Section 955 Food always crosses races

The tent was filled with the aroma of beer, various roasted pork legs, and grilled sausages. Outside www.biquge.info tent is a carnival of rides, from thrilling roller coasters and pirate ships to classic bumper cars and nostalgic merry-go-rounds. Everywhere there are beautiful women and handsome men in beautiful Bavarian national costumes, and everywhere there are beautiful felt hats of different shapes.
Everywhere there were parade wagons in full costume, and pepper honey cakes everywhere. Due to the crowding and noisy inside the tent, it was really difficult to find a seat, so Yunluo finally chose to bask in the sun and drink beer in the open-air seat outside the tent to watch the scenery.
Oktoberfest, the world's most famous and grand folk celebration, began with the wedding of King Ludwig I of Bavaria and Princess Teresa in 1810.
In order to allow the citizens of Munich to share in the royal pleasures, King Maximilien I decided to hold a celebratory horse race on a meadow on the southwestern outskirts of the city, which has since been named Theresa Lawn. The following year, Ludwig, who loved to host events, continued the celebration with a new twist.
The event was so popular with the citizens of Munich that it has been preserved. As time passed, the last Jockey Club was cancelled, but the events of this carnival were eventually preserved. Later, due to the weather, the Oktoberfest was fixed on the last Saturday at the end of September every year and lasted for 16 days.
Two centuries later, the 16-day festival attracts more than 8 million visitors from all over the world each year and partyes all night long. For the ∠ ←, ww⊕w. also brewed a special beer, wiesnbier. At 11 a.m. on the first day of the carnival, the brewersparade kicks off the festival.
The parade starts from Sonnenstrasse and ends in the open square via Schwanthalerstrasse. Tourists from all over the world join the joyous procession along with the citizens of Munich dressed in festive costumes. At 12 o'clock sharp, the mayor of Munich presides over the keg opening ceremony in the beer tent, and the first beer always belongs to the governor of Bavaria. As the governor raised his glass and shouted "Cheers," music played in the beer tent and beer for the Oktoberfest began to sell.
Every year, the square will gather more than a dozen large tents set up by old beer farms, and the entire beer festival will consume 7 million liters of beer, eat 750,000 roast chickens, and eat more than 100,000 pork sausages. There are also plenty of grilled pork legs, grilled fish, and a variety of snacks and desserts.
It's late afternoon from Munich, and by the time we arrive in Rothenburg, it's already dark, and you won't find much of a medieval town other than the bumpy cobblestone paths.
After checking in, I heard the lively sound of gongs and drums outside the window, like the accompaniment of Yangge in the capital square. I couldn't bear the restless heart, put down my luggage and hurriedly went out, looking for a voice. Out of the hotel, walk along the alley in the direction of the lights. Not far away, a crowded square appeared.
The sound of gongs and drums had stopped at some point, and I saw a large crowd of people gathered in the middle of the square. Yunluo subconsciously glanced at his watch, eight o'clock in the evening. Yunluo, who had done his homework seriously, immediately confirmed his position, Yunluo was standing on the square in front of the city hall, and the group of onlookers must be tonight's night watchman city guide! (I didn't bring a camera.) )
In the Middle Ages, Rothenburg was guarded by night watchmen. Today, at eight o'clock every night, the night watchman still shows up on time on the town hall square. However, his job is no longer to keep vigil, but to take everyone on a night tour of the city.
The night watchman is still dressed as it was in the Middle Ages. A black trench coat with a candle flame and a strange-looking axe. The night watchman gave a humorous introduction to the self-fall and the duties of the medieval night watchman, and then led the group on a tour of the historic buildings in the area.
German cuisine has mixed reviews. Some people describe it as "hard to swallow and monotonous". Some people say that "drinking wine and eating meat in large chunks" is nothing more than the happiest thing in life. How, exactly? You can only appreciate it if you taste it for yourself.
