From the first moment I laid eyes on Munich, I fell in love.
Chic and cosmopolitan, Bavaria's capital and one of Germany's biggest cities, Munich has more than its share of great museums, architectural treasures and historic sites. The same could be said of its abundance of lederhosen and oompah bands. But it's the overall feeling of Gemütlichkeit that makes the city so special.
Some great places to visit are the Residenz, English Garden, Schloss Nymphenburg, Marienplatz and Deutsches Museum, but there is so much more, go and see for yourself.
- Pros:A great variety of museums, beautiful architecture, great atmosphere, safe, clean, huge parks, Oktoberfest
- Cons:Expensive
- In a nutshell:A city with a heart

I liked very much your tips on Munich. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked Munich, too. I'll be going there again in December -- on business, as usual, but I also hope to do a bit of sightseeing before I leave.
I have been to Munich quite a few times, my fave city in fact, but I always like to read what other folks say. You've done a great job with your Munich site.
Agree with you, Munich is sooo chic! I love it too. You cover a complete Munich! :) Goodday.
Very informative page! Love so much the autumn colours! Did you wear a "lederhose" in Hofbraeuhaus? ;-)
Nice page, Helga. Munich is one of my favorite cities in the world, and you've done in a great service with this informative and well-written page.
