riverfront view of Mainz, Germany (2 of 3)

This part 2 of 3 showing a view of part of the riverfront area of the German city of Mainz, which is located on the Rhine River. This view was taken from the top deck of the Viking Cruise Lines Longship Viking Kara on Wednesday, June 29, 2016. We were on a Rhine Getaway Cruise going north at the time. For anyone keeping track of the geography, this segment starts just north of the industrial facility shown at the end of part 1 (which was immediately north of the Weisenauer Autobahn 60 bridge) and this segment ends before we reach the Mainz-South Railway Bridge. So, we are between those two bridges during this segment. The third segment takes us through the next 2 bridges in the Mainz area.

Kloster Andechs (Andechs Monastery) during Lent

Address: Bergstrasse 2 | Andechs, 82346 Munich, Bavaria, Germany
