Beauty and Adventure in Big Bear Lake, California

Destinations

When you think of Big Bear Lake, you may think of a skiing, hot chocolate and chestnuts roasting on an open fire. But I can assure you that Big Bear has thrills for all seasons. I recently had the pleasure of exploring this beautiful Californian adventure land. A place so filled with the spirit of the Wild West and natural beauty, it was unlike anywhere I’d ever been before.

Getting There

As we drove towards Big Bear, I frequently felt like I was in an old western movie. Visions of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood dancing in my head. Later I discovered that Big Bear Lake was in fact a Hollywood favorite during the 30’s and 40’s. The likes of Lassie, Elvis, and Andy Griffith have all graced the streets of this beautiful mountain town.

Neuschwanstein Castle’s Grandeur in Germany

Just how grand and appreciated is Neuschwanstein Castle? Well, it’s been featured in a lot of films and has been the inspiration for the sleeping beauty castle, yes THE “Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle.” It’s visited by over 1.3 million people a year. Located at a rugged hill just above Hohenschwangau village, it was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as his personal refuge, but was opened in 1886 after his death. The castle was never finished, if it had been then it would have had over 200 interior rooms instead of 14. Three years was their estimation before it was finished, but since Ludwig II wanted everything to be perfect, it took longer and wasn’t finished even at his death 17 years later. Neuschwanstein Castle is well equipped with the modern technology of their time like toilets with automatic flush on every floor and even an air heating system for the entire castle. In the courtyard, you can find an astonishing inner garden and even as far as an artificial cave. Of course we can’t forget to mention the two story Byzantine style throne room, with paintings that depict angels, which ironically does not have a throne since Ludwig II […]
