★★★★★7 years agoGood place for fun to roam around and A small UFA has also been created to see. Is there a small river which is 15 kilometers long. A small ship also runs on it that will show you to places around it for 2 days..... This ship is very beautiful and whenever you come to Germany you visit this place and enjoy... Cheers 🥂
