Munich


Neues Rathaus {New Town Hall} at Christmastime, Marienplatz

Munich is filled with beautiful architecture and art, diverse restaurants, and pretty shops. It’s a treat to stop by the main town square at 11am to see the Glockenspiele {Clock Tower}. Mechanical knights joust as the bells ring out.
