Munich is the capital of Bavaria, in southern Germany, and it makes a natural base for a visit to the Alpine region. The city holds together traditional German culture and a more cosmopolitan outlook, so a stay here can feel both rooted and open.
What to see and do
- The Gothic New Town Hall is one of the city's best-known landmarks and a good starting point for exploring the old centre.
- The English Garden is an expansive park where you can stroll, sit, and get a sense of everyday Munich life.
- The beer halls are part of the city's identity, and a visit to one is a fitting way to experience Bavarian hospitality.
- Oktoberfest is the celebration the city is most associated with. If you plan around it, book well ahead, as the city becomes very busy.
Beyond the city
Munich's location makes it a useful gateway. The fairy-tale castle of Neuschwanstein is within reach, and visitors often combine the two on a trip through Bavaria. The Alpine scenery that shapes the region's architecture is never far away.
Whether you come for the landmarks, the parks, the beer halls, or the festival, Munich offers a balance of city life and easy access to the countryside. Plan your days around what matters most to you, and allow time to simply wander.
