It has derived its name from the word “Munichen” meaning by the Monks. Being the capital city of Bavaria, it is the third most populous city of Germany. Most of the historical architectures were destroyed by the World war, a building has been rebuilt now and it mostly looks like the same as it used to be in the late 1800s including it’s largest Church, City hall and the Frauenkirche.

Munich is the major global centre for Science and Innovation also serving as a prime factor of art, finance, publishing, culture and media, education and casing several multinational companies. Munich is one of the fastest growing cities in the world with a multitude of world-class technology and science museums.

Munich is all about beer and pretzels

For the foodies, you can try Bagels served with Sausages. Coming from the long lasting Roman tradition you can try Sauerkraut (Pickled Cabbage), Lard is a spread which is usually kept for morning risers or in between meals served with roasted full wheat bread.

Apfelstrudel is one of the most beloved desserts made of apple chunks.

The Oktoberfest is an important part of a Bavarian culture which is basically a Beer festival where almost 7.7 litres of beer gets served of various types, a treat for the beer lovers.

Munich Residenz is one of Europe’s most spectacular places, for centuries it has been the seat of the dukes, electors and kings of Bavaria.

Frauenkirche is a massive Gothic church with twin 100-meter-tall towers, Renaissance domes. These twin towers are visible from all over the city.

There is also a strange fact regarding the footprint on the floor of the porch which is believed to be left by the devil who came to visit the church and that print is still there.

One of the most beautiful gardens here is the English Garden which covers almost 910 acres, being the largest park in Germany.

The park also contains the Bavarian National Museum with its fine collection of medieval German sculptures and the Bavarian State Archaeological Collection which displays local prehistoric artefacts.

Science museums like the Deutsches Museum and BMW Museum are not meant to be missed. In the BMW museum, you can see the present models and learn about the technology of modern automobile construction as well as get glimpses of future technologies and designs the company is exploring.

There is something for everyone here no matter if you look about arts, culture, shopping, fine dining, nightlife, sport events or Bavarian beer hall atmosphere.
