Ludwig Picked a Breath Taking Site For His Castle

We first noticed the elevations begin to change as we drove toward Ludwig's castle.

 We began to see mountains in the distance...

The closer we got the more rugged the mountains became!

Then in the distance we first saw the castle...

When we arrived on the mountain and the views were spectacular looking down to the valley below!

There Is a Beautiful Tiny Red Succulent...

As we were making our way up to Colonge we stopped at the ruins of an old castle which had a restaurant built into the side of it.  It also had a small souvenir shop and you could climb to the top of one of the towers which we did.  There was a beautiful tiny red succulent, and it anyone can tell me the name of it, I would really like to know.  I took several photos of it.  It was so jewel like and I would like to acquire some for my garden.

 

So tell me my German friends, what is this little beauty?