When it comes to German food, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu think of pork knuckles, sausages, and wine. Bread, cheese and so on. Let's talk about wine first: the towns on the banks of the Rhine, Moselle, Main and Neckar are the main producing areas of Riesling wine, and there are large vineyards in Rüdesheim, where Yunluo and Yan Shenyu stayed.
Here while looking at the beautiful scenery on the banks of the Rhine, while tasting the best Riesling wines, Germany is relatively high latitude, the main grape variety is white grapes, but compared to neighboring France and Italy, German wine is unknown, perhaps because Germans love beer bars, it is said that the average German consumes 127 liters of beer per year.
But with only 23 litres of wine consumed, in a country known as the "Kingdom of Beer", the light, tasty and aromatic Riesling had to give in to the wind. When it comes to German beer, it's hard to drink it all the way, especially in Bavaria, where 34 glasses (about 2 liters) of beer a day is commonplace.
Compared to schwarz, Yunluo feels that the white beer here (weissbier) has a better taste than in China, and it is really a joy to have a drink in the Alpine lake and mountains.
German bread is the king of bread in the world, and its geographical location at the intersection of wheat and rye cultivation has created a unique diversity of German bread.
When I came to Yunluo, Germany, I learned that Germans take bread as breakfast, lunch, dinner, and supper, and every meal is inseparable from bread, and when I walk on the road, the air is full of the fragrance of toast.
Every morning when you come to the restaurant, all kinds of bread have been placed in the dining area, grab a basket, choose a few favorite breads, pair them with cheese and ham, have a cup of coffee, and start a healthy day.
Most of the bread in Germany is like a stone, the outside and soft on the inside, but this kind of bread is very strong after the mouth, and the more you eat it, the more fragrant it becomes. This kind of new flower bread is the first time Yunluo tasted, the bread is coarse salt, it looks very cute, the coarse salt slowly melts in the mouth, and the slightly salty taste is mixed with the milky aroma of the bread. You can't stop eating it.
German sausages Germany has more than 1,500 kinds of sausages, there are dozens of kinds from the breakfast every day, Yunluo can't distinguish the name and type of sausages at all, see what you like, take a piece to try, each taste is almost the same. But it's not exactly the same, in addition to breakfast, passing by the sausage stall in the afternoon, you can't help but have one, I can only say that it looks too appetizing.
German cheese knows that you have to go to France to eat cheese, but after many people go to Europe, they feel that French cheese is not as delicious as Germany. Yunluo is not a cheese lover, but sees soft cream cheese on the table. The hard cheese and the one with the shallots in it change every day, and finally I couldn't help but try a bite of "bril' cheese".
At first, I was a little uncomfortable because there was a slurry-like film on the outside, but as I continued to eat, the taste became more and more popular. Smooth and delicate. The milky aroma stays between your lips and teeth and won't go away for a long time, so if you're a cheese lover, you must come here to pack some home and enjoy it slowly!
German pork knuckle Pork knuckle also has a fundamental difference between southern and northern Germany. In the northern Berlin region, pork knuckles are marinated overnight in brine to allow the elbows to absorb the flavor, and are cooked in vegetable stock until the elbows are soft, and are usually served with sauerkraut and pea puree. Here's what you look at. The meat is pink.
Similar to the boiled meat of Yunluo and Yan Shenyu in China. But the southern Bavarian roast is more famous and is one of the must-have dishes in German beer halls, where it is generally cooked in a vegetable stock.
Then put it in the oven or barbecue oven to fry, in order to make the skin crispy, finally turn the oven to high temperature, and bake for more than ten minutes, then there will be a German roast pork knuckle with golden brown and crispy skin, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Having tasted two different kinds of elbows, Yunluo prefers this kind of boiled white, it looks fat. But there is no greasy feeling at all, and the meat is fluffy and melts in the mouth, and with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes, there is a touch of fragrance between the lips and teeth, which lingers for a long time, and with a large glass of beer, this is the German taste.
