Munich, Germany

Munich is the capital and the largest city of the German state of Bavaria. It is located on the River Isar north of the Bavarian Alps. Munich is the third largest city in Germany, behind Berlin and Hamburg. It is well known for its beautiful architecture, fine culture and the annual Oktoberfest beer celebration. Munich is also a major international center of business, engineering, research and medicine.

Visitors to Munich will be treated to an inspiring mix of historic buildings and impressive architecture. Four grand royal avenues of the 19th century with magnificent official buildings connect Munich's inner city with the suburbs. Two large baroque palaces in Nymphenburg and Oberschleissheim are reminders of Bavaria's royal past.

Munich is a green city with numerous parks. The Englischer Garten, close to the city centre and covering an area of 3.7 km² (larger than Central Park in New York), is one of the world's largest urban public parks. The Deutsches Museum or German Museum, located on an island in the River Isar, is the largest and one of the oldest science museums in the world.
