The river of shiny waters?

Well, at least you could call it like this sometimes. When there is a lot of sunshine Danube is twinkling all the time.

Passau Daily Photo is online!

Well, some of you might know my old blog about the city of Saarbrücken.  I couldn't keep it up because I moved to Passau to go to university. So I decided to make a new blog so that I can explore the town with you together.

And what's best for the first blog entry? I thought a while and then I chose this photograph. You see the probably the most popular thing about Passau. 

The city is known as "Dreiflüssestadt" which means "city of three rivers" in English. On the photo you see the river Inn on the right entering the river Danube (also known as Donau). Somewhat down the river, the river Ilz is joining Danube also. 

When you stand on the peak of the city where I took this picture, you can greatly see the two different currents clash at each other.
