I know that place Boris, have visited it several times, but a long time ago. The view of the rivers melting together is fantastic!

Nicely photographed image of this massive statue at the "Deutsches Eck". A great to be had from there.

Yes, they knew how to build monuments to impress ordinary people those days. Very special place indeed and great shot.
