Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Qasimi - Perhaps the "Philosopher's Trail" is the most beautiful hiking trail in Germany and Europe in general, and it is the most important thing you can go through in the German city of Heidelberg, where it combines history and romance and takes you between the alleys of the old town and the curves of beautiful nature.
The city of Heidelberg is one of the beautiful German cities, located on the banks of the Neckar River in the southwest of the country in the state of Baden-Württemberg, and it is only a 45-minute drive from Frankfurt International Airport.
Not only does Heidelberg stand out for its famous castle and the River Neckar, but its Baroque buildings and cobblestone streets in the old town make it among Germany's most romantic cities, and it's also a science city with the country's oldest university.
Heidelberg Castle was built during the Middle Ages and was the main residence of the most powerful German princes during 5 centuries, until it was destroyed in 1693 AD, but the city of Heidelberg continued to play an important role in German history.
In addition to the castle, the city is famous for the picturesque nature surrounding it, especially on both sides of the Neckar River, as well as its beautiful bridge that extends over the river, and among the buildings of the old town there are many hotels, restaurants, cafes, and tourist services.
Tourists can join boat tours across the river to see the city from a different perspective. Heidelberg fleet boats and ships are the best boats for enjoying river cruises as they go back and forth to the beautiful city of Neckarsteinach.
There are many tourist places that you can go to in the city, such as the Zoo and the Neckar River stadiums. You can also take a mountain train or join the hiking trails and wander among the forests and picturesque nature.
