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)

Neu-Schwanstein Castle (almost broke my tongue)... translates as SWAN STONE. In 1869, it began to be built at the behest of King Ludwig 2. Relatively recently. After they forgot Napoleon's campaign, it turns out. Gothic style. On the mountain ... and it's not so easy to get there, although there is a road, but going uphill, even on the road, is not an easy task. They offered to ride in a carriage with a horse... they refused. We decided to feel the beauty of the moment with our feet. And how evil the snow fell at that time.
The castle is not big. It is organized as a museum: a bedroom, an office, a ceremonial hall and a dining room. We went somewhere else. In general, everything is fleeting and there is little left in my memory, except ... a snack at the end. A small buffet. We got sparkling wine, rolls and broth. Everything that happened at that moment. By the way, the castle has become a Disney prototype. Which is why it is associated with a fairy tale.
