This is the gate where I came in and came out. 
The Heidelberg Castle was my favorite sight to see in my tour of Germany thus the abundance of pictures. 
I would suggest going back to the 1st post on this sight by clicking on the "Older Posts" link at the bottom right of this page. Keep going back till you get to the first post. I think there were 5 or 6. I don't know I lost count. Guess it takes a lot of pics to span the time from 1386 to 2012!
