Going to Munich tomorrow - any suggestions?

[eurostyl e30]

Tomorrow I'm going to Munich for a few days. From the people that have been there (or know people that have been there), is there anything I should take some time to see?

I know I'm already gonna see the BMW Mobile Tradition exhibit at the Olympic Tower and hit up as many beer gardens as possible.

Any places I can get some car parts - E30, VW, etc? Eat something cheap and wonderful? Congregations of hot women?

I know there's some people from Germany on here, it'd be cool if I could hear from them too...I'm excited for this.

Munich has some cool museums- Duetsches Museum is one that comes to mind.


BierGartens- there are plenty to hit, don't waste too much time at Hofbrauhaus- unless you want to hang with a bunch of mostly American tourists. Try some of the smaller ones, AugustinerKeller is good if I recall correctly.... :)

A day trip to Dachau, a WWII concentration camp just outside Munich, is something you really should consider, it's something you need to see in person to believe.

Viktualienmarkt near the center of town is a great place to grab some good food cheap and quick- don't be afraid to try something new, the potato salad is always a safe bet and good, warmerlieberkase is good and cheap (loosely translated "warm liver cheese"), sort of like a big slab of warmed liverwurst. I always try to avoid the American fast food chain places, as tempting as they can be sometimes- the local food is ALWAYS better.

Thanks for the advice guys, I'm trying to pack as much as I can into four days. Beer, beer, beer. Museum.

Mike, PM sent. I think my UK cell will work there, so I'll send you my #.

I'm staying in some hostel and I'm still figuring out what I'm gonna do. All I know is I've always wanted to go to Munich!


If I was my twin brother, I'd drive that black M-Tech 1 piece of shit ;)

Stay @ Wombat's! Free beer pass FTW!

Bring home a case of bier.

[eurostyl e30]

Beer, beer, beer.

I wanna try some of the weiss beer that's like 6 pounds a pack in London.

Olympic stadium is pretty cool, might as well take a walk through there since you'll be in the area for the mobile tradition anyways. Beer is sold everywhere, drink as much as you can. BitBurger on tap!!

I bought an MGD @ Burger King.... not the best beer, but just to say I bought beer at a fast food.

By the way? Paulaner FTMFW.

Honestly, the Audi museum is amazing. Hop on a train to Ingolstadt if you get a chance and check it out. The complex is stunning and the cars, well lets just say there is some serious motorsports history in there.

Don't miss out on the following:









My favorite beer that I drank while I was over there:

In Munich there is a BMW Individual dealership... downstairs is a line of indie cars, which is very cool to see.

Oh yeah, why not knock on Mobile Traditions door.. let us know if you get in :)

make sure and go to the small specialty shops, they have regional beer that was the best I had when I was over there last year
