Heidelberg

It's my pleasure for me to visit a friend in Heidelberg. Last June 2007 me and my husband driving to there. They say Heidelberg is a heart of Europe, i dont know why, maybe because of its beauty and attractions by nature. We stay there for 3 days going around visited the Museum, Palace (Schloss), Old Stadt ( Alt Stadt);The Castle & Königstuhl,Philosophenweg and the River Neckar.

The Philosphenweg offers great views of Heidelberg old town from across the River Neckar..... but there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world and I'm afraid you have to walk up either a pretty steep hill or climb up a lot of steps to enjoy the view...... The Königstuhl-The beautiful old castle dominates the Heidelberg skyline, looming over the old town. While the River Neckar is really beautiful. You'll cruise past lovely old villages and towns - some dating back a thousand years. You'll also notice that there are lots of greens and mountains around.

And Most of all i visited the place and the monument of Dr. Jose Rizal in Heidelberg.
I can't really imagine that i can make a post and take picture near the monument of Dr. Jose Rizal, because i thought this is only in the book when i was in college under the subject "RIZAL".
Wonderful adventure...isnt? For this time i see two kinds of famous River in the whole world. RIVER NECKAR AND RIVER RHIEN.(river rhein is too near in our place in kalkar, Germany).

oy ang galing! talaga? merong statue si rizal sa heidelberg? i know, rizal once made a history in travel but i did not expect he is honored with a statue of him built in there.
