Since all my weekend plans had flopped I thought of going to Hiedelberg on the following saturday.It is about 16 minutes from Mannheim by train.My first impression of Hiedelberg was that it is a very beautiful city, with lots o greenery, old buildings and stone paved narrow streets.My colleagues had told me to visit the castle if I was going to Hiedelberg. I took the steps to reach the castle. By the time I reached the top I was gasping for breath.I realised only then that there was a bus which could have taken me directly to the castle by a different route :(
The castle is upon a hill , very close to the Neckar river. The view from the top is excellent, I could see the entire city spread on both the banks of the Neckar.The castle had collapsed on one side and some restructuring work was going on on some sides.Behind the castle was a route to the city through the woods.I took the route to reach the main marketplace.I did some shopping there and took some time to explore the city.
At about 4 'o' Clock , I took the tram from Hiedelberg to Mannheim. Eventhough this took me 55 minutes to reach Mannheim, it was a nice slow ride passing through the fields on both sides and stopping at stations never heard of before.
