This is the first time for me to visit Germany,
I flew from London to Munich first then to Berlin
I didn't spend time at Frankfurt and Hamburg, thinking it might waste more money on hotels so I just choose to go to these two main cities
I really have to save a lot to travel because there are really so many countries waiting for me to travel!
I wana walk through the every corner of the Europe, I will try my best to achieve this :(
so I go budget all the way, because my purpose is to see the country
not spending a fortune on luxury hotels, spas and limos to travel around. Lolol
if I have the money, well I don't mind... if only I have, hahaha!
I spent 4 days in Germany, 2 days each in one city
I found all my hotels and flights from the cheapest I could get on the website
and yeah ....
it is totally free, this is what I found when I did some research on the websites before I go to Germany
Research of the country is very important!
you might find a lot of helpful informations on where you should go, what you should do..
so the free tour I was talking about, its totally free but it's up for you to tip the tour guide if you really like the tour session
well, I did really liked it !
not only tour for Munich, but also Madrid, London, Prague, Barcelona and many more...
maybe when I go to other countries, I would join this free tour again :D
because I joined the free tour too in Berlin as well!
Start our journey in Munich
while waiting for bus
thank god I learnt a little bit of German before when I was in undergraduate programme
that's why I could still read and understand what was on the sign board and understanding the local
typical tourist looking on the map finding my way
I still think London tube is much better and newer, haha
BMW GROUP & HEADQUARTERS
this is one of the landmark of Munich
they actually allow public to visit the factory but it needed to be book in advance
I was too late to book, so I just visited the showroom
so here we go for the lovers of these luxury cars
Behind me is the BMW headquarters which is also called BMW four cylinder
When I was inside the BMW Welt.. trying to spot some nice cars or what , haha!
I have no idea where was I
this is what happen when you visited too many places in one time and you forgot all the names
I tried to find in google but I couldn't even remember what is this building behind me , damn
so just me and the idk building :X
I like this sun roof in the bus, feeling cool. hahahaha
and they gave me the leaflet for renting luxury cars
oh well... Look at the price, lol
Karlsplatz (Stachus) central of Munich which is one of the shopping street
then , passed by this restaurant which filled with lots of people especially the locals
so I thought it should be nice though since the restaurant was so busy
it was one of the Munich's best bavarian restaurant, well this is what I heard
so actually I did homework at home before I came to Germany
like which local food is a must try ..
so the one above is called Leberkase which is highly recommended
White sausages
Pork knuckle
Munich Residence & National Theatre behind me
the left is the Munich Residence
the right is the National Theatre
This is the National Theatre
This is the Glockenspiel which is located at the centre heart of Marienplatz
Church of St. Peter
Everyone was watching Glockenspiel, where music came alive on the time of 11am which attracts huge crowd of tourists like me :D
Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady)
Interior of the Church
One of the shopping mall which I think the interior was really cool
The Feldhenrrnhalle ( Memorial to Bavarian Generals )
Behind me is the Theatinerkirche, Theatine Church
Well.... I think this is cool for an advertisement
Leberkase with bread
Hofbrauhus the famous beer hall
during the Oktoberfest I was told this place is going to be really crowded !
and ya... another best time to come to Germany is during the end of September where Oktoberfest starts
to beer lovers, I think that is a great time for to try many types of beer
History of Hofbrauhaus
Viktualienmarkt is a daily food market and square at the centre of Munich
Maypole in Viktualienmarkt
Munich Stadtmuseum
St Jakobsplatz
That's it for Munich trip , filter out a lot of pictures because I took few pictures on one location. Lol
