Chapter 1499 Early Winter



The style of this building had a great influence on the early Baroque architecture of southern Germany. The church facade is very majestic and has some statues of members of the Wittelsbach dynasty. Between the two entrances, a huge bronze statue by Hubert Gerhard shows the Archangel Michael fighting for the faith and killing the devil in the form of a dragon.

Continue walking forward and you will reach the center of Munich - Marienplatz. There is a Virgin Mary Column in the middle of the square, expressing people's gratitude and love for the Virgin Mary. There is a fish fountain in the northeast corner of the square, which used to be the place where butcher apprentices held their apprenticeship ceremony. To the northwest of Marienplatz is the Marienkirche, the New Town Hall is on the north side of Marienplatz, and the Old Town Hall is on the east side of the square.

The Viktorian Market is on the southeast side of the square. The shape of the drains in European buildings is very strange. There are artists painting on the square. In one day, I saw several girls in three different places in Munich. St. Peter's Church is the oldest church in the inner city of Munich, Germany. There are many paper pigeons hanging in the church.

There is a market next to the church, which has a variety of ingredients, catering, and food. It is worth visiting. It is full of Christmas decorations. At lunch time, the market was full of people. I ordered a seafood salad, which cost about 10 euros. The consumption in Germany is not high. The consumption in Munich is a little higher than other cities in Germany.

Walking to the town square, Yunluo was attracted by a light and cheerful music coming from a white piano. On the busy street in the evening, this cute boy played a song for Yunluo. The Royal Palace Garden is located between the Munich Royal Palace and the English Park. It was built in 1939. It is an Italian Renaissance-style courtyard building.

The center is the pavilion of the moon goddess Diana. The sky was particularly beautiful on the last evening in Germany. The whole city was blue and purple. In the twelve days, I went from being confused at the beginning to gradually becoming familiar with the daily life in Germany. I became familiar with the trains, the food, the Germans' love of coffee and beer, and the unpredictable weather.

Today, Yunluo and Anchu's destination is Heidelberg, a city Yunluo has been waiting for for a long time. It is a famous tourist and cultural capital in Germany, a vibrant mixture of tradition and modernity. In the past, it was a center of science and art. Today, Heidelberg continues the tradition and has built many research centers in and around the city.

The beautiful Heidelberg is an ancient cultural city and university town on the Neckar River. It is located about 100 kilometers south of Frankfurt. It is a miniature of romantic Germany. The winding and quiet alleys connect the castle and the river, full of poetic and picturesque scenery. The castle is located on the King's Throne Hill on the Neckar River. It is a reddish-brown castle. It is the site of an ancient imperial palace.

Mainly built of Neckar River sandstone, it has a complex structure and varied styles. Although it is now in ruins, it still retains its royal aura. Heidelberg Castle Heidelberg Castle overlooks the entire city from inside the castle. Yunluo and An Chuyu booked a castle tour guide for the afternoon. Yunluo and An Chuyu used this time to visit Heidelberg University and.

The Knight's House, also known as the House of the Knight of St. George (Hauz Zum Ritter St Georg), is a Renaissance building named after the knight's portrait painted on its exterior wall. It is one of the oldest buildings preserved in the city. The Knight's House was built in 1910 by a German cloth merchant named Charles Beryl, who specialized in Chinese silk and satin.

Later, the Knight's House became a private residence. It was converted into a hotel and is still in operation today. The Church of the Holy Spirit (Heiliggeistkirche) is located opposite the Knight's House. It is a Baroque-style building with a beautiful spire. There are burial areas for successive electors, and there are stained glass windows in the church with the theme of the tragic atomic bomb explosion in Hiroshima, Japan.

University Square (Universitatsplatz). It is a T-shaped square located on the west and south sides of the old university and extends to the south. There is a lion fountain on the square. Martin Luther and Augustine once debated in the square. There are college students in the corner doing something unknown. Heidelberg University was founded in 1916, as early as the century.

Heidelberg University has become the center of European science and culture. Today, Heidelberg is as famous as it was in the past. As the population of the city is mostly students, Heidelberg is the city with the youngest average age in Germany. Heidelberg University is located in. When it was founded in 1910, it only had three colleges: the Faculty of Theology, the Faculty of Law, the Faculty of Philosophy and the Faculty of Medicine. Scholars and students from all over Europe gathered here.

In the 18th century, Heidelberg had become a cultural center in Europe. At the end of the 18th century, the university was closed for a time due to war and other reasons. Since the 18th century, it has vigorously developed the disciplines of natural sciences and applied sciences, and now it has become a comprehensive university with nearly 100 colleges. The clinical medicine and heart research of the medical department enjoy a high reputation all over the world.

Many large scientific research institutions closely related to the university, such as the European Laboratory of Molecular Biology and the German Cancer Research Center, are also very famous. Heidelberg University has two campuses, the old and new. The new campus was built in the 1930s. The buildings on the campus are also very beautiful. The student prison (Studentenkarzer) is located on the east side of the old university, which is actually equivalent to a solitary confinement room.

