Ce să vizitezi în München 👉🏻 Oktoberfest, surf & mâncare locală

Welcome back to a brand new Passport Pair vlog! Today we are in Munich, because we couldn’t miss this city, considering that we came to Bavaria, and we can’t wait to show you the city. We are in Munich’s main square, Marienplatz, and behind us you can see the New Town Hall. So stay tuned and don’t forget: like, share, subscribe and so on! We’re going back in time a little to tell you quickly about the Nuremberg-Munich trip. As you already know and as we already told you in the Nürenberg vlog, we traveled with the Deutschland Ticket again. The trip took almost two hours and went by pretty quickly. Arriving in Munich, we had to readjust to the big, busy city vibe. But that’s it, we’re back to exploring the city! We couldn’t help but start our trip in Munich from the main square, Marienplatz, which was founded by Benedictine monks at the behest of Henry the Lion. And if you watched our Schwerin vlog, you know that Henry the Lion was the founder of the city of Schwerin, but also of the city where we are now, Munich. So, you can also watch that vlog, to learn more stories about him. This square is called Marienplatz because Saint Mary is considered the protector of the city. And that’s why you’ll also come across some churches that carry this name. Right next to Marienplatz, we encounter St. Peter’s Cathedral, one of the main cathedrals in the city center. It was built in the 12th century, but renovated after the fire that devastated it in the 14th century, as well as after the bombing in the Second World War. It is the oldest cathedral in Munich. We are in the City Hall of Munich, an exclusively Gothic architectural ensemble, I could say Gothic par excellence. Right. And it is very impressive with all the chandeliers and stained glass windows of the building. I don’t know… It looks really nice and it kind of transports you back in time. And it’s free to visit. Or at least that’s how we entered. No one kicked us out for the moment. I think there are some key points in the city on these stained glass windows. Right, look, this is King Ludwig’s marriage to… I don’t know what his wife’s name was. I think this is it, I read that there is a very important brewery nearby, being the place where the Oktoberfest festival originated, and I think this is where that event is portrayed. And I think that’s the city key, on the left, right? And on the right is the same coat of arms that we also saw in Nuremberg. Do you see it? Yes. Look, there! And up here. Yes, very, very impressive. Look, up! Look, it’s right the… The Nuremberg coat of arms, above. And look, here is a… Just like that fountain we saw in Nuremberg, but you see it’s actually a statue. OK. Will it be something that still exists? Do you see it? Yes, yes, yes, I see. I don’t know. No, it says Bremen. Ah, look. Sorry to interrupt you. On the top, as you can see, it says Hansa. If you remember, when we visited Hamburg, I spoke a bit about the Hansa. Although, Munich is in southern Germany and should have nothing to do with the Hansa. Probably, I don’t know… They probably had business connections, stuff like that. Right, they probably had business connections. That’s why, look, that’s why Bremen is here, because Bremen is part of the Hansa, because it’s in the north… Right. And a bonus point, that the City Hall can be visited for free. Let’s go up! It seems like a castle. Well, close enough, I’d say… And well, I think that in the corridors are the administrative offices, but the building is a gem. I’m curious to see if we can get to that balcony we saw from the square, and take some shots from there. I think there is a restaurant or a bistro, I think. Let’s see! [Music] Ah, we can’t get in here. Are we not allowed in? [Music] Did you see we’re not alone? Yes. We are not the only ones who came to film in the City Hall building. Right, this is a city view of Munich. This cathedral is a symbol of the city of Munich. This is the Frauenkirche cathedral. Peterkirche, which we also visited a little earlier. Holy Trinity Cathedral, which we saw a bit earlier, and the rest. We haven’t been on this side yet. Is Holy Trinity Gothic as well? Yes. Yes. And look! It is a representation of Bavaria. Saint Mary is the patron saint of Bavaria, right? Wow! And what a gorgeous view from this balcony to the inner courtyard, where there is a terrace, a restaurant, but an absolutely gorgeous view of the towers of the edifice! And as you can see in front, it’s a gallery. And that can be visited, but today I think it is closed. Look, isn’t that the brand of beer from last night? Yeah, yeah, that’s right. It’s related to beer, because, if you see, there’s hops up there. Right. Up there and, look, and in the center here. It is not the same here. This is the religious area. That’s Saint Peter with… Right. Right. The stained glass windows in the center and on the right are linked to