München (Munich) - Capital of Bavaria

by TinyTuck - last update: Jan 26, 2003

Biergarten
Munich is surely one of Germany´s prettiest cities. It´s situated in the state of Bavaria (Bayern) which embodies the "typical Germany" as it is known by some people: men in leather pants, girls in traditional dresses, folk music, dances,... However, Munich is a modern city, and most of it´s 1.2 million inhabitants are not even Bavarian, so don´t expect it to be too much like that!
Oktoberfest
If you have a picture like that in your mind and don´t want to get dissapointed you´ll have to go to the annual Oktoberfest, the biggest folcloric festival in the world, where a lot of Bavarians (and tourists!) wear traditional clothes and everybody drinks a lot of beer and they play German folk music all day.

Pros:"Very nice city, a lot of beer, hearty food"
Cons:"most expensive city of Germany!"
In A Nutshell:"THE stereotypical German city (ok, depends on where you go...)"

 Hi Stephanie, we really enjoyed your Munich pages, we have relatives that live in the city so we know many of the places that you have described. "Stachus" has no translated meaning, it is purely a name (not in dictionary). Regards Martin
