You might be surprised to learn that you can walk from Switzerland to Konstanz … on foot. It’s literally just across the street in the Swiss town of Kreuzlingen. Cosy and sunny, it looks as if it has stepped out of the illustrations of the Grimm Brothers’ fairy tales. In the well-preserved old town you can find buildings dating back to the 12th century. On the Marktplatz shopping square you can have a cup of coffee and admire the city’s symbol – the famous rotating sculpture Constanza.
Mainau Island is a paradise with a unique garden and park area, every square metre of which is planted with flowers. You will have the opportunity to admire rare species of orchids in the tropical greenhouse of the ancestral castle of the Counts Bernadotte, visit the papilorama with rare species of tropical butterflies. Mainau will always remain in your memory as something perfect, ideal and fabulous. This is where the famous Meersburger rosé wine is produced. During the walk you will have the opportunity to discover the history and architecture of this beautiful city.
