1.52 million people visited Neuschwanstein Castle in 2013 – 100,000 guests more than the prior year. In other words, for the first time visitor figures topped the 1.5 million mark. Above all tourists from China and Russia are almost magically attracted to Neuschwanstein, as was disclosed at a press conference on the plans of Bavaria’s Castle Administration Dept. The castle’s appeal was evaluated on the basis of the number of guided tours in the respective languages; Neuschwanstein Castle can only be visited by guided tour. The proportion of tourists who were Chinese speakers thus came to 13.5 per cent, while 8.3 per cent attended guided tours in Russian. The number of English-speaking visitors amounted to 27.2 percent, which is more than that of German speakers (23.7 per cent). All in all, the various castles in Bavaria last year attracted around 4.9 million visitors.
