FIRST DAY

Marienplatz and Karlsplatz

Marienplatz is the central square of Munich. The square is dominated by the New Town Hall (Neues Rathaus). 
A high tower (81 meters) dominates the main façade and capture the attention of tourists because it hosts the famous Glockenspiel (literally "bell game"), the largest carillon in Germany which operates three times a day: at 11, at 12 and, from March to October, even at 17. At the east side Munich's Old City Hall (Altes Rathaus) is located. It's a gothic council hall and ballroom and tower, which have been reconstructed.
the area covering the Karlsplatz and Marienplatz is also great for those who want to shop because many shops.
Karlsplatz is a large square in the center of Munich. The most important building dominating the square is on the east side of the Karlstor, a gothic gate of the demolished medieval fortifications.
On the square there is a big fountain in the summer. In the winter they install an open-air ice drink.






English garden

English Garden is the largest urban park in Europe and is one of the largest Park in the world.
In this park there is a Chinese Tower (in wood and in the style of a pagoda), the Japanese tea house and the Amphitheater. The Japanese tea house is just around the Haus der Kunst in the English
Garden. E 'was built to mark the twinning with the Japanese city of Sapporo in 1972 at the Olympic Games in Monaco of Bavaria. Amphitheater right at the north end of the English garden, every year when the weather in the evening open-air theater, a classic comedy, listed in July. Admission is free.
The English garden has something to offer for all ages and interests. One thing that intrigued me a lot is the "Eisbachsurfer", ie small artificial waves created specifically for surf lovers!




Hofgarten

Hofgarten is an interesting garden located between the Munich Residenz and the English Garden. 
It was built in the period from 1613 to 1617 by order of King Maximilian I of Bavaria, giving it a remarkable Italian Renaissance style. In the center has a whole pavilion dedicated to the goddess Diana.

 The complex draws people year-round with concerts, festivals and sporting events, and its swimming hall and ice-skating rink are open to the public. In the Olympiapark you can find the Olympiastadion and  the 290m Olympiaturm. From the latter you can see a beautiful view of the city with 7 euro ticket.

ADVICE ON WHAT TO EAT

What to say, you know that the German cuisine is essentially composed of Wurst and Kartoffeln (potatoes) !!! They are curry-wurst, bratwurst or just typical white wurst typical in Bavaria, are all delicious! Of course accompanied by the Munich's beer for excellence: a Paulaner Weiss.
