Heidelberg, at first glance- from the cobbled streets, historical landmarks & statues, castles, ruin facade, red and brown bricks of buildings to quaint alleys and vendors, made it look like any other historical cities we visited prior to Heidelberg itself. But just the idea of being in a 'never-visited-before' city made it a worth while experience. For instance, walking up the approximately three-hundred steep steps to visit Heidelberg Castle perched up on the hills was daunting but exhilarating, nevertheless. Not. We spent our time just walking along the streets of Heidelberg. Alas, the sun was peeking out and we could see everyone was appreciating that bit of ray and heat from the sun after the long stretch of winter. We had lunch at this quaint Indian Restaurant and ice creams afterward. We walked for a bit more and came six pm, took a train to Mannheim, a neighbouring city to meet up with Yoshiko and Sebastian, friendly and funny couple. Anyway, I'll leave you with pictures taken in Heidelberg and a bit in Mannheim.

Alrighty. That's Heidelberg and last post on Europe but not the least, will be about Trier, which was pretty much like Heidelberg. Then, it will be the end of my Europe trip post. For this time around. Because, I'm already planning for my next trip. But I shall not reveal it here yet. Wait till confirm then only say lah.
Till Trier, Tschuss..
