When we arrived at the destination, we got off the car, today's weather was also good, sunny, the sun was warm and shining down, the weather was good, and you could take a lot of photos, Robin and Xia Yuxiang walked in front, Robin explained to everyone, he was erudite, knowledgeable, deeply loved by everyone, and not at all restrained, very affinity, Qu Lihua did not understand anything, you can also ask Robin, Robin has no frame at all, there are questions to answer, the answer is also very clear, it is really worthy of being a foreign student who went to China to study, has a certain cultural connotation, behaves decently, and is also very self-containedγ
"Look, this is Neuschwanstein Castle, let me first introduce to you, Neuschwanstein Castle full name Neuschwanstein Castle, we simply call it Neuschwanstein Castle, this is a late 19th century building, located in the southwest of Bavaria, Germany, adjacent to the older Neuschwanstein Castle, about 4 kilometers from the town of FΓΌssen, not far from the border between Germany and Austria. β
After introducing the age and location of the building, Robin will introduce the architectural features of Neuschwanstein Castle in detail.
"Neuschwanstein Castle is a symbol of Germany, it is the prototype of Disney Castle, also known as Cinderella Castle, built in 1869 as one of the residences of King Ludwig II of Bavaria. β
Qu Lihua was very curious and asked Robin for advice, "Is there a story about the name of this castle?"
Robin nodded and smiled, "Everyone knows that the West has a high praise for swans, they regard swans as a kind of arrogant and noble animals, there are many legends about swans, people have also created a lot of operas with the theme of singing the praises of swans, in the West, people like swans very much, and have deep feelings for swans, this emotion is expressed in works of art, such as operas, paintings, and some works of art, and swans are also named after buildings to reflect the uniqueness of architecture." β
"The name of Neuschwanstein Rock Castle comes from the Middle Ages, the legend of the swan knight, everyone sees that this castle is built on the mountain, the cloud and mountain fog cage, where you can enjoy the distant scenery, climb high and overlook, it is still very good. β
Opposite the Neuschwanstein Castle is the summer residence of the king's childhood, the old Swan Rock Castle, the high mountain plains and the great lake shaped the romantic and fairytale character of the young king, and in this pale yellow old Swan Rock royal palace gave birth to the new hall of romantic fairy tales opposite. β
The white building is also representative of the German historical architectural style, Neuschwanstein Castle was founded by a king of Bavaria, Ludwig II, this king was unruly but full of artistic temperament, he personally participated in the design of this castle, there are a large number of German swan sculptures, he dreamed of building the castle into a fairytale world. β
It took a lot of effort to make the castle a famous tourist attraction in Germany, and he certainly didn't expect it to be like this at the time, but he just wanted to collect the treasures he liked, many of which he had his personal hobbies, and keep some works of art. β
"When I see some works of artistic value, I buy them at a high price, treasure them, and become a romantic fairytale world. β
Meng Wenjie nodded, "Napoleon is also like this, he buys whatever art he likes when he sees it, and treasures it in the Louvre, but we ordinary people also have such a habit, generally go out to travel, and if you see something good outside, you buy it home and treasure it at home, those art collections can represent your aesthetics and values, and what you like can be reflected in your treasured things." β
Head Xia Yuxiang nodded, "Hehe, I like to treasure books, and I don't have any valuable treasures at home except for books!"
Meng Wenjie said: "Head Xia should also buy some tourist souvenirs, take them home to treasure, buy a painting, put it for a few years, maybe in a few years, the value of this oil painting will rise, and he will make a fortune." β
Head Xia Yuxiang smiled, "Hahaha, there is no hope of getting rich in this life, and it will be dull, I have no hope, you are still young, hope is pinned on you, you work hard, maybe you will surpass me." β
"Hahaha......" Everyone was amused by Captain Xia Yuxiang, and then walked forward, Robin continued to introduce everyone.
The white castle rises high on a hill and is surrounded by mountains and lakes, and the scenery varies throughout the year.
Ludwig II, the creator of Neuschwanstein Castle, created a world of beauty and left a legacy for the world, and future generations came to admire and admire his art.
In Swan Castle, there are many rooms, and it is even more impressive to walk in.
Meng Wenjie sighed, "It's good to be rich, build a castle by yourself, arrange it however you want, and whatever artwork you like, you can buy it back at a high price and treasure it in your castle, this castle is very beautiful." β
Qu Lihua nodded, "Yes, it's really good, this castle is really the same as the name, the outer wall is white, it is located in a relatively flat place on the mountain, and there are green trees next to it, all kinds of plants, it looks full of vitality, and it is really unusual to decorate this castle." β
Robin smiled, "This castle was built by Ludwig II, at that time, although he did not have the talent to govern the world, but in the construction of castles and collection of treasures, he is still remembered by the world, Disneyland Sleeping Beauty Castle and many modern fairy tale castles are also inspired by Neuschwanstein Castle, it looks so magical that it attracts a large number of tourists to explore, becoming one of the most visited castles in Europe." β
"Let me tell you about some of the personal experiences of Ludwig II, although he was a king, but it was not all smooth sailing, we ordinary people always think that the king has no worries about food and clothing all his life, can live in a castle, fine clothes and fine food, a group of servants to serve, what he wants, he can get what he wants, everything comes true. β
In fact, this is not the case, Ludwig II was disillusioned with his cousin, his love life was blank, and at the age of 22, he suddenly announced the dissolution of his marriage to Princess Sophie of Bavaria two days before the wedding, and he has not married since then. β
"Ah, how can this be?" Qu Lihua was a little puzzled, "Why did you never marry and be so rich, it's a pity." β
Meng Wenjie smiled, "It seems that this king has quite a personality, he refuses to marry a woman he doesn't love, he wants a woman he likes, if he can't get it, then he would rather lack it, you know, if you forcibly hold a wedding with a woman you don't love, forcibly live together, and have a bad temper and personality, how painful is it?"
