Carlsbad

Carlsbad is one of the most beautiful cities I have visited in Europe. The town seems to be a scene from a fairy tale story. I visited over Labor Day weekend in 2014. It was about a 4 hour drive from Berlin where I was staying.

The town is a tourist area that many local Europeans go for holiday. Historically, royalty would come to rejuvenate themselves in the hot springs. The many former palaces are now 4 and 5 star hotels that go for as low as €50/night. Because these rooms were meant for royalty, the sizes are very generous, unlike most hotels in Europe. Today, it's an affordable, and inspiring place to visit in Europe. I stayed in one of these palaces turned hotels and couldn't help but think, a king, duke, prince, bishop, and other nobility use to stay here, and now they're available for anyone to spend the night. Here are some of my favorite photos I took. If you're in central Europe, I recommend taking a road trip there.

Sort:  

The mineral water runs into the river and to my surprise the river is full of fish feeding on algae. I would expect that ph or other chemical conditions of the water are not favorable for fish.
