Au-Haidhausen

Hey Mr. DJ! Haidhausen is Munich’s musical heartland. The area’s clubs and cocktail bars cater to a clientele of urbanites, young profs and students. Say oui to the recherché Francophone architecture of the French Quarter, get in on the gastronomic scene, or show up at Barroom for a night of martinis and merriment.

Maxvorstadt
0.9 miles from city centre
Avant-garde. Expressionism. If you have a penchant for paintings, chances are that you’ll find a favourite in the museums and galleries that pepper the streets of Maxvorstadt. Don’t miss Lenbachhaus Gallery for a who’s-who of German art, or the chance for rooftop chats with art students at Augustiner Bräustuben bar.
Places to stay from £26 per night
Ludwigsvorstadt
0.6 miles from city centre
Okoberfest, simply the best. This area has played host to the world’s largest imbibing festival since 1810. When the travelling carnival comes to town, local breweries go into overdrive to prepare for almost twenty days of non-stop merriment. As tourists pour in from all corners of the globe, the city raises a glass to the Bavarian art of beer drinking.
Places to stay from £11 per night
Altstadt-Lehel
0.1 miles from city centre
History is only half the story in Alstadt-Lehel. The copper-domed towers of the Frauenkirche lord over this district, famed for its major galleries and museums. However, it’s just as well known for luxury shopping. Splurge at the famous Oberpollinger department store, then dine at Alois Dallmayr for traditional Bavarian dishes.
Places to stay from £38 per night
Litres of beer, lederhosen and laid-back attitudes – Bavaria’s capital of Munich is where you’ll experience an untranslatable sense of serenity known as 'gemütlichkeit'.
Beer is one of the biggest parts of Bavarian culture, and Munich is filled with places to get your hands on a trademark tankard of golden Pilsner. One of the most historical beer halls is Hofbraühaus, which has been serving steins since 1644. If you want to blend in with the locals, order a Mass – one-litre tankard – of Augustiner, crafted by Munich's oldest independent brewery. The beer calendar culminates in the world-famous Oktoberfest, when over six million people raise their tankards and cheers the Bavarian way with a shout of ‘Prost!’ Soak up your beer with some schweinshaxe (roasted pork knuckle), bratwurst (pork sausage) or fresh pretzels.
Munich is much more than just its beer halls – just take a stroll through its beautiful main square, Marienplatz, to see for yourself. Its famous glockenspiel comes to life throughout the day, playing music on 43 bells and depicting historical events through charming dancing animatronic figures. Just a short walk away from the square is the 15th-century Frauenkirche cathedral, known for its iconic domed towers.
The easiest way to make your way around Munich is with a tageskarte, which gives you unlimited use of public transport for an entire day. For added freedom and fun, you can also hop on one of the many public e-scooters sprinkled around the city.

Munich has enough interesting places, museums, and restaurants to keep you busy for a week. You could probably hit the highlights in 2 full days, depending on your interests. Beware the weather in April! It rained and snowed the entire week I was there. However, the week before and the week after were sunny and warm!
Clean city easy to get around on foot.

Clean city easy to get around on foot. Lots to see and explore. I took a walking tour then went out on my own for longer stops and looks. Appreciated the free public music street performances - added a good vibe to my visit.

Definitely do the Cathedral and University Quarters for the musuems and culture and the English Gardens. You must do a traditional Beer hall after all it is Munich! The hoffbrau house is the most famous but Augustine has the best beer and better service its where the locals go.
Munich was very expensive and a bit underwhelming.
22 April 2024
Munich was very expensive and a bit underwhelming. The architecture within the city centre was a joy to behold and capture, however, although the restaurants we visited were first class in terms of provisions, amenities, and customer service, it is not a place for someone to visit on a very low income. There are places to eat out at outwith the city centre which ate less expensive but these are hard to discover. Saturday nights in the centre of Munich is out of bounds if visiting a restaurant or bar unless you make a reservation beforehand. We couldn't get into any licensed establishment on Saturday evening in the city centre although there are plenty of eateries. Retail therapy on a Sunday is a no-go as well as 99% of retailers are closed on this day. The planned guided tours of Munich are mainly German spoken and are very stop start in nature, so you'll hardly get to see and savour the place you primarily wish to visit like Dachau Castle.
Munich has its own character and charm on its own!

Munich has its own character and charm on its own! Marienplatz and the shopping district would be a good place to start the attraction sightseeing. We love a place called Augustine Keller, a beer house that is located near Eden Hotel Wolffe and showcased the charm and rustic culture of Germany. Very nice place for dinner and drinks!
Beautiful city, historically amazing, friendly people;

Beautiful city, historically amazing, friendly people; the hop on and off bus was worth it. Had a great time, my friends who recommended it were right As a vegetarian it was sometime a challenge. But the beer made up for it. Great time with family.