beer, because obviously, Munich is an important beer-production center. And as Marius shows you here, in this area, there is the logo of a local beer brand that dates back, I think, to the 15th century. No. Yes. Yes? 1417, as it was written, right? Yes, the 15th century. And last night, because we arrived in Munich last night, we stopped at a restaurant right in the neighborhood where we’re staying and we could see that logo next to the restaurant’s logo, and we were really wondering what’s up with this brand. But it’s definitely a beer-related brand and, as you can see, very, very old. I think we can go even higher in the building. I think so, because I saw that there is more… Let’s see. [Music] Anyway, I want to mention again that the Germans know how to preserve historical buildings and they put a lot of emphasis on this. You can climb the tower here, you just need a ticket. Let’s exit! I think we can exist, right? Shall we take the elevator out? Sure, come on. [Music] At 11:00 every day, the clock in the New City Hall plays a very special song. For 15 minutes you can watch this show, if I can call it that. And, interestingly, this song was played at the wedding of a very important king here in Bavaria. [Music] Even if the City Hall building was impressive inside, I don’t think it’s any less… It’s not disappointing on the outside. Right. We can see it decorated with various statues and gothic elements, which give it a touch of grandeur. No wonder it is the main building in the city. Germany’s richest state, Bavaria, and on the pavement… As proof, on the pavement we can see asparagus and strawberries. We are heading to the Frauenkirche, a cathedral whose name we encounter in many cities of Germany, such as Dresden, which we have already visited, but also Nuremberg, whose vlog you can find on our channel. It is a slightly unusual cathedral compared to the others in the city, because it has these two towers and the spires are different. As I told you a little earlier, it is also the symbol of the city of Munich. [Music] What is interesting in the Frauenkirche is a footprint at the main entrance to the church. And the legend says that the inhabitants of the city, in order to complete the construction of the cathedral in 20 years, made a pact with the devil. They sat at the table with him and took exactly the amount of money they needed to be able to complete the cathedral, with the only condition that they did not add windows to the cathedral. They broke their covenant, and that’s why we find this print on the floor of the cathedral, because that’s how the devil showed his anger. And on this occasion, when he stepped very heavily on the floor, he also cursed the inhabitants of the city to be unlucky for the duration of their lives. The entrance to the cathedral is darker. It’s the darkest spot in the cathedral, and when he first came in, he was pleased that there wasn’t so much light, but he went on, and when he first came across these windows that are, like, he said, “Well, what have you been doing here?”, you know? Yes, but then he realized they broke the pact. We head to the Residenz, the former royal palace of the Bavarian ruling Wittlesbach family. We are right at the entrance of the museum, where we are greeted by a set of statues representing the labors of Hercules after he was punished for killing his family members. The function of the palace as the principal residence and seat of government of the rulers is still reflected in its architecture and interior design. Here, we can still admire the original decorations, such as pieces of furniture, paintings, tapestries or religious objects. A real treasure! Thus, we have the opportunity to take a short trip in time and imagine how the rulers of Bavaria lived. The room we are in now and that you can see is called the Antiquarium and it houses a lot of statues and works of art from the ancient Roman period. It is indeed a very impressive room and hall, with frescoes on both the walls and the ceiling. And it’s not for nothing that it’s the most Instagrammable place in Munich, not just from this palace. And I actually stood in line so I could take a picture here, and as you can see in the back, there are quite a few tourists. [Music] [Music] When I read that the palace has 130 rooms, 10 of which are the treasury, that it also has a church and the inner gardens, I didn’t think it was that impressive, but walking around it, I actually got tired. We now pass from one room to another without looking very much at all the details. It’s really impressive, but you need at least half a day to explore it like that in peace. But it’s tiring, I must admit I’m tired of seeing so much wealth. And the ticket we have for the palace also includes entrance to the Royal Theater which, as you can see, is absolutely impressive. This I think was the royal lodge. More than sure. Very impressive. The theater is named after the