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.

Locals told us that it was designed by an Englishman to look like an English Park. It was pretty, but it looks like home. It was great for people watching and did enjoy seeing more surfers , and lots of bikers, dogs and walkers. It was a beautiful & sunny 73° & the perfect place to get in well over 10,000 steps here.

Since we were visiting in late November the grounds weren't as lively and lush as they would be during spring or summer, but it was still lovely to walk around and see the flowers and space. The actual greenhouse was well worth the price of admission and we saw so many beautiful plants and even saw turtles up close and personal. There were some very relaxing areas with water features that I could have hung around near for hours. It was really nice. We thought that the way they had the plants and greenhouses organized was so cool too. We went through a range of types of plants, areas of the world, temperatures, sights and smells as we explored. You're able to take it at your own pace and you're free to revisit any areas you'd like. They also have some benches around if you'd like to relax a bit. We did walk through a range of temperatures during this, so even though it was cold outside, we ended up taking off our coats and were warm in our sweaters as we walked through. I definitely recommend wearing layers. They have a cafe here as well as special exhibits and right next door is the Castle and Park Nymphenburg. A great place to spend a few hours and we'll definitely have it on our list when we visit during warmer seasons.

My spidey sense was tingling, so I don't know if this is a great place to wander after dark. In the daytime however, it seemed perfectly fine and I saw a couple of women walking alone as well as one pushing a pram.

It's a bit of a way from the Alstadt, but definitely worth the travel…read more I'm sure there are other public transportation options but I took two tram/train options: 1. You can take the 17 tram (goes through Hauptbahnhof, Nord) and it get you right in front of the canal; or 2. If sticking to the S-bahn is better and the weather is not too bad, you can get off at the Hirschgarten stop, walk a little bit to Hirschgarten, walk through that park (stop for a beer and see the deer if available), walk through a cute residential area north and get to the restaurant side of the museum. Don't expect this to be as epic as Schönbrunn Palace, but Nymphenburg Palace can hold its own. The outdoor space (pool, walkways, park, etc.) are nicely maintained and lovely on a nice day. Actually, just walking around the park is free. If you have less than 30 minutes to go around, you can just walk around the palace/park grounds. The staff is generally polite. If you get the combination pass, you can see the palace, carriage/porcelain museum, and park pavilions. The palace itself is beautiful. The lovely ballroom has a wonderful painting in the ceiling. The room with the portraits of women from all walks to life was interesting and a little surprising that the palace would have a room with that subject. You can cover the palace in about 30-45 minutes. The carriage/porcelain museum is quite interesting, and definitely worth a look. I found myself spending quite a bit of time there, looking at the various porcelain used and the myriad of carriages the royalty used. The pavilions around the park, while interesting, are fairly small and could you skip it unless you have time and are walking around the park anyway. They mostly show the royalty's interest in China and Asia. The bathhouse's bathing area is pretty deep. There is also a small cathedral as well.

There is a huge kids play area area and one or two basketball courts. Dogs can run around here and tons of locals come here for walks with their pets. There is a school cafeteria that has outdoor seating facing the park for a snack or drink. I have seen it open many times I have walked past however, not entirely sure anyone can go in and buy food or drink. One of my favourite Bavarian restaurants Georgenhof is adjacent to this park. Not a bad little park to hang out in and bring your pets for a walk. If you have children you will like the kids play area here.

The park itself, while not nearly the vastness as the English garden, is a lovely walk and has a rather large beer garden. You'll see a lot of folks sitting on grass and benches, and there are basketball hoops for those that need to work off the beer. I didn't really stop to watch the deer, but there are a bunch in the park and great for kids.

I believe you can also purchase food to feed the deer. The restaurant itself is very. Restrooms are located downstairs with many stalls available. The traditional bavarian food is fantastic. We ordered a few things one being the weiss wurst (white sausage and although it may look uncommon to a non-german it is absolutely fantastic. Especially with the mustard. We came during Oktoberfest so we absolutely had to order a few beers which were really great. Great service except for the fact it took a little convincing to bring us glasses of water. We had been walking around all day and although beer is made of water we wanted to enjoy both. They have live traditional music which was very lively to view and listen to as we enjoyed our meal.
