Other places worth the walk, and what each one costs.
Dachau Memorial
Dachau opened on March 22, 1933, barely seven weeks after the Nazi seizure of power, making it the first concentration camp in the Third Reich and the administrative model for every camp that followed.
Deutsches Museum
The Deutsches Museum on Museumsinsel in the Isar holds approximately 125,000 objects across 50 fields of science and technology, making it the largest science museum in the world by collection size.
Eisbach Wave
Standing wave on the Eisbach river at the southern edge of the Englischer Garten, where surfers ride year-round. One of Munich's most photographed spectacles. The wave is fast and only for experienced surfers, but watching from the bridge is free entertainment.
Englischer Garten
One of the world's largest urban parks, larger than Central Park and Hyde Park. The Eisbachwelle (river surfing wave) at the southern entrance, the Chinesischer Turm beer garden, and the Monopteros temple viewpoint are the anchor spots. The park runs for 5 kilometers along the Isar river. Free, open, and central to Munich life.
Hofbrauhaus
The Hofbrauhaus is Munich's most famous beer hall, a cavernous room of long wooden tables, brass bands, and one-liter Masskrug steins. Free to enter.
