Munich, Germany
Munich, the capital and third largest city in Germany, holds about 1.42 million people. The city's motto is "München mag dich," which translated in English means "Munich likes you." One of the first sites we saw after getting off our airplane was the Allianz Arena, shown above. We had the opportunity to visit the Nymphenburg Palace, BMW Headquarters and The Hofbräuhaus am Platzl. During our stay in Munich, we luckily arrived just as the soccer championship was about to occur. Bayern Munich played against Borussia Dortmund and the citizens of Munich were more than excited to watch the match. I had the opportunity of watching a public viewing of the soccer game on the same field where Oktoberfest is held annually. It was amazing to watch Bayern Munich win and I joined the happy citizens of Munich in celebrating the big game.
