More or less every girl had the hobby of being Snow White, Rupangel or Cinderella. But after growing up we realized that these are fairy tales. That’s how the princesses live. However, even if the story is unreal, the castles and cities in the fairy tales exist in reality.
Sleeping Princess Castle
You must still remember the story of the sleeping princess. Whom the witch put to sleep with a curse. A prince came and touched his head with a golden rod and woke him up. There is actually a palace that looks like that princess’s palace. The castle can be found in the village of Hohenschwangau in southwestern Bavaria, Germany. Named Neuschwanstein Castle, this castle was built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria on a rocky hill. Many say that Walt Disney himself visited King Ludwig’s palace before Disneyland was built. He built the sleeping princess’s palace in Disneyland on the model of that palace.
The land of Beauty and the Beast
The beautiful blue city in Beauty and the Beast is real. The beauty and the beast of the fairy tale lived in Colmar, France. In fact, many believe that the city of Walt Disney’s Beauty and the Beast was inspired by the French city of Colmar. The town’s half-timbered cottages, pastel-colored storefronts and medieval castles, colorful flowerbeds lining Little Venice, and cobbled streets will all remind you of the story of Beauty and the Beast.

In Lapland, Finland, snow covers almost the entire year. During the winter, the snow is so thick that it looks like the trees are floating in the sky. There is a small snow house in this place. It may seem that dwarfs live here. This is believed to be the landscape of Hans Christian Andersen’s masterpiece The Snow Queen.
Anderson was born in the Danish city of Odense in the early 19th century to a cobbler and a laundress. He was born and raised in dire poverty. Anderson left home at just 14 years old. He took jobs in the homes of the high and mighty.
