Munich
Frauenkirche
Munich, the capital of Bavaria is a large cosmopolitan city that has been able to retain a provincial atmosphere. The center of Munich is very compact, making it easy to tour the city on foot.

Most of the landmarks, like the Frauenkirche and the New Town Hall can be found in the historic center.
Its excellent subway, the U-bahn, will bring you to the more remote sights, like the Olympiapark or the Nymphenburg palace.
