Hitler Ying Chao of Berchtesgaden

Hitler's "Ying Chao" (German: Kehlsteinhaus or Adlerhorst, English: Eagle's Nest) is a villa, located on the top of a hill named Kehlstein in the upper reaches of Salzburg Mountains.

In order to celebrate Hitler's 50th birthday (1939), martin bormann ordered the construction of a villa at the top of Kelstein at an altitude of 188 1 m in Upper Salzburg as a gift from the Nazi Party to Hitler. It later became the famous "Ying Chao". From the "Ying Chao", you can see the Alps in Berchtesgaden, which was originally designed to receive Hitler. The villa and its supporting facilities were completed on 1938 after 13 months of construction. The road from the foot of the mountain to the mountain does not lead directly to the villa, but to the platform with a height of 1700 meters. From the platform to the villa, you need to take the elevator. The elevator is built in the rock, and the platform passes through a portal and the treaty of130m. However, Hitler only visited Ying Chao about 10 times, and each stay did not exceed 30 minutes. "Ying Chao" has no defensive measures to launch a sudden bombing of the allied forces. After the allied forces began air strikes on most parts of Germany, the Nazis strengthened the air defense facilities in Upper Salzburg and laid underground bunkers at the foot of the mountain. Hitler's luxury villa Ying Chao was unknown before the end of World War II, and it was not made public by the media until after the end of World War II. British journalist Wade Price called it "one of eight wonders of the world" and named it "Ying Chao" in his post-war reports. Today's "Ying Chao" is still in its original state, attracting countless tourists. In 2005, Hitler's residence in Upper Salzburg was converted into the Intercontinental Hotel Berchtesgaden, also known as "the first mountain resort in Germany".
