Passau, Germany - Walk to St. Stephen's Cathedral / Dom St. Stephan

Decided to talk a little walk before dinner while it was still light out.  The ship was docked at #13, so it was going to be a moderate walk to the cathedral along the Fritz Schaffer Promenade by the river.  The pink steeple belongs to St. Paul's Catholic Church.

Turned on a street with a little shop.
 Artsy vines along the way.
 Follow the yellow brick road!  Höllgasse (street name).
 This looked like the most decent way to get to the top of the hill without a lot of steps.  I think that this is the street Berggasse.  This is looking uphill.
 And a view down hill towards the river.
 The street levels out a little at "Steinweg".  Just a quick right to get to the Domplatz (church area and open plaza).
 Ah, the Christmas Market!!  But first a quick tour inside of the Dom.
 This is a beautiful church and one of my favorites.  Here are a few photos to give you a quick view of the interior and the beauty.




 Handles and directions for in and out.  Yes, your guess is as good as mine!