architect who designed it, François Cuvilliés, and was built in the 18th century as the personal theater of Elector Maximilian Joseph III. The theater building was destroyed during the Second World War, but later restored to the form we see today. The elaborately carved decorations on the floors frame the theater hall in the Bavarian rococo style, being a true work of art. We are located in Odeon Platz, Feldherrnhalle. If you will find that there is a similarity between the loggia that is currently, unfortunately, under renovation and what we saw in Florence, it is not by chance. King Louis I, Ludvig I, excuse me, who was a great admirer of Italian art, wanted to have something similar to what he saw in Florence and here in Munich. Unfortunately, all this space is also tied to a less pleasant moment in history. It’s where Hitler started the coup in ’23. Because the visit to the city made us hungry, being quite late after our meal time in general, we stopped at one of the most famous breweries in the city, which is called the Hofbräuhaus, and in the 17th century it was even the royal brewery of the Bavarian ruling family, where only they and their guests had access. It was only in the 19th century that it was opened to the public, on the occasion of the wedding of King Louis I. And the legend says that, every year on the anniversary of his marriage, a very big party was organized here for the whole city, this being the original event that formed the basis of the well-known Oktoberfest festival. In the 1920s, this is where Hitler presented his 25-point program, which led to what we know very well happened. And I wanted to say something else. The atmosphere is very reminiscent of what we find again in Bucharest, at the H Brewery. It’s exactly the same thing. Very large portions, traditional German food. I had some baked pork, with a special beer sauce and a piece of mice, I think it’s grilled, with some potato dumplings, I think, and a small pint, 0.5 liters, of beer. It’s a glass, ma. Well, that’s how it was written, ma. 0.5 liters. do you realize It’s ok. Good. And I got a Viennese schnitzel, with potato salad and cranberry jam, which I’m super convinced will be good. And we come back with the bill. The bill came. Our dishes were up to €20 each and drinks somewhere between €4 and €6. Some prices, I think, more than decent for where we are, because that amazes me. I expected it to be at least 10%-15% more , but I think it was fine for where we are, right in the city center, and the food and service are very very good, very large portions and we are full. Now we’re ready to explore what’s left of the city. We are located in the English Gardens, Munich’s largest park, right on the Isar River, a well-known spot for, you won’t believe, surfers. So, as you can see, right at the exit from under the bridge, the river forms a huge wave, a temptation for professional and amateur surfers. The place is fenced off for a very good reason, because quite recently someone died right here trying to ride the wave. I also discovered the place where apparently you are allowed to ride the wave. Or not. Judging by these signs, you’re not really allowed to do that thing here. But apparently these guys… It’s quieter here… Yeah. These guys are allowed to do this work here, because there are about five or six of them. If you notice, the same safety measures as the ones we saw a little earlier have not been taken . Yes, on the other side. It was completely closed there. Here it seems to be free. But still the waves are quite strong. And I actually saw one of these guys trying to get on the board and he fell right off. The English Gardens are a real oasis of peace in the middle of Munich, and honestly, I think the name is not necessarily very well chosen, because it looks more like a quiet forest where you can relax after visiting the city, than some specially arranged gardens in the English style. And the fact that the Isar River runs through this park makes it even more wonderful, being a really relaxing atmosphere and you can be close to nature in the middle of the city. How much the Germans enjoy the sun outside. Yes. A gentle summer sun. The Germans, always active, utilize all the available time and all the daylight in various field activities, I might say. Tanning, playing volleyball, surfing. And this was our vlog from Munich. We hope you like it. We found the city delightful and much more airy than Berlin. The atmosphere is much more relaxed and you will see another side of Germany. And if you liked this vlog, don’t forget to like, share, subscribe and more! And see you next time. Bye! So stay tuned if you want to see even more interesting things from the city of Munich and the whole area of ​​Bavaria, because very soon we will show you how you can travel to at least six states for only €58, per transport. Yes. Film behind. Film behind. Film behind. Oh wait! Let me film… But… [Music]
