Travelog post for: Luigi Palermo

Hi today I am on the way  to the Bastei.
I'm stop for a short coffee in Gera.







The lion is the heraldic animal of Gera
but let us continues to the Bastei.


The Bastei is a rock formation towering 194 metres above the Elbe river in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains .
I get a ticket for the ferry and  it goes on.








Through the valley of  Amsel Bottom, through the Sweden Tower








It is a wild and  romantic valley. It is here like in the jungle,
with narrow paths and green ferns.







Then we're up.
The view is overwhelming






Down there is a paddle steamer on the Elbe.





Here it is fantastic
