<strong>Hostelworld</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Munich</strong><br />
Customised <strong>for</strong> Simon Lins<br />
Nobody likes to harp on about the stereotypes attached to a city when describing it, but it's hard not to<br />
when talking about <strong>Munich</strong>. The Bavarian capital is birthplace of the beer hall where men and women<br />
decked in lederhosen line larger than life beers in front of thirsty tourists to the sound of traditional<br />
oompah bands. But there is a lot more to the city than that. <strong>Munich</strong> gets increasingly cosmopolitan every<br />
year and it has one of the best selections of museums in Germany. This is why it now rivals Berlin as the<br />
most popular city in Germany with travellers.<br />

Getting There<br />
By plane: <strong>Munich</strong> International Airport is just under<br />
30km northeast of the city centre. It is connected to<br />
the city centre via the S1 and S8 train. The journey<br />
takes 40 minutes approximately.<br />
By train: Hauptbahnhof in the city centre is the<br />
city's main train hub and where all international<br />
trains terminate.<br />
By bus: The majority of long-distance buses<br />
terminate at Hauptbahnhof also.<br />
Getting Around<br />
On foot: Using Marienplatz as your focal point,<br />
covering <strong>Munich</strong>'s city centre on foot is easily<br />
achievable.<br />
By U-Bahn/S-Bahn: Thanks to this integrated<br />
underground/suburban rail network, getting around<br />
<strong>Munich</strong> couldn't be easier. A single journey costs<br />
€2.20 (same as on all modes of transport).<br />
By bus/tram: As efficient as the U-bahn service is,<br />
trains don't cover all parts of the city. Conveniently,<br />
trams/buses serve most places that trains don't.<br />
Trams in particular are also a good way of seeing<br />
the city.<br />
Due to <strong>Munich</strong>'s inland location, it experiences a<br />
continental climate with warm summers and cold<br />
winters. If your visit happens to be in winter make<br />
sure to pack your winter woollies as it can get very<br />
cold in the Bavarian capital between November and<br />
January. February is still quite cold with the average<br />
temperature being below O°C. Between April and<br />
October are the best months to visit as this is when<br />
<strong>Munich</strong> is at its warmest. Just as in any city, the<br />
busier months are between June and August, and<br />
then again in October due to Oktoberfest. Due to a<br />
phenomenon known as Föhn , it can be extremely<br />
warm in this month.<br />

Cheap Eats After Dark<br />
Tizian, Maxburgstrasse 4 Tizian is a quaint Italian<br />
café/restaurant which deals in good pasta and better<br />
pizzas. During the summer there is a terrace out<br />
back where you can sit near a fountain, while on<br />
Friday and Saturday nights there is a good<br />
atmosphere as a DJ spins tunes. Open Mon-Fri<br />
9am-1am, Sat 10am-1am, Sun 10am-6pm.<br />
Friesiche Teestube, Pündterplatz 2 Friesiche<br />
Teestube is the perfect pit-stop <strong>for</strong> a quick lunch in<br />
the afternoon in <strong>Munich</strong>. Choose a dish from the<br />
varied lunch menu or, if you simply need a break<br />
from the sightseeing, enjoy a cake with a cup of tea<br />
- there are over 150 different flavours to choose<br />
from. Open daily from 10am-11pm.<br />
Il Soprano, Kochelseestrasse 8 While it can get<br />
very busy in this small Italian restaurant, the food is<br />
top notch and the reasonable prices lure people in<br />
all day. Along with all the pasta on offer, this<br />
restaurant is also renowned <strong>for</strong> it's fish dishes. Open<br />
daily from 10am-10pm.<br />
Viktualienmarkt<br />
Founded by the first King of Bavaria back in<br />
1807, Viktualienmarkt is one of <strong>Munich</strong>'s number<br />
one attractions. It is also a great place <strong>for</strong> lunch<br />
