New Day
Just north of the Austrian border lies the Bavarian town of Fussen steeped in over 700 years of history, from its roots as a Roman trading fort to its present-day status as a nearly secret Alpine holiday escape. Situated on the southern end of the Romantic Road, the medieval town center is framed by the majestic Alps, towering above the banks of the river Lech and surrounding lake region.
I was particularly taken in with the cobblestone town square filled with quaint shops, beautiful flowering plants, lampposts and welcoming chairs. The vibrant colours and neat tidy appearance of the market place, such an inviting picturesque place to forget your time in history and meet the friendly locals.
