Pros: Very nice city. You can also take a day trip to Salzburg, Austria.
Cons: The shopping can be pricey.
Summary: Everything you want is there! We visited Munich in Mid May 2009 and spent 5 days there. The weather was colder (62 degrees) and cloudy which made it wonderful for walking. We stayed at the Hotel Uhland (Uhlandstrasse 1, Munich, Germany) where we enjoyed ...

FOOD and BEER
Cons: Get used to the coldness towards Americans
Smoking is allowed everywhere

Pros: If you go to Europe, Visit Munich
Cons: Yes, it gets cold in the winter. Like New York City.
Summary: I originally wrote my first Epinion about Munich yesterday and received comments that it was a bit too thin on what to do and see, so this is a revised version. First of all, I've been visiting Munich for more than 25 years, often more than twice ...

Pros: Friendly People, Fabulous Food, Great Beer...
Cons: Too Many Tourists in the Summer...
Summary: ‘In Munich Stands a Hofbräuhaus’…or so, roughly translated, runs one well-known staple of Munich’s beerhall sing-alongs. For many who’ve never visited this charming city (and perhaps, even for a few who have…) this, along with the ...

Pros: Munich has more to offer than Beer, Mad King Ludwig and Hitler.
Cons: Many tourists come only to confirm their prejudices.
Summary: The other day I was in Munich to see an art exhibition. I didn’t have any plans for the afternoon and when I saw a leaflet ‘Munich Walk Tours in English’, (from May 17th to August 31st daily 10:45 am and 3:00 pm, from Sept. 1st to Oct. 31st...

Pros: Wonderful architecture, lovely countryside, Christmas markets

Pros: Almost everything. One of the few places I could imagine to live.
Cons: Americans who think Hofbräuhaus is everything, and leave after 2h :-(
Summary: I must admit that I sometimes like to step in on epinions.com and have some amusing 15 minutes when I read Americans write about the places where I grew up :-) Don't get mad, you'd have the same feelings if you went to the German equivalences of...

Pros: Beautiful architecture, museums, castles and palaces to see!
Cons: The tour to Neuschwanstein Castle is very disappointing; not much seen; overcrowded!!
Summary: We just left Munich and spent 10 glorious days there. The clock tower goes off twice a day and it's a must to see. The Residence Museum is a must for renaissance paintings and decorative art, sculptures and beauty.
For those who love to walk,...
