Regensburg
I would put this as the highlight of our 2024 summer adventure.
We had three days here and used it as a base for exploring the area.
It is a city in eastern Bavaria on the banks of the river Danube. 

A great Medieval city with a 2,000-year-old history. With World Heritage buildings.  We stayed at Elaya Hotel in the City Center.

Regensburg Cathedral (German: Dom St. Peter or Regensburger Dom), also known as St. Peter's Cathedral

 Catholic Church with its episcopal based in Regensburg.

River Danube

The locals meet up to check their social media.

Next to Regensburg Cathedral, the Stone Bridge is Regensburg's most famous landmark. Built in 1135. The Stone Bridge is considered a masterpiece of medieval architecture and is said to be the oldest preserved bridge in Germany. Reminds me of the Old bridge in Berwick upon Tweed. The bridge is now closed to traffic and has undergone extensive renovation to deal with the damage of centuries of traffic.

Despite repeated bombings in World War II, Regensburg sustained little damage, and most of the city’s medieval buildings survived

Wet wet wet on Wednesday night. Thunder and lightning.

Lightning in the sky around Ragensburg

Regensburger wurst is a German sausage originating from the city, where it was invented in the late 19th century.

Beautiful Skyline

Regensburg's train station is situated to the south of the old part of the city

We stayed five minutes walk from the station. We used it to get to Straubing for beer festival. All good Bavarian fun

The station is at the end of our street.
