Munich...


Munich is one of the most enjoyable, livable, and entertaining cities in Bavaria.With a population of 1.5 million, the city is still growing!

Within Marienplatz and the Pedestrian zone is the New Town Hall built in 1867. This building boasts a glockenspiel that is 100 years old and jousts daily between 11:00 and 12:00. During WWII this building served as US Military headquarters due to it central location and lack of damage. 

Javin and Dad were approached by a group of ladies on a bachelorette outing. The woman in yellow is the bride and was collecting signatures from tourist!

This fountian is located in the courtyard of the University of Munich.

The Siegestor Arch was build in 1852 and was mostly destroyed during the war. The city of Munich elected to rebuild on this portion. It was one of the original entrance gates in the city.
