    "It is the taste of a fairy tale. It snowed on the Marian Bridge on the day of the trip, and it felt like entering a fairyland in an instant. Ludwig II is indeed an absolute practitioner of idealism. The style in the fort has both retro style and modern elements. The only shortcoming is that it is not finally completed."
