One of the most notable features of the church is the “Männleinlaufen”, a mechanical clock that commemorates the Golden Bull of 1356. The clock was installed in the church in 1506.

I believed the “ladies” love to shop in Globus Schwandorf. It was to consecutive times now since we went shopping in Globus, a big supermarket in Schwandorf. You simply have most everything here from health and beauty, acne products, shoes, clothing, kitchenware, grocery items, electronics, plants and flowers, books and so many many more. This is the reason why the ladies keep on coming back here. I will see if we are going there again this coming week.
Happy weekend everyone. It is time to slowly sign-off now! It was again another long day for me.

Freystadt is a town in the district of Neumarkt Upper Palatinate in Bavaria, Germany. It is located near the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal. We had a sightseeing in some small towns of Neumarkt and Freystadt was one of the towns we visited.
This town is a historical one when you will see the old buildings and the town towers, the Unteres Tor and the Oberes Tor (one is in the image here), you can say that it has historical significance. These two towers (Tor in German) are the main sights of this town.
Every month of July, a festival called Stadttorfestes (City gate festival) is being celebrated annually.

Who tell the crocus to come back every spring time? Yes, they are here now blooming in our garden. I have been waiting for them for some months and happy to have them back again. I only have three kinds of crocus growing in our garden. I am wondering if there are such a kind called Black and Mild crocus. I haven’t heard one yet. Here are two kinds of crocus in my image here, a yellow and lavender colored ones. I am happy to see them everyday. I can’t also wait till the tulips come. Have a lovely weekend everyone!

The Heidelberger Schloss or the Heidelberg Castle is the famous landmark of Heidelberg City. It is also a famous ruin in Germany. The earliest castle structure was built before AD 1214 and later expanded into 2 castles circa 1294; however, in 1537, a lightning-bolt destroyed the upper castle. The present structures had been expanded by 1650, before damage by later wars and fires.
