The Olymiapark – A breath-taking view over Munich

The Olympiapark is one of the most famous attractions in Munich and with its 85 hectare the park attracts many tourists and locals every year. In addition to many sporting and cultural events, the park also offers a wonderful view over Munich and, if the weather is fine, even the Alps.

 

The Olympiapark was designed for the 1972 Olympic Games and also gets its name from this major athletic event. For the Olympic games, a stadium, an indoor hall, an indoor swimming pool, a lake and an Olympic village were planned and built for the athletes. Since 1972 the Olympic Park has served as a venue for sporting, cultural and social events and attracts numerous people every day. You can also take wonderful and long walks along the various paths in the park. The path to the Olympic mountain is especially popular, as from there you have a breath-taking view over Munich and can even see the Alps in good weather.

The Olympiaturm

If the view from the Olympiaberg is not enough for you, you can also climb the Olympiaturm. At 291.28 metres, the television tower is Munich’s tallest building and a special feature of the city panorama. At a height of 190m there is a viewing platform from which visitors have the best view of Munich and the Alps. Next to the viewing platform there is also the Rock Museum in the Olympiaturm, which displays a selection of exhibits on the theme of rock and music. If you want to enjoy culinary delights, you can also enjoy a meal in Restaurant 181. The restaurant is located at 181m above sea level and offers a panoramic view of Munich – the glassed-in restaurant rotates completely within 49 minutes. A special conclusion for a successful day.

Haxn, Mass and Obazdn – a traditional day with Bavarian delicacies in Munich

Bavaria is known for its hearty food and home cooking, which also makes the culinary hearts beat faster far beyond the borders of the state capital. Whether white sausages for breakfast or a rustic snack in the beer garden – Munich offers lots of traditional highlights.

 

A visit to a rustic Munich pub or one of the many beautiful beer gardens makes a stay in Munich perfect. These five Bavarian specialities lead you through the culinary day in Munich and bring the “gmiatliche Heimatgfui” directly to your plate.

Bavarian Weißwurstfrühstück

The best way to start the day is with delicious Weisswurst in combination with Weisswurst mustard, a pretzel and a wheat beer. Traditionally, the Weißwurst breakfast takes place before 12.00 noon, because: The Weißwurst must not hear the twelve o’clock bell!

Lunch break with roast pork

The pork crusty roast tastes excellent in beer sauce, served with a bread dumpling and cabbage. In loving work the roast pork was cooked in the oven for hours and again and again poured over with beer. Thus it receives its tender, juicy meat and its resche crust.

Allgäuer Käsespätzle-Vegetarian

Those who like it less meaty but still hearty will make the right decision with cheese spaetzle. The Spätzle are most delicious when homemade and tossed in butter. In the restaurant Lindwurmstüberl the Bavarian cosiness is written in capital letters and delicious cheese Spätzle is served.

An afternoon in the beergargen

The last rays of sunshine under the chestnut trees of the Munich beer gardens can be enjoyed particularly well with a hearty snack board and a Mass. Obazda, radish and crackling lard arrange themselves to a hearty delicious combination and strengthen for the upcoming evening.

Apfelkücherl in the evening

In the restaurant Jagdschlössl you can feast in a cosy atmosphere and let the evening fade away. In addition to the traditional baked apple rings with cinnamon and sugar – Apfelkücherl – other Bavarian delicacies are served here.

One Weekend in Munich – What Munich has to offer

Whether you are planning a city trip or are on a business meeting – Munich is always worth a visit. But what else besides Marienplatz and an evening at the beer garden is there to do on a weekend in Munich? We have a few ideas here on how to get the best impression of Munich.

 

Bavarian charm and beer – that’s what Munich is famous for. But Munich is more versatile than its reputation allows. Between beer gardens and old architecture there are some beautiful and mysterious corners hiding in Munich. We know which one you must have seen in any case when in Munich.

The first impression counts

If you want a really good first impression of Munich you only have to take a walk through the city centre. Starting at the university through the small streets towards Odeonsplatz, where one gets by after a small detour through the Hofgarten and Lehel to the Marienplatz. There, you can lionize town hall and maybe the glockenspiel plays for you.

View from Alter Peter

Anyone who has ever been to Marienplatz should not miss the view from Old Peter. The church is located between Marienplatz and Viktualienmarkt and offers a breathtaking panoramic view of Munich. But first you have to climb the tower, and for that you need a long breath, but it’s worth the climb.

Museums on Sunday

Munich offers culture lovers numerous and diverse museums. Especially the Pinakotheken are well known beyond the city limits of Munich. Therefore, you should visit at least one of the three art museums. Important information: Every Sunday you can visit all three Pinakotheken for only 1 €.

Deutsches Museum

If we are already talking about museums, we can definitely recommend the Deutsches Museum. There you will find information and history about the respective topics, from space travel to instruments. For families, it is definitely worth spending a Sunday afternoon there, as the museum is especially child-friendly.

Schloss Nymphenburg

If you think that Neuschwanstein Castle is too far away from Munich city centre, you should definitely visit Schloss Nymphenburg. The castle impresses not only with its beautiful building, but also with its wide and wonderfully landscaped gardens. A walk through the park is a must, especially for photography enthusiasts.

The Eisbach Wave

Many tourists are also drawn to the Eisbach wave, where surfers can show off their board skills on an artificial wave. This Munich attraction can be perfectly combined with a long walk through the English Garden. Just get off at the university and drift through the green towards Lehel.

Viktualienmarkt

The Viktualienmarkt is already one of Munich’s landmarks. Between the all the hustle you will find many delicacies and all kinds of other things. You will also get to know a small piece of old Munich tradition.
