5 days in Munich Itinerary

Often described as the city of laptops and lederhosen, Munich is an international center of business, engineering, research, and medicine that still maintains a rich cultural heritage and age-old traditions.

Escape the urban bustle at Eibsee and Ferchensee Lake. Museum-lovers will get to explore Audi Museum and Alte Pinakothek. Change things up with these side-trips from Munich: Schloss Linderhof (in Ettal), Altstadt von Fuessen (in Fussen) and Walhalla (in Donaustauf). There's lots more to do: don't miss a visit to Cathedral of St Peter's, explore the historical opulence of Schloss Hohenschwangau, hunt for treasures at Viktualienmarkt, and contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Asamkirche.
