Mainz to Koblenz, Rhineland-Palatinate Rhine valley views from a train, Germany - 9th August, 2017

Mainz to Koblenz, Rhineland-Palatinate Rhine valley views from an Intercity train, Germany - 9th August, 2017

In August 2017 I had a five day break in Germany, travelling from Stuttgart to Düsseldorf. This film features the journey from Mainz to Koblenz via Intercity train. The film was made with a window mounted Veho Muvi action cam.

The railway line from Mainz to Koblenz hugs the River Rhine for much of the route and is one of the most scenic train rides I have experienced in Germany. The beauty of this landscape helped inspire the romantic poetry movement of the 18th and 19th Centuries.

En-route, the train travels through: Mombach, Budenheim, Uhlerborn, Heideshiem, Gau Algesheim, Trechtingshausen, Niederheimbach, Ingelheim, Bingen, Bacharach, Oberwesel, Sankt Goar, Hirzenach, Bad Salzig, Boppard, Spay, Brey, Rhens, and Stolzenfels.

Germany's Romantic Rhine and Rothenburg

© 2002 Rick Steves' Europe | Cruising the Rhine River, we dodge riverboat traffic and the legendary Lorelei. After climbing castles and descending into dungeons, we relax with Rhine wine. We tour Burg Eltz — a lived-in castle where the noble lady still puts out fresh flowers. Then we enter the walled town of Rothenburg for Germany's best wood carving, a vivid dose of medieval punishment, and a tour with the night watchman of the town's lamp-lit ramparts.

Beilstein, Rhineland-Palatinate in Germany | Travel & Family Vlog

This is yet another charming village on the Mosel, hugging a sharp turn of the river and surrounded on three sides by the classic steep vineyards for which this wine-growing region is famously known. There's no train station, no bridge crossing the Mosel, and the main connection to its neighbor across the river is a miniscule car ferry with no roof.
Beilstein is one of those complete medieval village with an intact core of attractive half-timber houses and its own estates of timeless vineyards, crowned with the romantic ruin of an ancient castle on the hilltop above. Along with Cochem and Bernkastel this was one of my favorite towns on the Mosel in terms of aesthetic quality.
This tiny wine-growing community had one castle at the top, one church on a small knoll, and two streets full of drinking establishments and shops focusing on the world-famous vintage from the nearby slopes.

My channel on you tube : is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced around 1,900 original films.

My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects

Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!

There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.

Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!

Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!
