Wish I took more pictures of this fantastic garden. I am ecstatic that my husband and I took the…read moretime to walk from our hotel to the English Garden. We brought sandwiches, snacks and water which made for a little picnic. The garden is enormous and beautifully maintained. Wish we had gardens such as this in the USA. I think this may even be bigger than the Central Park in NYC - most certainly safer! We went on a Monday but it was still full of people. From what it seems, it's a favorite among locals and tourists alike. Locals wade into the water and there are even some spots where they surf! I believe there's even a lifeguard in one of the areas. They don't just let anyone surf though and there are some warning signs about its dangers. Hubby and I were able to find a bench in the shade where we just enjoyed the scenery for a while. It was perfect for our jet lag recovery The park is also within walking distance from many other landmarks in Munich, such as The Residence, the Odeonsplatz, Mariensplatz, The Munich Cathedral, among many others.

This park is larger than Central Park and is arguably the largest park in Europe. We only spent a…read morefew hours with our bikes exploring, but we were thrilled with what we discovered around every turn. There's a beautiful river with plenty of waterfront space to relax and even a place to watch surfers practicing. There's a huge beer garden by the Chinese Tower, great for a break or people watching. There's lots of well maintained pathways for walking snd bikes. Munich residents are lucky to have this space!

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.

Um, this isn't a dive bar at all…read more AT ALL. This place is a fair trade restaurant located in a cultural exchange centre, and it happens to have a full bar. Oh, and they have a beer garden during the warmer months. The food, with commendable vegetarian options, is good and moderately priced, but won't blow you away. The wine selection here is spartan, but is also moderately priced. What's special about this place is the diversity and colourfulness of character of the patrons. If ever you are invited to spend an evening here with friends, make sure to accept, as you're sure to meet some interesting humans. This doesn't really strike me as the place to go alone to meet new people, but that could just be me. Added bonus: browse the informational pamphlets in the foyer. You just might find an activity or way to get involved in Munich that really speaks to you!

My wife and I were in Munich and took a train out to Dachau. It was an interesting tour. You see…read morethe crematorium and some rebuilt barracks and a lot of history of the first concentration camp. Our tour guide was very good and seemed to enjoy his job. The tour does not take you to some of the areas, but there are plenty of displays in those as well. The visitor center is also pretty nice and helpful service. Worth a half day trip while in Munich.

Dachau was one of the first concentration camps and was the longest running one spanning from early…read more1933 to 1945. I have been to other camps around Europe, but this one was larger than the others that I've seen. They all are similar in that it is very sobering and sad to walk amongst these sites where so many atrocities occurred. It's insane to visit a place like this and to realize there are people on this planet that believe this is fake and never happened. It's free to enter and is a short drive from Munich. There are many different buildings and outdoor areas to walk amongst, the main ones being the small museum, the barracks, and the worst of all which was the gas chamber. This place is absolutely packed with history and is a very important educational experience for everyone. It's important that these crimes aren't forgotten and hopefully prevented in the future. It's honestly a sad visit but I would definitely recommend that everyone should visit this site at least once. Understanding history is the best way to prevent it from occurring again so it's really important that these lessons aren't forgotten and that these victims are remembered.
