Walking Germany

When Walking Germany remember to look at everything and investigate interesting shops for some fascinating things for sale. But things to do are to watch and talk to people. You will meet some very interesting people wherever you go in Germany and they might be tourists or migrants.

Relaxing Landshut

Relaxing Landshut is close to Munich and a less expensive community to park youself. Enjoy some of the very nice Italian and German restaurants here especially Ristorante Rossini at the foot of the castle. The make the best Olive Oil/Peperoncino spaghetti I have ever had. The recipe includes pine nuts and next to you on the veranda outside is some fresh basil growing you can use to garnish the flavors.

Landshut – a few notes

Landshut is a very interesting and beautiful place to visit. The old buildings, the rivers and all of the services that make it a very livable place as well. Here are just a few parting notes.

You can tell from this I like wheat beers in Germany. This is a very nice one
I found this brewery to be exceptional
On the way to the castle, going up the steps, you will pass Ristorante Rossini. It is exceptional food and the service is more than you could expect from any restaurant. Just look at the fresh basil picked from the garden. In addition they are growing basil on the table so you can pick it off and put it in your food. This pizza was very delicious and the Vegetarian ravioli with the beautiful cream sauce, almost like a four cheese, was very rich but not overly.
Even here you see hang gliding
The pizza at Pizzeria Pomodoro & Mozzarella is also exceptional. We ate here three times it was so good.
The neighboring town of Freising had some amazing history associated with one of the popes, the retired one, along with some important political stories for Bavaria.
There is constant improvement in the city. It’s such a nice place to walk around.

Landshut, Munich – a happenstance gem

Landshut is a very old city, wonderful place to walk around, study the history and a very livable city as well. Transport to Munich is easy as are buses around town. There are monthly storage facilities if you need, which we did, and the Italian restaurant (Rossini) on the steps leading up to the castle is so fantastic. The food quality and pricing can’t be beat in this city.