on the run. All around this colourful market are<br />
outlets dealing in fruit and vegetables, but most<br />
sell traditional Bavarian fare. A 'leberkassemmel'<br />
(bread roll with with liver sausage) washed down<br />
with a cool beer in the beer garden will keep you<br />
going <strong>for</strong> hours. Open Mon-Fri from 10am-6pm,<br />
Saturday from 10am-3pm.<br />
Zum Dürnbräu, Durnbräugasse 2 <strong>Munich</strong> is awash<br />
with restaurants dealing in typical Bavarian<br />
specialities, although all too many are quite<br />
commercialised. This one in the city centre is still a<br />
favourite among locals and you'll definitely find<br />
something on the menu <strong>for</strong> less than €10. Worth<br />
checking out. Open daily from 9am-midnight.<br />
New <strong>Munich</strong> Pub Crawl If you want to see some of<br />
<strong>Munich</strong>'s best known bars and clubs, and want to<br />
party well into the night at the same time, embark<br />
on this pub crawl. The 'New <strong>Munich</strong> Pub Crawl'<br />
goes every night at 8pm and can booked at<br />
www.hostelworld.com/tours.<br />
Augustiner Bräustuben, Landsbergerstrasse 19<br />
The German beer hall is a wonderful thing. The only<br />
problem is that every tourist who goes to <strong>Munich</strong><br />
agrees with me on this. This beer hall just four tram<br />
stops from Hauptbahnhof is an authentic beer hall<br />
and well worth the three-minute journey. Open daily<br />
from 10am-midnight.<br />
Gay / Lesbian <strong>Munich</strong><br />
While the gay scene in <strong>Munich</strong> isn't as evident<br />
as in other German cities such as, let's say,<br />
Berlin, there are still more than a handful of gay<br />
clubs and nights in the Bavarian capital.<br />
Carmen's Lounge (Theklastrasse 1) is one of<br />
the city's most popular gay bars, attracting<br />
people from all walks of life. New York<br />
(Sonnenstrasse 25) is another popular<br />
disco-bar, while Ochsengarten (Müllerstrasse<br />
47) is where the leather-fetish hounds go.<br />
Kunstpark OST Ever imagined what it would be<br />
like if all the main nightclubs in your town were in<br />
the same place? Some Bavarians did, and then<br />
made their thoughts a reality and created Kunstpark<br />
OST! Some of the venues here are a bit cheesy,<br />
but with so many bars and clubs on offer, it's a good<br />
place to head <strong>for</strong> after dark.<br />
Günther Murphy's, Nikolaistrasse 9 This Irish pub<br />
in the Schwabing district draws a bunch of expats<br />
and backpackers who come to enjoy good banter<br />
(chat) and better beer. Open Mon-Thurs 5pm-1am,<br />
Fri 6pm-3am, Sat 12pm-3am, Sun 12pm-1am.<br />
Hofbräuhaus, Platzl 9 The Hofbräuhaus is<br />
somewhere you can't avoid. It is just as much a<br />
tourist attraction as it is a beer hall. You won't meet<br />
any Bavarians here, and there isn't anything<br />
extremely authentic about it, but the beer is good<br />
and the oompah bands that play there create a<br />
jovial atmosphere. Open daily from 9am-midnight.<br />
The Twisted Bavarian, Tengstrasse 20 This pub,<br />
owned by a Bavarian and a Texan, is one of the<br />
newest in <strong>Munich</strong> and is quickly becoming one of<br />
the most popular. Open daily from 5pm-1am, Fri &<br />
Sat 5pm-3am and Sun 11am-1am.<br />
Don't Miss Mark Your Calendar<br />
Frauenkirche, Frauenplatz 1 Dating back to the<br />
15th century, the Frauenkirche is the Bavarian<br />
capital's most instantly recognisable building thanks<br />
to its onion-domed towers. While much of the church<br />
was destroyed during World War II, thankfully its<br />
towers remained unscathed. Open Mon-Sat from<br />
10am-5pm; admission to towers €3.<br />
Marienplatz The focal point <strong>for</strong> any traveller who<br />
visits <strong>Munich</strong>, Marienplatz is the city's main square.<br />
