If your kid loves Cinderella’s Castle in Disneyland, show her the real deal: Visit the fairy tale castle Neuschwanstein, which is nestled in the Bavarian Alps and was the model for Disney’s Sleeping Beauty Castle. If your kids don’t want to walk up the hill to the castle (20 mins), you can also hop on a horse-drawn carriage. I suggest taking a tour of Neuschwanstein to see the richly decorated interior; highlights include a gaudy artificial grotto, the Throne Room with its giant crown-shaped chandelier, and the lavish Minstrels' Hall.
