Wiesbaden, Germany - charm, class and graffiti

work sent me to Wiesbaden last april. i was impressed by the city and in parts it felt very similar to Austin, Texas (at least to me it did).

sadly i ran out of time and good weather to photograph the Kurhaus and Staatstheater; maybe next time i go back.

Very nice tour along a pretty town. Thanks for the pics.

I have liked specially the classic buildings, its facades, the pedestrian streets and, of course, the graffitis.

Wiesbaden looks a comfortable town to live in.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

beautiful pictures/city, thanks! But given Germany's history, I'm almost afraid to ask what the mural in #39 depicts (?)

Great set. #38 is my favorite with the ballerina on the sidewalk.
Any city with that much street art is alright with me.

Fascinating. Great contrast between pristine old building and gritty new street art.
