Video of The Day: Heidelberg and Castle (Germany)

Today ruins of Heidelberg Castle are one of the most popular tourist destinations in Germany. Its first structure was built in AD 1214 and was destroyed many times by wars, fires and lightning-bolts. Located in a city of Heidelberg, the castle sits above the city on the green hill. It also has big gardens. Its last destruction was during World War II, and since then it was partly restored. There's a beautiful view of the city and the river from the castle terraces.

Aibek and Aida took us there when we visited them with Marat last spring.
