I took a tram from the train station to the terminus in the park and walked for about 10 minutes to the palace. As I had only 3 hours in this city, I had to skip the exhibition at the palace and walked up to the Hercules statue via the Lowenburg Castle in the rain.

I was disappointed that they were no longer doing the water show in October, but the autumn color was something to behold.

Once I reached the statue, I would have loved to have lunch or at least a cup of coffee at the restaurant, but I had to catch another bus (in fact two buses) from the visitor center back to the train station.
