By the way, I admired the rainy Bettelsgarden. I went back to the dormitory to rest for an hour, and then went out to look for food. I walked around, but to no avail. Finally, I went to Burger King →_→ In fact, sometimes the journey is like this, various uncertainties will inadvertently disrupt Yunluo and An's plan to meet for the first time.
But Yunluo always believed that this regret was to allow Yunluo to see the most beautiful appearance of King Lake at first sight⊙﹏⊙The heavy rain for a day and a night washed the leaves of Berchtestgaden shiny. The mist in the mountains and forests did not completely dissipate, but there was a faint light in the clouds, secretly envying the people who were about to go to King Lake.
The scenery today should be beautiful. There are many school buses parked at the bus station. In the morning, there are few buses, so some of them are used as school buses to pick up and drop off children. With more or less regret, I took the train to Salzbugr and prepared to go to Hallstatt. It took about 50 minutes to arrive at Salzbugr. It was almost the same platform.
You can take the road to Bad Ischl Bahnhof. The scenery along the way is very good, and it feels like Switzerland! But compared to the bright sunshine in Switzerland, the misty Austria is more mysterious. Along the way, Switzerland is like a sunny child, Germany is like a gloomy uncle, and Austria is more like a girl with a veil.
Different weather conditions bring different experiences and feelings. Along the way, the snow-capped mountains shrouded in mist, the misty lakes and mountains, everything makes this beautiful girl look more shy and mysterious. It was about another hour and a half drive, and we got off at Bad Ischl Bahnhof, next to the train station.
Soon we got on the train to Hallstatt. The scenery along the way was even more beautiful, with snow-capped mountains shrouded in rain and fog, and vague reflections on the calm lake. Soon the train stopped at the small station of Hallstatt. The small town of Hallstatt is on the other side of the station. It looks even more charming against the backdrop of the snow-capped mountains. We got off here.
They all wanted to go to the town. After buying the boat tickets, they boarded the boat they had always wanted to take. They set off for the town! As they were short of money, Yunluo and An Chuyu decided to find an ATM to withdraw some money first. They walked along the left side of the pier, looking at souvenir shops along the way. They took photos and were surprised along the way. They didn't walk far.
It was the angle of the photo that attracted Yunluo to Hallstatt. There were mottled snow-capped mountains in the distance, colorful houses nearby, dots of sunlight, and faint reflections. Everything matched so perfectly and beautifully. I walked and walked, got a map at the information counter, and withdrew money from the ATM next to it.
I immediately felt more confident and prepared to start looking for food. But first I went to the lake to take some photos and feed the swans →_→ Finally I went back to the ferry to eat a fast food meal, a plate of fries and a small roast chicken. Yunluo enjoyed the roast chicken very much, it was full of meat! I had read in the guide that the town was very small and it could be visited in two hours.
After dinner, Yunluo and An Chuyu started to look for the best shooting angle on the postcard along the right side of the ferry. Not bad, just perfect. After taking the big scene, Yunluo started to change his taste and take pictures of the small scene. You don't know until you take a picture. You will be surprised when you take a picture. It turns out that the small scene is the scenery everywhere! Small flowers on the windowsill, white walls and green windows, trees growing along the wall.
The little rooster overlooking the snow-capped mountains, the scenery is everywhere. We are about to leave this small town. After just a few hours of meeting, Yunluo actually loves this small town so much. Even with the regrets of King Lake, Yunluo will come again. Get off the boat and take the train to Attnangpuchheim, then transfer to another train and set off for Wien, Yunluo and An Chuyu's destination today!
After getting off the train, I found a Chinese restaurant near the train station and had a meal with two dishes and a soup. The portions were large and very affordable. I recommend it! A day in Vienna Vienna (Wien) (staying in Vienna) was not as sunny as expected, but overcast and gloomy. According to the map I checked yesterday.
It takes about 40 minutes to walk from where I live to Schönbrunn Palace. It's almost the same distance by bus, and it only takes one stop. I don't know how Vienna's city buses are designed! So the three of us decided to walk there. Maybe because Schönbrunn Palace is in the suburbs, there were almost no people along the way.
The gloomy sky was dotted with thick fallen leaves on the roadside, which was peaceful and beautiful. Because we walked very slowly, it took about fifty minutes to finally reach the entrance of Schönbrunn Palace. The popularity suddenly increased. Most of the groups were from Asia. A Japanese uncle approached Yunluo and An Chuyu and asked them if they were Japanese. Yunluo and An Chuyu smiled angrily.
Along the way, I was first mistaken for a Japanese by a German brother, then mistaken for a German by an Austrian brother, who even said "Arigato" to Yunluo and An Chuyu. Now I am mistaken for a Japanese by a Japanese uncle. Is it because Yunluo and An Chuyu are too short? It's really funny. I thought it would be less cold in a big city with more people.
So I took off my down jacket and put on some single clothes. I felt so young now! I saw that those lively aunties were wearing at least cotton clothes! I quickly ran to the ticket hall to keep warm and bought tickets to visit some exhibition halls of Schönbrunn Palace. I chose the audioguide because it has Chinese explanations. I quickly went out to Schönbrunn Palace.
