Another old building we stumbled upon in our travels. They are old gates to the city from the 14th century. We were lucky to pass by a tour group walking the grounds and snagged that little bit of history before walking on. Beyond the city gates are some old buildings and churches we popped into before being asked for a ticket. It was a lovely little walk that could have easily been a day tour.

One of the highlights of my time in Munich. I love a good outdoor market and this one is one of…read morethe best. Open everyday except Sunday, you can find everything here. Fresh flowers, meats, cheeses, baked goods and fresh baked breads, and of course beer and wine bars. There's something here for everyone and it's always fun checking out all the different booths. I walked over every morning for fresh Cappuccino at Leo's Kaffee and would pick up a pastry at one of the bakeries. In the afternoon, I would stop by the pickle guy and buy a few of the best pickles I've ever eaten. So many choices from sweet to sour, spicy and my favorite a super sour with a spicy horseradish. The long line moves quickly and if you like pickles, you must stop here.

This was easily one of my favorite farmers markets in Europe. There was a great selection of fresh…read moreproduce, condiments, snacks, alcohol, tea, flowers, cheese, and more. Unfortunately, I visited during the holidays, so some stalls weren't open. One shop in particular really caught my attention--it specialized in mustard (Senf) and offered so many varieties I had never seen or even heard of before. I was excited to try everything. Prices ranged from €2 to €7 per bottle, and while I was tempted to buy several, my luggage limitations held me back. In the end, I chose two: black truffle mustard and matcha mustard. Can't wait to try them once I'm back home.

That being said, if you're a speed walker/museum goer, you could see the treasury in an hour. If you enjoy art and seeing trinkets, I think this museum is a great place to spend your time. I could spend an hour or 5. It really depends on the person.

Expect to spend at least 2 to 3 hours if you're willing to read and listen to the audio historical information. This is well worth the trip. A short walk from our hotel. And you get to go through the English gardens.

One of the most popular meeting places in the city of Munich, it's easy to understand why as it stands at one end of the large Marienplatz square. There are a few traditions that happen here, some that date back to the 16th century. The funnest one, I think is the "wallet washing" where the mayor of Munich puts an empty wallet in the fountain to ensure that the city funds will be filled again next year. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area. [Review 12020 overall, 1803 of 2019.]
