| The Neckar River wends its way throughout the Württemberg region of southern Germany. It has played an endearing role throughout the history not only of the university town of Tübingen, but the entire region itself. |
Not unlike Venice
Punts have been a part of Tübingen's river-life and scenery for ages. Students, locals and tourists alike have long enjoyed these low-slung boats for cruising the lovely river, enjoying picnics, cocktails, a bottle of champagne, and even playing their musical instruments directly on these pleasure crafts as they slowly "pole" their way through the water.