After storing my bag for free and picking up a guide at the entrance, I started my tour of Schönbrunn Palace. I saw the luxurious life of the royal family members and listened to the European history of a period that I couldn't quite figure out. What impressed me most were the portraits of people in two rooms separated by a wall. One room was for ordinary people, and the other was for royal children.
It's not even close. It turns out that Princess Sissi was once the queen here! I really have no idea! After leaving Schönbrunn Palace, we walked around the garden on the back. Maybe it was because it was autumn, or maybe it was because the weather was not very good, the garden was too ordinary and there was nothing to see. After leaving Schönbrunn Palace, Yunluo and An Chuyu took the train to the West Station.
That is the main train station, where Yunluo and An Chuyu need to transfer to the subway. Arriving at the West Station, Yunluo and An Chuyu, who were already hungry, chose to buy something to eat first. Each of them bought a Mr. Li lunch box, which cost about 10 euros per person, and the taste was not bad. After eating and drinking, they started to head to the city center. They bought a subway ticket for 10 euros per person, and a full-day pass for 10 euros per person.
Then we went to Steffen Cathedral. Since the next day was Vienna's National Day, we unexpectedly saw a military performance on the square outside the Hofburg Palace. The Mozart statue and then went to the opera house and the theater. After eating hot noodles, we returned to the base early because it was too cold!
Today is the tenth day of the trip. I have never been on such a long independent trip before! I am a little proud when I think about it! It is said that the time was adjusted last night, and now there is a seven-hour time difference with China! I got up slowly and packed up. I went to the train station and started to go to the Czech town of CK. However, the information from Wien West Station told Yunluo.
There is no train to CK at the West Station, so they need to go to another train station to transfer. Yunluo didn't listen to him. She followed the route she checked yesterday and jumped on the train to Linz, ready to go to CK. Linz is the third largest city in Austria. Yunluo and An Chuyu stayed here for more than an hour. Because there was no train to connect. She surfed the Internet and went shopping in the supermarket.
Time passed quite fast. At 11:30, we finally got on the train to Ceske Budejovice. At 2:00, we arrived and changed to the train to CK! It must be said that the world is really small. Yunluo and An Chuyu met the Hong Kong couple they met on the train to Hallstatt the day before. At 3:00 in the afternoon, we finally arrived at the town of CK!
After getting off the train, the road was deserted! How could we get to the hostel? We originally planned to walk, but after looking at the surroundings, we decided to give up the idea of walking. There happened to be a few Czech teenagers next to us, so we quickly asked them how to get to Yunluo and An Chuyu's hostel. They kindly told Yunluo and An Chuyu the bus route they needed to take.
I thought everything would be fine once I got on the bus, but the challenge had just begun! The Czech bus driver's English was really, really hard to understand! Yunluo quickly took out the map and started talking to him, until he said "no problem" for no reason. Yunluo felt a little relieved.
But the uncle was very enthusiastic. Although there was a communication barrier, it was obvious that he was trying his best to communicate with Yunluo. When we were about to get off the bus, the uncle called Yunluo over. He showed Yunluo how to get off the bus, and instantly I felt that the image of Czech people became tall and majestic! We arrived at the hostel in just a few steps after getting off the bus. This time we stayed in a homestay.
The host of the B&B once again refreshed Yunluo's impression of Czech people. I don't know if it's because the host's sense of humor is too low, or Yunluo and An Chuyu always make her laugh, but she laughed all the way. So cute. The room is very warmly decorated, with a small open-air balcony, and the room is also super big, except that the geographical environment is a bit remote.
Yunluo's first impression of this hostel was excellent! After packing up, Yunluo and An Chuyu went out to look for scenery. It looked like good weather today. Although the sun was not out, the white clouds were shining. Yunluo's first impression of the town was fairy-tale-like, but the colors were not as bright as in the pictures.
In fact, pictures are deceiving, haha! After walking around for a while, there was nothing particularly exciting, but the Dijiao BBQ restaurant that they followed the guide to aroused Yunluo and An Chuyu's strong interest. However, they didn't have a reservation, so they had to wait until almost eight o'clock to eat. In the end, Yunluo and An Chuyu went to the Sihai City restaurant across the street and booked lunch at the BBQ restaurant tomorrow.
(In front of the Dijiao BBQ restaurant) When I walked to the Sihai City restaurant, it was full of Chinese people. Looking at the menu again, Yun Luo couldn't help but sigh at the prices here, they were really too cheap! A bowl of rice per person only cost more than 20 yuan, which is the price in Beijing! Along the way, this price is really exciting!
My stomach is growling with hunger, so I quickly start eating! After dinner, it was already dark, so I strolled to the hostel, carrying a breakfast worth three yuan, and ended the day's journey with satisfaction.
After getting up, I habitually looked out the window and was a little disappointed because the weather was not very good and a little gloomy. After breakfast, I wanted to check out, but unfortunately the landlord was not there. It seemed that she did not live here, so Yunluo and An Chuyu left her a note, explaining the situation and making an appointment to check out when I came back. After that, Yunluo and An Chuyu went out boldly.
