Marsumoto still has a large number of old wooden buildings which Aki pointed out whilst we were walking to the castle. We took some photos on the way back, but it was rther dark by then.

There is also a folkcraft museum and a traditional Miyaji Matsumoto house open as a museum. I was keen to see the Japan Ukiyo-e Museum but unfortunately it was only open for a short time that afternoon and it would have meant missing the castle.
Featuring over 10,000 pieces of ukiyo-e (traditional woodblock prints), the Japan Ukiyo-e Museum is the largest private museum of its kind in the world. Apparently a very limited selection (2 rooms, about 40 prints) are on display. The collection was begun over 200 years ago by Yoshiaki Sakai and includes many pieces from the most famous ukiyo-e artists in history as well as works that are believed to be the last remaining examples of their kind.

According to a local account, it was originally a farm equipment dealership and later a machine manufacturing shop.
This building is infamous for what it replaced. The grand Pennsylvania Station once graced this spot. Prior to the destruction of the WTC, this was the most written about demise of a public space in New York City history.

On our way from Füssen to Hallstatt we stopped in Bad Tölz for just a couple of hours. It is a beautiful resort town situated on the banks of the Isar River in Upper Bavaria. Without any deliberation we headed straight to the Old City on the right bank of the Isar River and soon found ourselves on the really nice wide and steep Market Street (Marktstraße). So we strolled down that main street of Bad Tölz, which in the guidebooks is often called “Festsaal Oberbayerns”. A really charming street! It is framed by the 16th century baroque buildings with steep gabled roofs. These buildings are beautifully decorated with frescos of religious content (for the most part). Here and there one could spot locals dressed in traditional folk costumes, which is quite cute.
В курортном городке Бад Тёлц, что на реке Изар, мы остановились всего на пару часов, когда держали путь из Фюссена в Хальштат. Не мудрствуя лукаво, мы отправились в старый город на правом берегу Изара и оказались на широкой и красивой главной улице Бад Тёльца - Marktstraße. В путеводителях эту улицу часто называют Festsaal Oberbayerns (Бальным залом Верхней Баварии). Её образуют старинные, тесно жмущиеся друг к другу, но с любовью ухоженные здания 16 века в стиле барокко с остроконечными крышами и башенками. Красивые росписи, в основном религиозного содержания, украшают фасады зданий. То тут то там на глаза попадались местные жители в национальных баварских костюмах. Очень мило!
