Godesberg Castle, Bonn
Last sunday, abah bawa mama dan anak pi jalan2 kat Bandar Bonn...bandar Bonn ni kira2 30 minit perjlnn ikut highway dr rumah kite org..asalnyer kami tak plan pun nak ke sana..plan asal mama ajak abah pi jalan2 kat tepi River Rhine dan bergambar, maklum le dah lama benar rasanyer tak ambik gambar kat tmpt tu, seingat mama kali terakhir bergambar kat situ masa Dik Nad baru berumur 2 tahun.. Tiba2 jer masa dalam kereta, abah kata jom kita pi Bonn, kita pi satu castle yg famous kat situ..mama pun sukeeee sgt..mmg abah nih selalu sgt dgn perangai "unpredictable" dia tu.... mama sebenarnyer dah lama pendam hasrat nak pi jalan2 tengok castle2 lama kat Germany nih..sebab mama selalu dengar citer dan tengok gambar fp kawan baik kat sini, Yus dan Hairi yg mmg suka pi lwt castle2 lama yg ada kat sini.

So sunday lepas kira hajat mama pi tengok salah satu old castle dah sampai le.. Godesberg castle nih skrg dah bercirikan traditional dan modern..sebab kat situ dah dibuka hotel dan restaurant utk pengunjung..dan satu yg paling menghappykan mama yg dah jadi mak buyung nih..mama tak payah risau panjat tangga kat castle tu...sebab kat Godesberg castle tu pun ada kemudahan lif..he..he.. Anyway masa hari tu we all tak berkesempatan utk panjat tangga castle tower tu sebab dah ditutup utk pengunjung until spring next year..byrn utk naik ke menara cuma €2 utk package parents bersama anak2...anyway mama dan anak2 memang happy hari tu sebab dapat tengok pemandangan bandar Bonn dan Lembah Rhine sejauh mata memandang dari atas terrace of Panorama cafe yg ada kat castle tu..

Approximately 70,000 people live in Bad Godesberg. Its landmark, the Godesburg Castle, is visible from afar. The tower of the castle, erected by the Cologne Archbishop Dietrich I in 1210, boasts an impressive view of the city, the hills of the Siebengebirge, the Rhine Valley, and the plain stretching towards Cologne. Today, the castle houses a hotel and a restaurant which also offers to its guests a splendid panorama view.

The Godesberg is one of the greatest military fortresses in the northern part of the Rhineland and, for a very long time, it was the preferred residence of the archbishops of Cologne. In the Cologne War against Archbishop Gebhard Truchsess von Walburg, who had become a convert to Protestanism, it was demolished by the troops of Archbishop Ernst of Bavaria. After being rebuilt once again, it was finally destroyed by the French in 1794.
