Munich occupies a special place among Germany's tourist centers
This city is a unique resort because it offers the most diverse types of recreation: for cultural enrichment, there is an opportunity to visit museums, among which the Alte Pinakothek is one of the most popular, storing about 800 works by famous artists of medieval Europe; for lovers of noisy celebrations, one of the mandatory festivities that is recommended to visit is the Oktoberfest festival, the fun of which is accompanied by the consumption of famous Bavarian beer. As the capital of Bavaria, Munich is precisely the city that a large number of tourists visit regardless of the time of year.
Among all the sights of Munich, the central place belongs to the main square of the city – Marienplatz. Its name is directly associated with the Marian Column towering in the center of the square. The main decoration of the square is a mechanical clock adorned with 32 copper figurines. Every weekday at eleven in the morning, you can hear the chime of 43 bells of this clock, and from May to October, you can enjoy this spectacle three times a day – at eleven o'clock, at noon, and at five o'clock in the evening.
No less popular among tourists is the medieval Cathedral of Our Lady, known as Frauenkirche. This building dates back to the 15th century and is built in Gothic style. The cathedral's grandeur is given by two towering spires. Thanks to the observation deck in one of them, you can enjoy a magnificent panorama of the city.
A continuation of Munich's medieval architecture is St. Peter's Church (Peterskirche). This building stands out with its Baroque style, in which its interior decoration is designed. The central place of the church is adorned with the faces of four fathers. The unique shape of the church dome, resembling a lantern, has become one of the main symbols of the resort.
The Rococo style fills most of Munich's architectural buildings, primarily referring to one of the city's magnificent buildings - Nymphenburg Palace. The beautiful park surrounding it complements the interior design of the palace. The main adornments of Nymphenburg Palace are the frescoes, as well as galleries depicting local beauties, which can be seen in the Great Hall of the palace. Carriages, sleighs, and horse harnesses are the main adornments of the Porcelain Museum and the Carriage Museum.
So, if you get the chance to visit Munich, be sure to visit these sights – the unforgettable impressions you get there will become one of the main memories from visiting this amazing country.
