The best photos of Quedlinburg aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Stiftskirche and Half-timbered old town will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Munzenberg for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
A medieval Harz Mountain town with over 1,300 half-timbered houses spanning six centuries of timber-frame architecture.
