WURZBURG AND BAMBERG GERMANY

2 Lovely towns.

Bamberg is in Bavaria Germany, on the river Regnitz. A town with nine breweries. Large part of the town is a UNESCO
Hertiage Site. The old Town Hall is a strange building on the bridge. The church of St. Jacob is from the 11th-12th century. I stayed two nights in this lovely town. I arrived by train from Wurzburg 69km away.----------------------------BAMBERG  GERMANY.        I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights.
