Neuschwanstein's Palace.






Neuschwanstein is one of the most famous palaces and castles in the world.
It is located in the Alps in Bavaria, Germany, in a magnificent landscape, on the top of a hill.
The palace was comissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria. The Castle was built Richard Wagner's honor and many rooms in the castle's interior were inspired by Wagner's compositions.
The construction of the Neuschwanstein castle began in 1869. But Ludwig II wanted the castle to be perfect, so the immense building was not finished even at Ludwig's death in 1886, when the building  was opened to the paying public.
This palace has appeared in several films and this fairytale look of the Neuschwanstein castle inspired Walt Disney to create the Magic Kingdom.
