Earlier today I reread the guidebook to the King Ludwig Way walk I did some years back. The walk ends at the castle, which I visited at the same time - going there was pretty much the reason I did the walk to begin with! I picked up this little book as a souvenir, so I thought I may as well reread it and log it here at the same time as the other. It's an enjoyable brief overview of the castle's history and rooms, but as beautiful as some of the photographs are, they just don't hold a candle to seeing all that magnificent artwork up close and in person.

An brief look at King Ludwig II of Bavaria and his castles. The pictures are wonderful, but it would be nice to see more details especially of the paintings. The writing was somewhat clunky at times and I can’t help but wonder at the means of translation used. Overall a decent little guide.

A short guide book style, but very detailed and with full and half page colour photos of the details of the interior rooms
