Yesterday Ragnar took me with him to Ulm city. He had to give a lecture there and offered me to go with him... I'm really lucky hahaha
Ulm located on the borders with between B-W and Bayern. It's famous with Ulm Minster. Minster church has the tallest steeple in the world, really high!
This city is a birthplace of two famous people, one is Jasmin :P (from ifa staff and Anna's colleague) and the other is ....Albert Einstein! Yes, Yes, Einstein himself!
Ok, let's stop writing and see pictures :)

| Leaving Stuttgart, Ulm is about 84 km far from us |
 |
| Landscape is Wonderful |
 |
| I like the view :) |
 |
| In the tunnel :D |
 |
| ..annnnd just after :P |
 |
| ULM.. Finally :) |
I left Ragnar to prepare his lecture and I went to Minster church. In my way to there I passed by Ulm public library 'Zentralbibliothek' and Ulm town hall 'Das Rathaus', such a beautiful building ..piece of ART! WUNDERBAR!
 |
| Ulm public library, beautiful modern design at night with lights on..WOW |
 |
| Walls painting and writing tell Ulm city history |

 |
| Just wow.. u can stare the whole day! |
 |
| Piece of Sweeeeet cake hahaha |
So I headed to Minster after that. The magnificent Gothic church needed 603 years to finish!! *_*
Well, the work was not continuous of course during 6 centuries, but it was built from time to time. First stone was laid in 1377 and was completed in 1890.

 |
| I tried to so many time to capture the whole church in one view, too tall to do so! |
 |
| Emotional.. |
 |
| Minster steeple.. |
 |
| The last point, man can go up to there.. I did :) |
 |
| Just down there .. |
I decided to go upstart till the last step. Exactly 768 STEPS to go up *_*, it's is not easy to do so unless u r so interested. Minster steeple is 161.5 meter long. For me, this is the tallest building I've ever ascended in my life.. personal record :)
 |
| Here we gooooo |

After that I went inside the church itself, unfortunately the lights was almost off. I think it was time to close so all the pictures from inside were too dark and bad to post here.. These three are the best of all :(
|
 |
| Inside Minster |
 |
| Beautiful |
 |
| With light would it look amazing :( |
After going up 160 meter, I was really hungry. So I bought a Minster church postcard as a souvenir and went out searching something to eat. I found this Indian restaurant and immediately I though about RICE hahahah. Indian kitchen is close to Yemeni kitchen..so I ordered Biryani and Kulfi.. schmeckt so gut ^____^
 |
| The best Biryani ever :P |
 |
| Beautiful architecture.. near Ulm library |
 |
| :) |
 |
| It's fall, u can see magnificent color |
 |
| In my way to Danube, I passed this famous old tower, it was part of the old Ulm wall |
 |
| The tower view from the Danube |
 |
| Der Donau |
 |
| Danube + Ulm Minster + old tower.. I like this picture the most! |
