""Beer is Bread", Shiny Things & Bazoombas!" Munich by poons
Munich Travel Guide: 4,310 reviews and 9,915 photos
Had the real pleasure of a 6 day trip to Munich recently accompanied by some fellow VT'ers.
What a beautiful City and a fascinating insight into Bavarian life.
The food, the beer, the people, the museums, art galleries, palaces etc. were a real treat.
Was hit by the worst snow fall they had experienced in 50 years whilst we were there which didn't stop us exploring Munich itself, but unfortunately put a stop to our plans to take a train out to Schwangau. Next time maybe - and there will be a next time for sure.
Lots of great beer was sampled - and found it to be very forgiving the next day.
WARNING! : Don't take Rasmus to a place where there are lots of shiny things.
I kept a close eye on him after hearing him say : " If it's shiny - grab it ! " during a walk around the extremely shiny Residence Museum.
Yes the traditional costume is very beautiful and emphasises the female form perfectly. I asked the waitress if I could take a photo of her costume, but she knew what we were up to really... hehe.
A few of the locals had a laugh at us capturing this moment too!
- Pros:Food, beer and the people all surpassed my expectations
- Cons:Not enough signposts directing you to places to visit

Nice page about Munich
Spent a week alone in Munich as a 16 year old innocent. It will always have a special place in my heart :)
Nice page. I'd like to visit Munich one day. See you!
Ha! At least you got to be the Glockenspiel properly even if you were slightly underwhelmed. When I was in Munich, half of it was covered up with blue tarpaulins for renovation work. Typical. :-P Nice page.
Nice page.Is there anything here for someone who does not drink beer ? Anyway I'm visiting the city in April.
Nice tips ;-)
when did u go?
maybe I should try a pair on, put on some music and wave 'em around a bit =)
Gutentag!
Nicelittle page on Munich June. Helpful tip on restaurants, accommodations and shopping. The rathuis Glockenspiel looks really cool.
