featuring me :)

  10. Heidelberg is a very nice city indeed. I just have do add that Heidelberg lies next to the neckar not the rhine. And I'm not sure which town the first picture shows but its definitely not Heidelberg.
