Although it has been largely rebuilt after its destruction in WWII, Munich still has a sense of Old World charm. The city has seen its share of prosperity. You can observe a mix of folklore and age-old traditions. But these exist side by side with luxury cars, designer shops, modern restaurants and high-powered industry. Don't miss Marienplatz, the square in the heart of the city. Munich's cultural scene is a leader in Germany. It has impressive museums and galleries housing world-class art. There's also a buzzing music scene. The stunning architecture appears mostly as it did in the late 1800s. One of our favorite day trips from Munich is the stunning Neuschwanstein Castle.

Many people associate Munich with the world-famous Oktoberfest. If you have the chance to enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime party, you should. For those looking for an authentic German or Bavarian atmosphere, Munich will provide just that. Munich is the capital of Bavaria. That's the region of Germany foreigners tend to associate with German traditions. This is the land of lederhosen, oompah music, beer halls and bratwurst. Of course you can't visit Munich without sampling the beer. Brewing is the tradition taken most seriously here and you will taste why!