Dominated by the New Town Hall, this<br />
pedestrianised square dates back to the 12th<br />
century and was originally known as<br />
Schrannenmarkt. Today it is where the<br />
'Glockenspiel' takes place daily (see 'Budget Tips').<br />
<strong>Munich</strong> Residence, Residenzstrasse 1 This<br />
building is one of the most ornate in the whole of<br />
Germany as it was the political and cultural centre of<br />
first the Dukes, then the Electors, and finally the<br />
Kings of Bavaria. Over the centuries the various<br />
rulers furnished the rooms to their personal tastes<br />
and today they can be viewed by the public. Open<br />
daily from 10am-4pm; admission €6.<br />
Deutsches Museum<br />
Deutsches Museum, Museumsinsel 1 Science<br />
freaks will love this huge museum which is one<br />
of the largest science and technology museums<br />
in the world. Exhibits here explain everything<br />
from how glass is recycled to how paper is made<br />
to how we use water. Visit this museum and you<br />
will undoubtedly leave a more knowledgeable<br />
human being. Open daily from 9am-5pm;<br />
admission €8.50.<br />
Englischer Garten During the summer months<br />
there is nowhere better to chill out <strong>for</strong> a few hours in<br />
<strong>Munich</strong> than in the English Gardens, the largest<br />
urban park in Germany. Covering 3.73 kilometres, it<br />
has its own beer garden, and even its own waterfall.<br />
January - FIS Snowboarding World Cup Thanks<br />
to the help of some artificial snow, a mountain<br />
perfect <strong>for</strong> snowboarding is created out in <strong>Munich</strong>'s<br />
Olympic Park <strong>for</strong> this annual competition.<br />
February/March - Strong Beer Season As the rest<br />
of the world gives up things every Lent, Bavarians<br />
go to various breweries around the city to enjoy<br />
Starkbier, the strongest beer there is!<br />
April - Frühlingsfest <strong>Munich</strong>'s annual Spring<br />
Festival sees a fairground and numerous beer tents<br />
take over Theresienwiese.<br />
May - Theatron Pentecost Festival Music fans will<br />
love this 3-day event which is held in the Olympic<br />
Park. Also a free event, it showcases the best up<br />
and coming bands in the area.<br />
June/July - Summer Tollwood Festival Since it<br />
began back in 1987, this annual event is now one of<br />
the most popular summer festivals in <strong>Munich</strong>. Rock,<br />
jazz, and pop artists entertain thousands, while<br />
plays staged attract theatre buffs.<br />
July - Christopher Street Day This annual event is<br />
<strong>Munich</strong>'s annual Gay Pride Festival and is one of<br />
the biggest in Germany. Over 50,000 pour on to the<br />
streets and the highlight is an outlandish parade.<br />
August - Isarlust Summer Festival Staged<br />
towards the end of August each year, the free<br />
Isarlust Summer Festival sees an extravaganza of<br />
music and entertainment attract thousands.<br />
September/October - Oktoberfest Beginning in<br />
the second last week in September and ending on<br />
the first Sunday in October, Oktoberfest is the<br />
biggest public festival in the world. Each year 6<br />
million people consume over 5 million litres of beer!<br />
October - Long Night of Museums For one night<br />
only every October over 70 museums in the<br />
Bavarian capital stay open until 2am. Visitors can<br />
buy one ticket costing €15 which gives them access<br />
to all participating museums <strong>for</strong> the day.<br />
November/December - Winter Tollowood<br />
Festival Once again Theresienwiese is the location<br />
<strong>for</strong> Tollwood's winter festival, and once again beer<br />
tents attract thousands.<br />
December - Christkindlmarkt Germany is famous<br />
<strong>for</strong> its Christmas markets and Marienplatz is where<br />
<strong>Munich</strong>'s main market is every Christmas.<br />