But it is indeed unique in the world. Due to the extraterritoriality, students committed minor crimes and the police could not intervene. Citizens expressed dissatisfaction with the university authorities, so the university authorities set up this prison. Criminal students must go to class during the day. They come back at night and are detained. During this period, they can only get bread and water.

The detention time varies from day to day, depending on the severity of the student's crime. After all, this is not a real prison. There is no prohibition on buying food from other places, nor is there a prohibition on other students visiting. Therefore, this place quickly became a student paradise, where people eat, drink and make noise at night. Many students deliberately cause trouble in order to get "detained" here.

This was first used as a student prison in 1915 and was finally stopped when World War I broke out in 1939. Old iron beds and old tables and chairs can be seen in the cells, and the walls and ceilings are covered with graffiti by students. This is the only time I had ice cream in Germany. I could choose any flavor and the waiter could make the ice cream into the shape of rose petals.

It's a pity that I didn't take any photos. It was almost time to eat, so Yunluo and An Chuyu bought a hot dog at the entrance of the castle as lunch. Heidelberg Castle is a reddish-brown ancient castle and the symbol of Heidelberg. The castle is located on the wooded Koenigsstuhl Mountain on the banks of the Neckar River and is the site of the Elector's Palace.

The castle is mainly built with reddish-brown Neckar River sandstone. The castle has a complex internal structure, including fortifications, living quarters and palaces. Construction began in the 18th century and took years to complete. Due to the constant changes in architectural style, it has formed a wonderful mixture of Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance styles, making it a representative work of German Renaissance architecture.

In the 18th century, the castle was destroyed twice by the French, and the castle's owner, the Electorate family, moved to Mannheim. Later, part of the abandoned castle was restored and rebuilt, and the main building was restored to its original appearance and usable at the end of the century. Most of the rooms in the castle are open to tourists, and some well-preserved halls can still be used for banquets and art performances.

The unrestored parts are still in ruins. Some of the upper rooms only have one outer wall left. This is a beautiful castle, but also a castle ruin full of vicissitudes. Mark Twain said of Heidelberg Castle: dilapidated but still kingly, like King Lear in the storm. The world's largest red wine barrel currently in the castle.

Around 10:00 p.m., Yunluo and Anchuyu signed up for a Segway tour, which is very popular in various European cities. It is a great way to tour the entire city in the shortest time and in the most convenient way, with English and local language guides leading and explaining. Yunluo and Anchuyu experienced every corner of Heidelberg in an hour.

For safety reasons, Yunluo and An Chuyu were not allowed to use mobile phones and cameras during the Segway trip. Except for the rest time, Yunluo and An Chuyu spent a pleasant night at Xiao C's farm. To express her gratitude, Yunluo gave some gifts and a handmade card. Xiao C's mother is a very good woman.

She took great care of Yunluo and An Chuyu during their days together. The night before yesterday, Yunluo's clothes were not dry. She didn't know how late she had to wait for Yunluo's clothes to dry and fold them before going to bed. When she left, she gave Yunluo a big hug and shed tears of reluctance. She took the train early in the morning and went to Paris, the next stop for Yunluo and An Chuyu, with Xiao C.

We booked a studio apartment on booking.com. Damn, it was on the sixth floor, there was no elevator, and the four suitcases and the backpack were really heavy. After Yunluo and Anchu met another friend, Xiao A and Xiao F, at the hotel, they came to the Eiffel Tower, a tourist attraction in Paris. Everyone was so familiar with the Eiffel Tower that Yunluo didn't even need to look for information to introduce it.

The original plan was to climb the tower. But the weather was bad that day, it was gray and drizzling, so Yunluo and An Chuyu decided to change the plan and go on a boat trip. The boat was empty, with no more than 100 tourists, including Yunluo and An Chuyu. There were audio guides in English and French. The most spectacular and magnificent bridge is the Pont Alexandre III.

Built in 1910, it was a gift from Russian Tsar Nicholas II to celebrate the Russian-French alliance. The bridge was named after Alexander III, the father of Tsar Nicholas II. Russia and France were once enemies, and Napoleon once led his army to attack Russia. A hundred years later, the two countries reconciled their grievances and meaningfully built a bridge leading to Napoleon's tomb.

The four bridgeheads at the north and south ends of the bridge are decorated with golden Pegasus statues. The sculptures and decorations on the bridge are all golden. The flower lights are supported by the winged Cupid. Legend has it that if you take a cruise with your lover and cross the Alexander III Bridge, you will be together forever. Dinner at Notre Dame de Paris by the Seine is near the hotel.

The taste is so-so. The price is moderate. The Louvre ---- Notre Dame de Paris ---- The Eiffel Tower Summit Hotel is very close to the Louvre, about a minute's walk away.

