The Rhine river is one of the most important waterway in Germany, and has a particularly high density of medieval castles along the valley. The best way way to see them is to take a cruise along the river. If you have used the Rail pass, the cruise comes free. We stayed at medieval town of Bacharach, which had remained unchanged over the years! There was a hostel located up the hill which is actually a castle. We initally wanted to stay there but too bad it was full. We were pretty disappointed.
It was here that we also met our Germans friends (Horst & Bill) who showed us tremendous hospitality, by bringing us out for dinner in a Russian restaurant.
