Munich runs on a rare combination of old-money Bavarian tradition and genuine cosmopolitan comfort: beer halls and the Viktualienmarkt sit close to the Pinakothek museums and the sprawling Englischer Garten, where surfers ride a standing wave on the Eisbach. It's a wealthy, orderly, walkable city that takes its beer gardens and its Oktoberfest as seriously as its art collections.

היכן להתארחMaxvorstadt - the museum quarter (Pinakotheken, Lenbachhaus), studenty and close to the centre; Schwabing - bohemian, borders the Englischer Garten, good cafes and a quieter pace; Glockenbachviertel - Munich's trendiest nightlife and LGBTQ+ hub around Gartnerplatz, lively after dark
