Leder Hosen Galore
by Beograd
When attending the festival, traditional dress is extremly popular. You have both young and older people wearing it and even the traditional dress has been modernized to fit very well in todays style of fashion. We plan next year on participating fully with the national dress as well. For the women it is actually much cheaper (of course!) then for the men to purchase "leder hosen" which can get expensive when of decent quality. However, there are places where you can rent "leder hosen".
In the picture seen, one of the waiters is dressed in the particular theme "leder hosen" for this beer tent. The funny thing about the situation, he is one of our country men! We found this fact out when my husband was translating from English to Serbian (?) the Menu and the waiter answered in Serbian which we were very surprised to find out. After that moment, the other guests were forgotten for him and we were the only ones! He spent the entire afternoon with us in the tent, but don't fear you other guests for there was pleanty of other help. This must be a common occurance as friends and family hit the beer tents. It's understood that they cover each other during these situations.

TV Tower on the hill
by aah_stone
When we were here the tower was closed to the public. You can see the scaffolding around the top of the tower in my photo.
But it was still worth heading up there to see the tower and to admire Stuttgart from up high.
I am reliable informed this was the first concrete TV tower in the world. At 217m it isn't the tallest though.
Usually it costs 3Euro to enter the tower.
A Medieval Experience
by seoulgirl
The Stiftkirche is a great church to visit in Tubingen. There are coffins that have forms on the tops of them in the likeness of the person inside. They are all in medieval clothing. It's really neat. You can walk up to the top of the church. It's really neat since I didn't know how far up we have to walk and exactly we were going at the time. There is a spectacular view from the top. It's right in the middle of old town. You can't miss it. Look for the big clock at the top. It's only about 3 mins. from the River and uphill from market square.
