 Munich
is a city of art and culture. It has innumerable monuments, and more
museums than any other city in Germany. In quality, its collections
even surpass those of Berlin. The Wittelsbachs (the ruling family of
Europe from approximately the 13th century to the early 20th century)
were great collectors--some might say pillagers--and have left
behind a city full of treasures.
Go to Munich to have fun and to enjoy the relaxed lifestyle, the
friendly ambience, and the wealth of activities, sightseeing, and
cultural events. You'll never be at a loss for something to do or
see here. Munich is stocked with so many treasures that any visitor
who plans to "do" the city in a day or two will not only miss out on
many major sights but will also fail to grasp the city's spirit and
absorb its special flavor.
