River Rhine

 A little trip to river Rhine in Germany

A few weeks ago I went with a friend for a daytrip to Germany, we live 10 minutes from the border.

We drove to the city of Koblenz and from there on we followed the river Rhine. At Kaub we crossed the river by ferry.

Little castle in the river.

After this we went to Rudersheim, a small town, full of tourists.

 

Lovely houses

 

After a cold drink and some delicious pie we crossed the river again and go to Oberwesel.



Town hall

 

The statue of Siren Lorelei, she sits on a cliff above the Rhine, combing her golden hair. Distracting shipman with her beauty and song, which caused many of them to crash on the rocks.

An Afternoon in 's Hertogenbosch

Hidden below the old city is a canal network called the Binnendieze it used to be 22 kilometres long. It started out as a regular river, the Dommel, running through the city in medieval times but because there was not enough space in the city, people started building their houses and roads over the river.

In recent decades, the remaining six of the old waterway systems has been renovated, and it is possible to take a guided boat trip through it.