Budget Tips A Day in <strong>Munich</strong>...<br />
Visit a museum <strong>for</strong> free Most museums in <strong>Munich</strong><br />
impose an admssion fee, but those owned by the<br />
city of <strong>Munich</strong> are free every Sunday. This includes<br />
the Glyptothek with its collections of Greek and<br />
Roman Antiquities and the Münchner Stadtmuseum<br />
(Municipal Museum) which offers an insight into the<br />
city's history and the daily lives of its people.<br />
Little amuses the innocent<br />
Every day at 11am and 12 noon hundreds<br />
gather in <strong>Munich</strong>'s illustrious Marienplatz and<br />
gaze at the New Town Hall to catch the<br />
'Glockenspiel', a 15 minute show where 32<br />
life-sized figures per<strong>for</strong>m the traditional<br />
'Cooper's Dance'. After five minutes you'll<br />
wonder what all the fuss is about, but it's nice to<br />
catch it if you're in the vicinity at the time.<br />
Save money on transport If you're travelling in a<br />
group of 5, don't pay <strong>for</strong> single journeys separately.<br />
Instead buy a 'partnerticket'. Costing €8, they are<br />
valid <strong>for</strong> the day and by using them you'll save a lot<br />
of money.<br />
Visit the Old Town's churches Some of <strong>Munich</strong><br />
city centre's most beautiful buildings are its<br />
churches. This includes Peterskirche, the oldest<br />
parish church in <strong>Munich</strong> and with an interior dripping<br />
with gold, Michaelskirche where you'll find the<br />
world's second largest barrel-vaulted roof, and<br />
Theatinerkirche, one of the city's Baroque churches.<br />
Check out the Olympic Village In 1996 the<br />
International Olympic Committee decided that<br />
<strong>Munich</strong> was to hold the 1972 Olympic Games. As a<br />
result, Olympic Park was built. It costs money to visit<br />
the main stadium and other attractions, but to walk<br />
around the grounds is totally free.<br />
Start the day the same way typical Bavarians<br />
do with a Weisswurst, a white veal sausage<br />
served in a roll with mustard.<br />
Make Marienplatz your first port of call <strong>for</strong> the<br />
day. Damaged badly in WW2, it has been<br />
restored to its <strong>for</strong>mer glory and is the jewel in<br />
<strong>Munich</strong>'s old town.<br />
Catch the 'Glockenspiel' at the Rathaus<br />
(New Town Hall) in Marienplatz. Afterwards<br />
spend the rest of the morning checking out<br />
the Old Town's churches.<br />
Go to Viktualienmarkt. Get yourself a<br />
Leberkässemme, a spicey meatloaf served<br />
in thick slabs.<br />
After lunch, visit the Residence Museum, a<br />
building inseparable from that of Bavaria's<br />
ruling dynasty.<br />
Just ten minutes walk from the Residence<br />
are the English Gardens. This is the largest<br />
urban park in Germany and a great place to<br />
chill out <strong>for</strong> a few hours.<br />
Making your way back towards Marienplatz,<br />
visit Hofbrahaus, Bavaria's most famous<br />
beer hall. There's nothing particularly<br />
authentic about it, but it's still worth a visit.<br />
Get tram #18 or 19 from Hauptbahnhof and<br />
get off at the 4th stop. Go to Augustiner<br />
Bräustuben, a proper beer hall located on<br />
Landsbergerstrasse. It does great food also.<br />
Get a train from nearby Hackerbrücke train<br />
station to Ostbahnhof, just five minutes from<br />
Kunstpark OST. Finish off the night in one of<br />
the complex's bars or clubs!<br />

SORRY, NO KITCHEN<br />
Unlike our hostels in Vienna and Berlin, Wombats <strong>Munich</strong> does not have a communal kitchen, because<br />
there are crazy laws making that almost impossible... Besides that, our landlord wouldnŽt let us to have one<br />
to avoid the fire hazard.<br />
Again sorry, thereŽs no point to complain about that - there just wonŽt be a kitchen... :-(<br />
