Schloss Herrenchiemsee, Bavaria, Germany -- Some call Chiemsee -- Germany's 3rd largest lake -- the Bavarian Sea. Sounds like they're channeling the chamber of commerce as not even Texans exaggerate that much. Chiemsee is less than 1% the size of Erie, the smallest of our Great Lakes. (If we're talking Alpine Lakes, our Lake Tahoe 6 times its size.)Pronounced "KEEM-zay," Chiemsee's two largest islands contain a Versailles-wannabe (Herreninsel) and a nunnery known for its liqueur and marzipan (Fraueninsel).