The Louvre Museum (French: Musée du Louvre) is located on the north bank (right bank) of the Seine in the center of Paris, France. It was formerly the royal palace of France and was home to 18 French kings and queens. It is now the Louvre Museum, with an art collection of more than 10,000 pieces, including sculptures, paintings, fine arts and crafts and ancient oriental

The museum's collection catalogue contains works of art from ancient Egypt, Greece, Etruria, Rome, and other countries in the East, sculptures from the Middle Ages to modern times, as well as an astonishing number of royal treasures and fine paintings.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

So far, the Louvre has become a world-famous art palace. The most famous of these are the three treasures of the palace, the "Venus de Milo", the "Victory of Nica" and the "Mona Lisa". There are also a large number of antiques from Greece, Rome, Egypt and the East, as well as ancient relics from France and Italy, covering an area of ​​10,000 square meters.

The transparent pyramid building at the main entrance of the Louvre is the masterpiece of Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei. After entering the Louvre, go to the service desk to get a free map, and then go to buy tickets. You can rent an audio guide at the ticket office, but unfortunately there is no Chinese version. Those who are good at English can rent an English one, and those who are not good at English don't need to rent one, which can save you money.

Art students who were devoted to copying behind the Goddess of Victory could be seen everywhere. The head and arms of the Goddess of Victory have been lost, but it is still considered a masterpiece of ancient Greek sculpture. No matter from which angle, the viewer can see and feel the majestic posture of the Goddess of Victory spreading her wings and ready to fly. Her upper body is slightly leaning forward, and her strong, plump and graceful body is in a graceful posture.

The strong and huge wings flying high fully embody the victor's majestic posture and the passion of cheering for victory. The sea breeze seems to be blowing from her front. The thin clothes faintly reveal the goddess's plump and elastic body. The texture of the dress and the carving of the folds are amazing. The fluttering corners of the clothes and the spread wings constitute the...

The extremely smooth lines, and the wavy lines of the legs and wings form an obtuse triangle, which strengthens the forward posture. Of all the paintings, the most outstanding and eye-catching is naturally Leonardo da Vinci's immortal masterpiece "Mona Lisa" completed in 1916. "Mona Lisa" is placed in a hall in the middle of the second floor of the Louvre, covered with glass.

Obviously, it is a special protection. The soft light around the glass cover is enough for the audience to see every detail of the picture. "Mona Lisa", also known as "The Eternal Smile", is considered to be the first work in the history of Western European painting that focuses on psychological description. It represents Leonardo da Vinci's highest artistic achievement and successfully created the image of a city-owned woman in the rising period of capitalism.

The figure in the painting sits elegantly with a subtle smile. The background landscape is deep and vast, which fully demonstrates the painter's unique smoky "air perspective" brushwork. The painter strives to cleverly combine the rich inner feelings and beautiful appearance of the figure, focusing on the key parts of the face such as the corners of the eyes and lips that express emotions.

It also pays special attention to the dialectical relationship between precision and implicitness, and achieves the realm of charm. As a result, Mona Lisa's smile has a mysterious and eternal charm. That dreamlike charming smile is called "mysterious smile" by many art historians. What's more amazing is that before this famous painting, no matter from which angle you look at it.

Her gentle eyes always look at you with a smile, very vivid. As if she is right beside you. In fact, Mona Lisa is very small. "Venus de Milo" is a world-famous statue of the goddess of youth and beauty. Marble sculpture, height centimeters. According to legend, it was carved by Alexandros of ancient Greece between BC and 2000.

The statue was discovered in 1996 near an ancient tomb on the Greek island of Milos in the Aegean Sea. It is a marble sculpture with a broken arm. It is a half-naked full-body statue with a handsome face and a well-proportioned figure. The clothes have fallen to the hips, and the right arm is broken, but it still shows the unique curves of a woman, looking dignified and charming. After being purchased by France for a large sum of money, it is displayed in a special exhibition room specially set up in the Louvre.

With its unique charm, it shocked the world. Since then, "Venus de Milo" has been famous all over the world and has become a symbol of love and beauty. Good friends Xiao C, Xiao A and Xiao F have various famous paintings. Unfortunately, Yunluo is not an art student. He can only look at some paintings and does not know how to appreciate them. Reminder: When drinking water or eating, try to stay away from these precious paintings.

Otherwise, you will feel bad if you damage the cultural relics, and you can't afford to pay for it. I have to admire the French. Do they think everyone in the world can speak French? It's hard to see a word of English in the whole Louvre. I spent two hours looking for a restroom. It's not that Yunluo and An Chuyu can't understand the map, but Yunluo and An Chuyu can't understand the map of the Louvre!

Here is a suggestion for everyone. If you happen to pass by a restroom while visiting the Louvre, whether you need it or not, it is recommended that you go to the restroom first, otherwise you will be like Yunluo, who searched the entire Louvre for a restroom but couldn't find it. After lunch, Yunluo and An Chuyu arrived at their second destination for the day. (~^~)
