The city of Konstanz fronts Lake Constance. It's about 160 miles around the lake and shares its shoreline with three countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). With a population of 83,000 Konstanz is by far the largest city on the lake.
Still has a medieval gate guarding the old town.
The city is packed today with tourists coming to the lake trying to escape the heat.
A view of Konstanz's harbor.
This is Imperia, a rotating 30 foot tall statue, which greets visitors entering Konstanz's harbor. It was clandestinely erected in 1993. Officials couldn't do anything about it because it's on private property. Imperia has since been embraced by the city and is a tourist attraction (meaning: selfies).
The lake water is a beautiful turquoise color.
I had to check out this Mexican drive-thru restaurant in Konstanz. Burrito wasn't bad however, Germans love mango and didn't care for it in my burrito.
