Short breaks in Munich
Book a Munich City holiday and discover the beauty of Germany’s third largest city.
Modern but with plenty of history and culture also, Munich, Germany, is a great choice for a European holiday or city break at anytime of year. Throughout the summer months Munich comes alive with the sound of people enjoying the local brew in the many beer gardens around the city and there are regular festivals and outdoor concerts for your entertainment. During the snowy winters a holiday in Munich has an altogether different feel with an almost constant festive atmosphere and some great Christmas markets to tempt you to part with your Euro’s.
Enjoy your Munich break
Although the 5000 person capacity Hofbrauhaus beer hall is perhaps Munich’s most famous landmark, and a definite must see, there are lots of other attractions to enjoy on a Munich holiday. Music is ever popular and the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra and the Bavarian State Opera attract lovers of classical and opera music to the city. In the summer there are outdoor concerts at the famous Nymphenburg Palace and lakeside rock concerts at Olympia Park. Anyone who loves cars will enjoy a visit to the BMW museum whilst on holiday in Munich City and those who appreciate nature will not just love Munich’s location, in the forested Bavarian south, but will also find numerous parks and green spaces including a botanical garden in the city itself.
Shopping, eating and drinking in Munich
Once you have had your fill of Munich culture and history you can always go shopping and the city will not disappoint followers of fashion. There are plenty of shops selling everything from attractive wooden souvenirs to designer clothing and your shopping expedition can be broken up with a pit-stop at one of Munich’s pavement cafe’s or beer halls. At the end of the day you will have worked up quite an appetite so head for one of Munich’s many eateries where you can feast on Bavarian specialties including weisswurst, a white veal sausage, eaten with sweet mustard and pretzels or perhaps crispy grilled knuckle of pork with sauerkraut and even leberkase, a meat dish made with pork and beef. They all taste a lot better than they sound.
