Photography Tour in Strasbourg Area
The best photos of Strasbourg Area aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Haut-Koenigsbourg Castle will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Alsace Wine Route for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
Beyond Strasbourg's famous Petite France quarter, the Alsace Wine Route winds through 170 kilometers of vineyards, half-timbered villages, and hilltop castle ruins. Villages like Riquewihr, Eguisheim, and Kaysersberg look like illustrations from a fairy tale, with flower-bedecked houses in pastel colors lining cobblestone streets. The Alsatian cuisine blends French and German traditions.
