The first thing I found was an ancient church, but photography was prohibited so no pictures from that. I found the second church of Regensburg, which is shown below. This monster of a church can be seen over buildings and isn't very hard to locate. Unfortunately, because Regensburg is an old town there are no main roads, just a bunch of alleys. I tried to relocate my hostel and ended up at this church three different times.
Even though they were very frustrating to navigate, the alleys were very pretty and housed many shops to visit. My favorite shop by far was the hat shop, seen on the right side of the picture...
So many wonderful hats! Very expensive hats, but wonderful, elegant hats that I would love to bring home! It was around $100 per hat...I was ok with this. I didn't buy anything, but I think I should have. Hats!
Of course I ran around in the alleys, taking pictures of the old fashioned charm. I have no idea what "Kuss" is, but it looked cool. I may have gotten lost, but I really enjoyed it. I wish my hostel was in the area around the church and not next to a bunch of gothic clothes shops and pot joints.
I asked the receptionist at the hostel about a good place to eat. She recommended Da Luigi, which was located by the church. I was told to look for a small alley on the left of a certain road. It took me half an hour and several trips up and down the road to find the alley. It was so small I had to turn sideways to get in. Once past the main entrance the alley widened to reveal Da Luigi. The food was delicious and the waitress was very nice. She wanted to practice her English skills with me, a common occurrence in Europe. After one night's stay in Regensburg, I headed to the third stop in my trip...
