Finally, the nature gave the sunny weather at the last couple of october days. We packed in our car and drove to Kromlau to Devil's Bridge. I was hoping to get some powerful autumn images in such a beautiful place. I have to say I was amazed by The Devil's Bridge and all of these colors mirroring in Rakotzsee.

Rakotzbrücke (a.k.a The Devil’s Bridge) is located in Azalea and Rhododendron Park, Kromlau, Germany (less than 6 kilometers from the Polish border). The park is a beautiful example of an ”English garden” and has many small ponds and lakes. What makes Azalea and Rhododendron Park so special is Rakotzbrücke, a Bridge that was built during the mid 19th century. The bridge was specially built to create a circle when it is reflected in the waters beneath it – a popular photo opp. The Bridge’s artificially-formed basalt columns were specially shipped from distant quarries. There is a large (and free) parking lot. Best to arrive around May when the rhododendron and azalea plants have fully bloomed. The park’s entry is free of charge and is always open.
