Heidelberg on the river Neckar, Germany

If that"s not a postcard motif, what is? Here is a beautiful view of the city of Heidelberg, Germany, which sits majestically on the banks of the Neckar. The charming old town beckons with winding streets and historic buildings, while Heidelberg Castle rises high above the city and offers a breathtaking panorama. The Neckar, a tranquil river, winds through the city and offers scenic views from the waterfront promenades and bridges. The Neckar meadow invites you to linger and offers an idyllic retreat for walks and picnics.
