#fallingforfall A Short stop to Oberammergau On our way to visit some famous castles in Germany, my husband and I enjoyed our short visit to the beautiful and quaint town of Oberammergau. This place, which is surrounded by the mountains of Bavarian Alps that sets a charming foliage, is said to be best known for its wood carvings as well as its elaborately painted buildings. But more than that, Oberammergau is famous for its centuries old tradition of staging Passion plays - its 5 hr production stages the life, crucifixion and death of Jesus - every 10 years.  We hope to be back and catch on of these performances someday 😊🍂🍁. #wanderingme #ijustwander

#See the Earth in an instant We heard driving for about an hour out of Munich to get to this place It is a very famous tourist attraction for locals on weekends, but it seems not so famous among foreigners😳 There are many different recreational facilities there, and it is even more of a ski resort in winter when it is on the mountain side⛷️ We took the cable car and got up to the top then said this thing like a tall truck washed back down the mountain There will be a handrail to control the speed when you are not on the car. If you like excitement, you can go very fast. Of course, there must be no one in front of you to stop you, because it is the same track😂 But there are advantages to going down slowly, in that you can enjoy the view down the mountain If you have children, you might as well come and play ❤️

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Oberammergau is a small town with a population of about 5,000 people located in Garmisch-Partenkirchen district in Bavaria, southeastern Germany. It is a beautiful village with rows of beautiful houses painted with frescoes, making the whole village seem like a museum. There are many shops selling the famous wooden carved dolls, and you can enjoy shopping for Christmas ornaments and strolling around the village. It is also famous for the "Passion Play" that is performed once every ten years by all the villagers, and costumes are on display in the theater. It began in 1634 as a way of giving thanks to God for being spared from the plague epidemic of 1632. The play is performed by amateurs, and only town residents are eligible to perform, but the splendor and grandeur of the play is extraordinary, and the festival, which is held only once every ten years, attracts tourists from all over Europe and the world. I went there as part of a day trip bus tour to Neuschwanstein Castle, and it was really nice to see the idyllic scenery of the pastureland surrounded by the Alps and the beautiful German villages. It's a bit difficult to get to, but if you have the chance, please go.

In Bavaria, it is very common to paint colored murals on the walls of the house. But in Oberammergau, I think that myopia has been popular in this town, so people have to draw fairy tales and religious stories on the outer walls of the house to see. Or, God used to come here to treat the whole town as a studio and treat each house as a canvas. Now, in this small town called Oberammergau, every house is like wearing gorgeous clothes. Each house can tell a story with a beautiful appearance. The whole town is like a mural museum. This quaint town is surrounded by a wide valley surrounded by the Black Forest and the Almere Alps with snow on the top of the mountain. The town centre is full of traditional painted houses and woodcarving shops. Upper Ammerga is also famous for its complex woodcarvings. The workshop is spread throughout the town.

The German pastoral always makes people feel different. Although it is a rural land, it always gives a very regular feeling. It is like a planned green city, a regular grass slope, an isometric fence. The neat shrubs and the benches from time to time must be in a good view. There will always be a log cabin or barn in each landscape and a strange tree. I don't know if the Germans are interested in it, or the tacit understanding of everyone. In short, walking in the fields of Germany is always a very comfortable experience.

Oberammergau is famous for its 10th annual Passion of the Passes, which has developed the surrounding tourism industry. Most of the tourists here are rushing passengers.