In addition to the five must-eat delicacies in Germany, there is also a German snack called currywurst, which has been used in Berlin's street food for 60 years and is now everywhere, where you can choose your favorite sausage, fry it and chop it, and cut a whole sausage into pieces.
Then drizzle with hot tomato sauce, sprinkle with curry powder, and serve with freshly baked fries, hot, how delicious, you will know after eating, the price is only 4 euros.
This trip due to the time is in a hurry, homework is not done enough, so in the food can not give you too much help, breakfast is the buffet provided by the hotel, Chinese food to go where, hungry, look at the good restaurant on the in, dinner 90% are stay in the hotel.
However, every hotel in Germany is like a restaurant, the level of the chef is very comparable, no one has disappointed Yunluo, although there are a few homework when they come out, but in the end because parking is inconvenient, or too tired, the time is too tight did not go, Yunluo posted these few restaurants that others have mentioned to be good.
I hope you will have the opportunity to enjoy the food. Heidelberg 101 Pork Chop really has 101 types of pork chop set. Füssen's knight-themed restaurant, the Rothenburg version of the grandmother's kitchen, and of course, Munich's Hitler's restaurant, in this half month, there are about 5.6 restaurants that make Yunluo more memorable: 1. Schonburg's castle restaurant The historical and cultural scenery of the Rhine River.
This time the accommodation in Europe Yunluo is still booked on booking, because the itinerary was determined ten days before departure, and met the National Day holiday, the city center, the lake view, the mountain view, are fully booked, fortunately Yunluo and Yan Shenyu self-driving, and finally the accommodation is booked a little bit away from the center of the town.
It is estimated that it will take more than ten minutes to drive, in exchange for the room is good, and the price is cheap, basically around 1000 yuan. Of course, Yunluo's favorite is Feisen's sommerhotel, especially recommended to everyone! The price is 1700 yuan (including breakfast).
When you come to Mainz, you can't miss the cathedral. Mainz Cathedral is one of the most ornate churches in Germany, also known as St. Martin's Cathedral, close to the historic center of Mainz and the pedestrian market square.
The 1,000-year-old Romanesque cathedral is the cathedral of the Catholic diocese of Mainz, one of the most important church buildings in Germany, and it is as important to Mainz as the Rhine Carnival.
This church is a famous Romanesque style building, known as a classic combination of classical beauty and mature beauty, pale red sandstone building, with an octagonal tower at the top, once experienced a real baptism of fire, due to the war and fire, the cathedral has been restored many times, when the clouds fall and Yan Shenyu goes, the top of the church's bell tower is still being restored.
The interior of the church is also pale red sandstone, without the delicacy and magnificence of Rococo, more solemn, even in the bustling bazaar, it seems to be a world away, even noisy children stepping into the church, will involuntarily slow down, lower their voices, and make a sincere prayer.
Ten minutes' drive from Mainz, you will arrive at Wiesbaden, another historic city on the other side of the river, chosen because the whole of Wiesbaden is a good place to enjoy life, with the oldest and most elegant spa in Europe, where you can definitely enjoy the best service and luxury.
This is the DB railway station, and the city has a rich history of more than two thousand years, dating back to the ancient Roman period. The Romans discovered the hot springs and built a bathhouse on the grass for their soldiers, hence the name Wiesbaden, which means bathhouse on the grass.
Wiesbaden is not very large, and through this green meadow, you will see a series of red buildings, with pointed towers reaching into the clouds, and Yunluo can't help but exclaim: "This must be the famous market church."
Park the car and walk through the square, the red church is set off by the blue sky and white clouds, which is very spectacular and eye-catching. The church is made entirely of red brick, the main building is the tallest building in Wiesbaden at 98 meters, and the market church is still largely unchanged.
The most scenic section of the route is in the middle of the Rhine Valley, from Mainz to Koblenz in Germany.
The river here is meandering and the water is crystal clear. Yunluo took this section as a key point of this tour, and did not want to miss the more than 50 ancient castles on both sides of the strait by boat, and did not want to miss the close entry into the ancient castle to find out.
