It translates as the New Swan Stone. Of course, the decoration is not Winter))) but this is an incredible/fabulous/magical place that is so inspiring!!! There you have to propose to your princess (And there's an Old Castle nearby, more modest, where the crowned descendants of the king still live, half of it is open, and to complete the experience, it's better to start the tour there). In Neuschwanstein, in Wagner's room, you look out the window and begin to understand his strange music. Thanks to Disney, the whole world knows the castle, he captured it in cartoons.
And, yes, nearby in the forest is the very Swan Lake that once inspired Tchaikovsky!
The town of Schwangau (Swan area), which is nearby, is good for its thermal baths, so spending 2-3 days in these places is unforgettable and magnificent!

The view is amazing, be sure to take a tour on the castle's website (preferably 2 months in advance, they are sold out very quickly) you can take beautiful photos from the balcony and it is expensive / rich inside. On the tour, they give an audio guide with a choice of language (there was Russian). We arrived about 3 hours before closing time, there were not many people. They went up the hill on a cart with horses (there was a bus, but there was a longer queue).

A beautiful castle! An excellent location for shooting good views of nature, two castles of Louis the 14th (like this room of the reigning person), a beautiful waterfall in the gorge, swan lake (yes, that very lake!). Neuschwanstein Castle is located on a mountain, you can only get to the parking lot a mile from the castle itself. A rather steep, ornate road leads up, about 1.5-2km. Tourist layout: first, you stand in an hour-long queue at the bottom and take a ticket, and only after you find out that it's far and difficult for you to go) but for a coin, after standing in about the same queue, you can get on a horse-drawn cart pulled by a powerful horse (or two, I don't remember anymore) you will be taken to the castle itself. I've been there three times, but it broke me to stand on a horse, and even pay for it, especially since gorgeous photo spots open along the way, there are benches where you can relax at every turn of the road, and most importantly, a prize awaits you at the finish: a branch of the Hofbrohaus!))) a 10-dollar knuckle and a delicious HB beer! On Christmas days, I also remember drinking mulled wine either at the end of the journey or in the middle... I do not remember) The castle itself is large inside, but unfinished, preserved in this unfinished form (in fact, Louis did not complete the decoration, as I understood, either died, or went to Rostov to live after the coup in Bavaria). An ordinary Bavarian very large castle. But there is a secret location to the right of the castle: the passage is closed, but you can go around the forest, and you get to the place above the castle: the bridge over the waterfall! It takes your breath away when you stand there, now I remember how the legs gave way on it))) From the bridge, you can contemplate a magnificent view of Swan lake, which was inspired by Tchaikovsky. Yes, the castle itself, according to legend, inspired Walt Disney to create the logo of his studio) But this is not accurate))) You need to pick photos from the disk, sorry, it breaks, as well as waiting for a horse😁😁😁
I advise everyone to go there if possible. There's also a gorgeous road from Munich, the lake at the foot of the Alps just shocked me with its beauty. In general, you understand me)
