Founded in 1869, Neuschwanstein Castle is located on a small peak in the suburbs of Fussen, a small town on the southern border of Germany.

Sightseeing highlights

Disney Sleep

The prototype of the Beauty Castle, Neuschwanstein Castle, is hidden in the green forest, surrounded by a lake. The castle has white walls and blue roofs. The outer walls are made of marble. With a medieval atmosphere. It is precisely because of this fairy-tale temperament that it later became the prototype of the Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland and the scene of the ballet "Swan Lake".

The beauty of the four seasons of the dream castle

The king of Bavaria, inspired by the musical "Swan Knight", spent 17 years building the castle, paying great attention to the landscape changes of the surrounding vegetation during construction to ensure that no matter in which season, from which angle it is viewed, Castles are beautiful. Therefore, from the green mountains and clear waters in summer to the silver wraps in winter, Neuschwanstein Castle always attracts tourists from all over the world.

Sophisticated interiors

The castle not only has an outstanding exterior appearance, but its sophisticated "inner beauty" is equally impressive. The interior of the castle is richly decorated, and one of the wood-carved beds took 14 carpenters two years to complete. There are also many swan-themed decorations. From murals, door handles to bathtubs, you can see the beautiful figures of swans. The more brilliant is the Imperial Hall: on the huge ceiling, the blue sky is dotted with brilliant stars, the floor is covered with mosaics of plants and animals, and the murals on the walls depict scenes from the opera "Tan Hauser". A huge golden crown hangs in the hall, symbolizing the supreme imperial power.

Elegant and romantic palace concerts

Today, every September during the golden season, a week-long palace concert will be held in the famous Castle Opera Hall, allowing people to experience the nobility, elegance and romance of royal life.

Visiting Guide



There are three ways to get to the castle to the castle: take a shuttle bus, take a horse-drawn carriage or go on foot. Most people will choose to take the shuttle bus, get off the bus, and then walk for a short distance to Neuschwanstein Castle. On the way, there is a viewing platform to overlook another castle - Hohenschwangau Castle. You can also take a carriage to the castle. In addition to enjoying the picturesque scenery along the way, the humorous coachman will also tell you the legendary stories that happened here. After getting off the carriage, you only need to walk a short distance to the entrance of the castle. If you don’t want to wait in line for the ferry bus, or you like outdoor sports, you can also hike to Neuschwanstein Castle.

On the way, you can take pictures of Neuschwanstein Castle from an overlook, and there are relatively few tourists. The Marienbrücke is located near the end of the uphill bus. This 100-meter-high bridge is suspended between two cliffs. The bottom of the bridge is spliced with wooden boards, and when you step on it, it will float up and down slightly. You can take pictures of the famous postcard angle of Neuschwanstein Castle here. If it is too early to visit when you arrive at the station, you can go to Marianne Bridge to take pictures of the beautiful scenery of Neuschwanstein Castle. After noon, the bridge is full of people.

Entering the interior of the castle must follow the official tour guide. The tour guide provides English and German services. You can also choose to use the audio guide (with Chinese version), but it must also be controlled by the tour guide. After the visit, you can take a break in the cafe inside the castle. Surrounding Attractions After descending from Neuschwanstein Castle, you may wish to go boating on the Alpsee Lake (Alpsee), which is called "Swan Lake" by many people at the foot of the mountain, and enjoy the beautiful lake and mountains.
