Villa of the King of Bavaria on the Danube

Uploaded: October 07, 2010

Description

This is one of the more beautiful modern but still Gothic style architectures in Regensburg and is the Villa of the King of Bavaria on the Danube. Fortunately I was able to make this trip before the terror alerts and the terrible pollution (red alkaline sluge) that recently occurred on the Danube closer to Budapest.

What a stunning architectural capture and building this is Emile! I don't think the term Villa is all that appropriate for a dwelling of this magnitude!
You certainly saw some amazing sights on your trip! #8953967

Thanks John and Patrick. It was a nice trip indeed. We could not make the same trip today due to the terrorist threats and the red sludge pollution that just got dumped into the Danube. #8953980

At least I got there before the toxic sludge. Thanks Bobby and Patti. I will be in the canyons of lower Pecos capturing Rock Art Pictographs all next week. Rock on my friends. #8956819

Hi Emile;
I walked in during a news report on the toxic sludge. Very unfortunate.
Very beautiful during your visit.
