Nuremberg City Beach

It hasn't really felt like summer here yet. How could it when you have to carry a coat with you on the weekends? But while exploring Nuremberg, we found one event that brought the summer and sand to Bavaria regardless of the temperature!
Just across the canal in Nuremberg's Altstadt, the 4th annual Sommer in der City is hopping. We were fortunate to encounter the party on the 1st of 12 weekends, and will definitely return when the weather is better. The event is best boiled down by the numbers:
1 acre of Nuremberg's Altstadt
600 tons if sand
1,000 lounge chairs
45 giant palm trees
2 beach volleyball courts
1 pool bar (seriously... see below)
€0 entrance fee

Pool bar - sadly no one wanted to dip their feet in just yet!

As you can tell, they literally set up a beach in the middle of Nuremberg, and it was awesome. If you want to sip on some daiquiris at the beach and forget how far away you actually are from the nearest white sand experience, it is highly likely that we will run into each other!
