On Saturday afternoon, I walked into town for Heidelberg's Fall Festival.
On the way, I passed a wedding at St. Peterskirche. Built during the 12th century, St. Peter's Church stands as the oldest church in Heidelberg. The officiant of the wedding, however, wore a 21st century headset microphone.
The carriage of the bride and groom.
Plöck runs parallel to Hauptstraße, the main street of Old Town. Plöck normally has few pedestrians, but today Plöck has many pedestrians.

All shops close on Sunday in Heidelberg, but this shop chose to close on this Saturday for the Fall Festival.
A view of Hauptstraße on the day of Heidelberg Herbst. This scene reminds me of the crowd congestion on Nanjing Road in Shanghai.

Face paint for children.
Cookies and popcorn.
Cotton candy.
The strawberries and bananas look so perfect that they seem fake.
Fried potato with apple sauce on an edible wafer plate.
Hearts.
A tango club performs.
Bratwursts.
These bratwursts and hot dogs measure half a meter long. The server folds the bratwursts and hot dogs several times so that they would fit in the open bun that you see near the top of this picture.
Grilled onions and pork.
The German Postal Service.
Native American musicians and their CD's.
Flea market on the sidewalks.
