Macau

Over Christmas Went to Macau, asides from the extensive growth of Casinos, and the famous cathedral that was bombed and only one facade left behind...I found this old style house that was open to the public. 3 story building, with high ceiling very airy and cool. Light Wells located in the center with drainage at the end..dividing the large room into two with equal lighting...

Weinnachtmarket

Stuttgart getting ready for the Christmasmarket






The Giant Nutcracker

The Rathaus (Town Hall) all lit up

Zurich

ZURICH during Winter 2007



Walking down
Bahnhofstrasse, world famous shopping street.

Grossmünster - The symbol of the city with its distinctive twin towers.

Fraumünster Church - The Fraumünster is well worth a visit, particularly to see the stained-glass windows by Marc Chagall.

Lake Zurich

Baden Baden

The City of Baden Baden
a few hour train'ing' from Stuttgart.

to see who better than Richard Meier
The Freider Burda Museum



Free standing walls. Free floating walls.
at least it almost seems like it.

Then the rest of the town...



My first onion dome church.
Yes, I heard there are much more these kirche in north east europe.



Such a beautiful day,
just want to dip your foot in the water.

Konstanz

Konstanz
located where 3 countries borders the lake.
Austria, Switzerland, and Germany.
Nonetheless France is not too far away from here also.
Took a boat to Meersburg...Small village.
Not so much to see. But Interesting indeed.








The Switzerland Toll, Border Not too far away.
Many people did cross border grocery Shoping.



I Guess, the Sun was to blame. so much for enjoying the view on the way to Meersburg.
























Meersburg Schloss.
Guessing that's an old sink!
