Hey guys!

As mentioned yesterday, we were today in Braubach.
First we walked through the rose garden. But at the moment nothing is blooming here...



In the center of the rose garden that is maintained by a private club, is a war memorial too. And in the background you can see the Marksburg. A very nice castle from the 13th century.



The war memorial has been built for the victims of the Franco-German war in 1870/71. Here you can see me again in front of:



Here is a picture with me at the fountain in the rose garden.



Here are two pictures of the Rhine plants:





Then we go (only known by the locals) to a lookout point.
From here you have a beautiful view over the Rhine Valley:







Finally the Marksburg again.
It's the only medieval castle of the Middle Rhine that has never been destroyed. With its current form it is considered the medieval castle and as such is a model for many fantasy castles, especially as toy castles.
The Japanese found the Marksburg so well that they have rebuilt the castle in its original size! You can see the copy since 1996 on the Japanese island of Miyako.
I'm impressed.
So is the last picture once again me before the panorama of the Rhine Valley and the Marksburg:



I hope that we can do a trip to the German Corner in Coblenz at the weekend. Then I have seen enough and I look forward to my next host 

Cya soon!
