... to shorten the waiting time 🚅, a quick detour to the Chinese Garden 🪴 and the Bismarck Tower 🤩!

This tour in the west of Stuttgart first went up and down the Stäffele.
There were very nice views of the city from the Kriegsberg Tower and Bismarck Tower. The Theodor Heuss House is also very interesting, it tells about his life.
