After small and cozy Dresden Munich seemed to us as a huge vibrant city: vibrant, overcrowded and very authentic. We spent there three days and I can say it’s not enough at all. There are so many places and sights to see that you can spend there even month withoug getting bored. Below I want to highlight places we visited.
City center
The first thing you are noticing in city center it’s a crowd of people. They are everywhere, and you need to look around to avoid kicks and puching. Lines are also everywhere: in grocedy stores, in cafes, even in beergarten there is no free sits and you need to wait someone to leave.
As a result: there are so many choise in cafes and restaurants and city keeps buzzing even at night.
Buildings in city center are monumental and beautiful. You can see there several architectural styles in one street: from gothic to modern.
Transport system works very well. You can reach any neughbour of the city from center in half an hour.
Olimpia Park
Park is located near BMW museum I’ve written about. We entered it to have a lunch, but you can spend there the hole day: there are a wonderful picturesque lawns, a lot of kids entartainment from roller coaster to a ferris wheel. Also you could find there a flee market, street food and sport areas
English Garden
English Garden is a very cool park. In comparison with Olimpia Park you can find there a tree and a schadow during the hot day. Throuh the park a man-made river Isar is flowing with a place for surfers to practice theit skills. A lot of people are gathering there to see surfers in action.
However, down the steam you can swim yourself or just put your feet (as I did) in a cool water and enjoy fresh feeling during the afternoon.
Residence
Another garden we found near the Residence, the enormous museum that used to be a palace.
