Very cool museum. New cars are exposed and also historic cars.A nice museum for BMW fans, where you can learn a lot from the brand history.
Great place to know the history and evolution of cars over the years. There are queues sometimes but you dont wait more than 10 minute. You can buy tickets online but can also but there. I definitely recommend

There is a big difference between the live broadcast on TV and the live game. The stadium is very big and the full house at the start of the game is very shocking. The shouts of the goals are very exciting. Munich is a football fan. The stadium is easy to find and can be reached directly by subway. It is very convenient to book with Ctrip. There will be a butler to contact on WeChat. The fan area is in a very good location. The stadium is still a bit cold in February. I must wear more clothes next time I go. Haha, I will choose Ctrip next time. It’s great. It’s a very good experience👍
Cool arena. Not sure how you would enter themuseum but we weren't going in anyway. Shop isup a few steps inside arena. You can also walkaround the inside periphery of the arena.Very remote location but easily accessed by citycentre by U-Bahn. You pay Zone M fare whencoming from the city centre so it's cheap.

The store issued tickets very fast, very convenient, and the price is quite suitable. There are a lot of museum content, divided into many small exhibitions, the human body and atomic science are not seen in China, and the comparison of children's paintings presented here is relatively
The Deutsches Museum is a paradise for curious minds! One of the world’s largest science and technology museums, it’s packed with interactive exhibits—from space travel to historic ships. Perfect for all ages. You’ll need hours (or days!) to explore it all. Fascinating, fun, and inspiring!#DeutschesMuseum#MunichMuseums#ScienceAndTech#GermanyTravel#MuseumLovers#InteractiveLearning

The Munich Palace District, it turns out that this was the real palace district. Later, a museum was built on the original site. It is still worth visiting. The buildings outside are well preserved and the collections inside the museum are also well-known. It is very suitable for checking in.
Munich Palace District This palace district was previously where the royal family lived, but now a series of museums have been built on the original site of the palace. It feels very interesting, and the exhibits inside are divided into several areas. Friends who like history can come here to visit

When you are in Germany, you must try their pig's trotters. They come in many flavors, fried or stewed. I think they are all good. The fried skin is more delicious, and it tastes first-class when poured with the prepared sauce. Fish and chips are the main dish.
When you go to Germany, you must try their beer. Although this store is a little crowded, it is actually more lively. The atmosphere of drinking beer is also very important. I still prefer dark beer.

Munich's New Town Hall was built between 1867 and 1909. It is an old Gothic-style building with statues of Bavarian kings, legendary heroes and saints on its front. Visitors can climb the 85-meter-high tower to overlook Munich's streets.
The New Town Hall in Munich, Germany, has a special feature: the clock on the tower. Every day at 11:00, 12:00 and every day from March to October at 17:00, 32 life-size puppets will perform a historical drama about the wedding of William V in 1558. Every time the puppets on the clock tower rotate with the music, it is very beautiful and attracts many tourists to stop and watch.

Olympiapark in Munich is a great place to watch the sunset on a clear day. Not only is there a lot of history from the Olympics, but the architecture is very nice. Would heavily recommend having a late afternoon picnic.
After visiting the BMW World, we came to the Olympic Park nearby. This was the venue for the 20th Summer Olympics in 1972, and it is now the best place for Munich citizens to exercise. The entire park consists of 33 stadiums, including the Olympic Center Stadium that can accommodate 80,000 people, and a 290-meter-high TV tower. Its central stadium is very unique, with a tent-style roof composed of several "fish nets". The "tent roof" is translucent and is made entirely of artificial plexiglass. This was the most expensive material in the world at the time. This peculiar concept and unique shape made it a miracle in the history of world architecture. The entire Olympic Park has flat grass, clear lakes, and verdant woods, and you can meet many citizens and tourists doing morning exercises and leisure here.

A very worthwhile place to visit! If you have the opportunity to come to Germany, you must go there. It is usually more expensive, 7 euros, so it is best to come on Sunday, only one euro, very cost-effective, Leonardo da Vinci, Van Gogh, Raphael and other European art giants have works! What is rare is that the viewing atmosphere is very good, even on Sundays, there are not many people, you can almost touch the distance of the picture to appreciate the works carefully. In Europe, it feels that in all museums, the distance between visitors and the objects of the exhibition is very close, and the experience is good!
This is a tour you can't miss in Munich^^ I'm glad that this place, which was boring when I was in my 20s, is now moving ㅋㅋ Even though I didn't understand the work, I interpreted it in my own way and watched it without realizing how much time had passed ㅎ