I feel that CK is a town that doesn't need a map. There are not many streets, just a few crisscrossing each other. The only thing you need to do is to walk around and experience it slowly. In fact, there are many museums in CK, but they are not Yunluo's original intention to come here. Yunluo just wants to enjoy the moment of peace in this town that once escaped the fireworks of World War II.
Going out early has this benefit. There are almost no people on the streets. In such a quiet environment, I walked along the way, took photos along the way, and headed towards the castle. Until I reached a high point, overlooking the entire town, the winding river quietly passed through the town. The woods in the distance were red, yellow, green, and mottled with colors.
After looking down at the town, Yunluo and An Chuyu walked around the shops along the road. What attracted Yunluo the most were the various puppets. Although they were not very exquisite, the various images and decorations were full of creativity. When they were almost at the reservation time, Yunluo and An Chuyu walked to the barbecue restaurant and the three of them ordered a set meal including pork kneenee.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
With a vegetable salad and tuna, each with a drink, the total cost was only kronor, which is RMB. Yunluo was shocked again! This price is really affordable! Besides, the taste, the pork knee bone is roasted so crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fat but not greasy! It is much better than the roasted pork elbow I had in Germany last time! The key is that the price is not a little cheaper!
The vegetable salad with tuna also had a sour taste, which was just right to offset the greasiness of the pork elbow. After eating it all, I felt so satisfied! After the meal, I hurried back to get my luggage to check out. The landlady once again warmly welcomed Yunluo and An Chuyu. After saying goodbye to her, Yunluo and An Chuyu hurried to the bus station again. Fortunately, the bus was late.
Yunluo and An Chuyu just caught the bus and went to the train station. As soon as they arrived at the train station, they found that the train was about to leave. It was a close call. If it wasn't for the emergency, the next train would have to wait for two hours! I thought there was nothing to worry about after getting on the train, but who knew that the trains in this small place still depend on the odd and even numbers of the date. Today happened to be an odd number.
You can't transfer directly in Ceske Budejovice, but need to take a train to another train station for transfer. After another hassle, at least you arrive in Prague safely!
This is the city that Yunluo has been thinking about all along the way. I have seen many photos of Prague's yellow bricks and red tiles before, and I think Prague Castle is a fairy-tale existence. Although I know there is no wishing fountain in Prague Square, I can't help but want to find out. After a night of rest, I finally decided on the tour route of Prague, starting from the Dancing House and heading north along the river.
We went to Charles Bridge and Prague Castle. We took a photo of the out-of-place Dancing House and left in a hurry. The weather was sometimes sunny and sometimes cloudy. We strolled along the river and admired the buildings by the river. I don't know why, but I always felt that it was much better than Vienna. Looking at Charles Bridge and Prague Castle from afar, I felt an inexplicable excitement in my heart!
We walked and took photos along the way, visited small shops along the way, and finally arrived at Charles Bridge. It was beautiful, and the blue sky was just right, but there were too many people! I really liked the handicrafts on Charles Bridge, and I looked at them one by one. It took me almost half an hour to walk on this short bridge. It was even more beautiful to see Prague Castle from the bridge!
The Gothic bridge, with its Baroque sculptures, even pigeons couldn't help but stop! After crossing the bridge, we continued walking up the street towards the castle. Yunluo and An Chuyu were so tired of seeing all the souvenir shops along the way that they couldn't walk anymore. I don't know where I turned the wrong way, and I was almost at the top of the mountain, but I still hadn't seen the castle.
However, the small shops along the way also attracted Yunluo and Anchu. Gaochu looked down at Prague and felt that it was pretty good! After asking all the way, they finally arrived at Prague Castle after a long detour. In fact, Prague Castle does not refer to a castle, but a complex of buildings, including St. Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, and St. George's Church.
Golden Lane and other attractions. I bought a pass for the above four attractions at the information, and the student ticket was 100 kroner. St. Vitus Cathedral is a Gothic church, and the stained glass inside the church is the biggest attraction of the church. In comparison, the Old Palace and St. George's Church seem too ordinary! Finally, I went to Golden Lane and looked at the small house where the blacksmiths lived in the past.
Are they all so short? The doors are so small. No. 1 is Kafka's former residence! There is another viewing platform outside. Coming out of Prague Castle, crossing the Vltava River from the bridge north of Charles Bridge, arriving in Prague, preparing to go to the Old Town Square, and taking another photo of Charles Bridge from afar. Prague Square without the Trevi Fountain is still crowded, super crowded.
Along the way, I didn't feel that there were so many people at any scenic spot. It was full of Chinese people. There were Chinese groups everywhere. Yunluo and An Chuyu were less than meters away from the astronomical clock when they asked the policeman where the astronomical clock was. The policeman looked confused and embarrassed. In the photo below, Yunluo originally wanted to include the ground.
As a result, when I looked down a little further, I saw only heads of people, so I gave up. I asked for directions at the information station next to the astronomical clock and prepared to go to a restaurant not far away that was recommended by Qyer. I don’t remember the name, but it was the one that looked like a train compartment. It was really not that good, so if you don’t have anything to do, don’t go there. (~^~)
