After Legoland, we stopped in Dinkelsbühl on the way home for dinner. Fifty kilometers south of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Dinkelsbühl is very similar- but much less crowded. It offers many of the same features on a smaller scale- a well-preserved Medieval town with intact wall, colorful half-timber buildings, and wonderful ambiance. No wonder it's listed as a stop on the Romantic Road. We had a great dinner, followed it up with amazing ice cream, and strolled the city for thirty minutes before heading home.
Over-tourism is causing problems in Europe- we noticed this on our recent adventures- and so towns like Dinkelsbühl are a welcome sight, where one can enjoy the history and beauty of the continent without feeling overrun. I'd love to go back and explore it more fully.
