Karlovy Vary an einem grauen Oktobertag"},"content":{"rendered":"

We visit the city of Karlovy Vary in the Czech Republic. Dine still knows this city from her childhood. We find it has become a rather nice place with many tourists that wander from hot spring to hot spring despite the gray october drizzle. The city is known for its many hot mineral springs that are situated within the colonades of the city center. We join the many international tourists in tasting the many springs – but just as medicine usually tastes, yuck! Whatever, still lots of fun \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Wir besuchen die Kurstadt Karlovy Vary in Tschechien, welche Dine aus Kindertagen kennt. Wider Erwarten finden wir eine sehr adrette Stadt mit vielen Touristen vor, welche sich ungeachtet des grauen Oktober-Nieselwetters von Quelle zu Quelle schieben. Denn Karlsbad ist bekannt f\u00fcr seine hei\u00dfen Mineralquellen, die sich eingebettet in sch\u00f6nen Kollonaden durch die Altstadt ziehen. Wir reihen uns ein in den Touri-Reigen und kosten flei\u00dfig die verschiedenen W\u00e4sserchen – doch genau wie die meiste Medizin schmecken sie nicht sonderlich gut. Aber was solls \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

\"The <\/a>
The Kalsberg springs spring in many different ways. This hot one looks exceptionall good in the cold time of year.

Die Karlsberger Mineralquellen sprudeln auf verschiedenste Weise. Diese warme Quelle sieht in der kalten Jahreszeit besonders sch\u00f6n aus. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"Mark <\/a>
Mark tests the water temperature, a cozy hot!

Mark testet geich mal die Wassertemperatur, angenehm warm! <\/div> <\/div>

\"Karlsberg <\/a>
Karlsberg is famous for drinking cures. We of course have a cup with us and try out each spring to stay healthy. At some springs one even has to stay in line and wait for one’s turn.

Karlsberg ist eine Kurstadt und bekannt f\u00fcr Trinkkuren mit Quellwasser. Wir haben ein Becherchen dabei und kosten \u00fcberall mal – um gesund zu bleiben! An manchen Quellen steht man sogar Schlange. <\/div> <\/div>

\"But <\/a>
But it’s not very tasty. Dine rather fills her cup at the Beer Spa (and yes it’s an actual beer filled spa!!!)

Lecker ist allerdings anders. Dine macht den Becher lieber hier im Bier Spa voll \ud83d\ude00

\"Karlsberg <\/a>
Karlsberg and it’s colonades. This is the M\u00fchlbrunnen colonade.

Karlsberg und seine Kollonaden, hier die M\u00fchlbrunnenkollonade. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"A <\/a>
A colonade spirit

Ein Kollonadengeist! <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"Between <\/a>
Between the many columns lie some of the many springs that must be bubbling since a long time.

Zwischen den S\u00e4ulen finden sich verschiedene Quellen, die wohl schon lange vor sich hin sprudeln. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"Especially <\/a>
Especially when one considers the thick layers of minerals at each fountain.

Zumindest wenn man die mineralischen Ablagerungen im Quellbecken etrachtet \ud83d\ude42 <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"The <\/a>
The snake spring is the nicest spirng in the park colonade.

Die Schlangenquelle ist die f\u00fcr uns sch\u00f6nste Quelle in der Parkkollonade. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"Like <\/a>
Like a horse and carrage…Even in the gray time of year many tourists roam the place.

Kutschfahrt gef\u00e4llig? Trotz der grauen Jahreszeit wimmelt es hier nur so von Touristen. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"In <\/a>
In the evening light: The Russian Othodox church St. Peter and Paul.

Im Abendlicht: Die russich-orthodoxe Kirche St. Peter und Paul. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"After <\/a>
After a nice gulash with kn\u00f6del we head back to camp. On the top of the mountain is our camp spot and thanks to daylight savings it gets darker even earlier than what we were used to. So we get a free night hike. Remember all those fallen trees???

Nach einem Wildgulasch mit Kn\u00f6deln machen wir uns auf den R\u00fcckweg. Oben auf dem Berg ist unser Campingplaz und da es dank der Zeitumstellung nun wieder fr\u00fcher dunkler wird, erleben wir noch eine Nachtwanderung. Ihr erinnert die umgefallenen B\u00e4ume?? <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"Wildlife? <\/a>
Wildlife? The “Hirschsprung” is only a statue.

Noch mehr Wild? Der “Hischsprung” ist nur in Stein gemeiselt… <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"There <\/a>
There are many viewpoints scattered around the hills on our way back.

Auf unserem R\u00fcckweg liegen viele Aussichtspunkte mit Blick auf die Stadt. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>

\"The <\/a>
The Hotel Imperial towers over the city. I bet this was a model for the Grand Budapest Hotel.

Das Hotel Imperial thront \u00fcber der Stadt. Es erinnert uns irgendwie an das Grand Budapest Hotel. <\/div> <\/div>

\"The <\/a>
The Karlsbad wafers are not to miss! Originally baked in Karlsbad and with spring water!

Die Karlsbader Oblate!n d\u00fcrfen nat\u00fcrlich nicht fehlen! Nur echt, wenn in Karlsbad und mit Karlsbader Mineralwasser gebacken! <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
