Bad Blankenburg, Thuringia, Germany - Tourism

Draft for proofreading
The little town of "Bad Blankenburg" was first mentioned in the year 1267. Naturally without the word "Bad" which was granted much later and does not mean "bad". It indicates that the respective place has been recognized and qualified for health treatments. Clean air and special facilities are a prerequisite to earn this title.  The "Rathaus" (city hall, not rat house!) of Bad Blankenburg I was beaten by the heat and found free parking on the market place in front of the city hall. I needed something cold to drink to recover. I gave up my plan to visit the landmark of Bad Blankenburg, the castle "Greifenstein". I hope that I can do this another time to include it in our travel guide. A group of bikers arrived after me and I became jealous. Even wearing heavy leather and riding a bike on a hot day is more comfortable than a car without air condition. At least as long as you are driving.  Thuringia is great for biking. I would have liked to travel like that!
