don't tell me that he wasn't don't don't tell me and that's enough. and the joint should come i feel no need. to feel the sense of news of your highness. the promise code has to come up and on. top enough. october fest in munich sees millions of tourists flocking to the bavarian capital every year. to cut stieg and joins the masses for the world's biggest buf

estable. but the rest of the year is something to offer to. officer travel tips for summer. and she has no shortage of ideas for winter either welcome to this chicken special all about munich. this year i will be one of at least $5000000.00 visitors to the october fest in munich i'm looking forward to the fun rights and party tents and of course i want to try the typical october fest beer. and. this will be a long day. that's for sure. of

course when you go to the october fest if you want to look the part traditional costumes are really popular during october fest. for. women have and for men half leather pants leader who was. the leader was a leader was a special of course so do you only see them at october 1st or will you see them at the office too watauga. owns it in that if you want it is in this region plato's and aren't just worn for special events with cotton get tourists like to wear them to get into the swing of things and i'm too old to fish but for us they're just a pair of pants we'd wear on an ordinary day. talking.

about the enjoy it look like a real very emboldened by you to show you all of. that thanks alex. so now i'm ready to go check out the festival one tip if you come here to take public transportation it's much faster. there's a lot going on here early in the morning so let me talk to a few visitors who are you from. that i was in fact all right then why are you here was celebrating us everybody. it's the 1st time you're here yeah 1st time in

all dressed up we're just going to go this is how the germans dress it up yes i said we do. just what do you like about october festival you well just look around you have this fear there of trouble 1st is one of a kind because of. everything here is about having fun but that doesn't mean it's only both fear the october fest is a real fun fair with rights and games and some of them have a long tradition for example throwing it cans. for this right here it's called how did luke us get the lucas of course i've got to try it. but it was then what do i need to do not to look like a fool so that's the guy well you have to position yourself right i'm a nut and then it's just like any other hammer the same principle if you take the

hammer keep the back of the hand loose in the whack it nice and flat on the right in the middle that's the most important part and the rest is easy ok i stop and that's as i get the picture oh. yeah it's all right. it's harder than it looks. here's another classic bumper cars these small electric cars aren't easy to steer but there are lots of fun even or maybe specially when you crash bumper cars have to stay true to their roots not like other fun rights which keep getting higher and faster but they're very popular.

the distant family has operated these bumper cars at the october fest for years. and this is mr distel do you remember your 1st october 1st from within the iraqi or yeah my 1st october 1st i was just a kid we loved it but it was quieter than not as wild and hectic as it is now 6 months old take to forbid visits is that if there's one that will not bumper cars have been around for about 100 years so why are they still popular songs like. that is in some pop it's not the whole there are a few things that make bumper car special 1st of all you drive yourself you can go why all of the nice small tame one over here like to make and then 2 people can ride in a single car at the same time so you can guide someone else to ride along any time

you want you can eat outside but i not let me name in there is the element of seeing and with being seen on the flirting and all that is not all of that is part of the bumper car tradition this is i thought i'll just go to the classic. i can feel the love are there routes or is it a free for all. i think it's got it well there aren't really any rules when we do allow alcohol is but of course to keep an eye out to make sure nothing happens for the fun stuff doesn't expose you we've also got a lot of children not me doctrinal parents with kids to do so we have to make sure nothing out there for every now and then you have to jump in and say something's wrong but in the evenings things tend to get down to business like it's the absence of it other than the kid is ok thank you mr this. meanwhile it's even being at october fest to get a bird's eye view i'll go on the ferris wheel.

this ferris wheel has been here since 1979. and it takes off almost 50 meters and is something of a landmark here at the october fest. the day at the october fest off course wouldn't be complete without a visit to one of the many prevail yes. there are 14 big tents in all which can hold up to 100000 people i'm in the hot tent one of the largest at october fest. you'll always find a free spot during the day but in the evening it's a real challenge is specially on the weekends. the

thank. the. guy if you're here for the 1st time remember the beer at october fest is a bit stronger then you're right below lager otherwise the party might be over soon or they do it like. but it's easy to have a good time here everyone's enjoying themselves and the good news is 10 tejas. so what's my impression of the october fest there's a reason this is called the world's biggest party it's point something a bit very an original i'm. i'm. if i made it an entire

day of the october 1st that meant for me one liter of beer walking several kilometers and a spiritual voice is astonishing how great this event can be and no i can understand why so many people come here every year again and again. october fest only lasts 2 weeks but munich is worth a visit any time of year summer is especially beautiful because flu starts or summer tour of munich on mercury and plots right in the heart of town. near nick on a sunny day and this is all i need my backpack my son nasa is a map so i don't get lost and this guy right here.

today i want to find out what to do on a summer's day in munich people here have a reputation of being quite sporty and no wonder biking hiking swimming everything and outdoor fan can desire they've got it right on their doorstep. even calculated correctly there are more than 1000 kilometers of bike trails in the entire city so let's get going. from marine plots it was only ever 15 minutes bike ride to get here in the very heart of the english garden it's kind of like a green living room for locals and a pretty big 1375 hectors for cycling playing or just hanging out in the sun. in this gigantic urban park is the size of 525. but ball field.

watching other people do sports has always been one of my favorite pastimes. and these kids are the absolute stars of the english garden. wow not bad let's check them out from up close. the ice bucket river runs over a stone step creating a perfect wave surfers from munich and all over the world come here to catch it and show off a bit so you won't find any adventures around these parts. in . time for a trip to the beer garden this is where the day really starts mine with vice was. this is correct with the very end so i've been looking forward to this since i got

here. there are roughly a 1000 beer gardens in munich the biggest one seats an amazing 8000 people today i chose a slightly smaller one this is the house in the english garden with room for only 2500 people still nice and cosy though. the world seems like a better place when you're in a beer garden and there are people in chatting having fun where ever you look and that is a big part of the theory and lifestyle alexina that's quite unimaginable without the most of the very end of all beverages and exactly beer i think there could be a connection there. and. so that's enough chilling i have a challenge ahead of me who will too. as you can see i'm back at dizzying heights but do you recognize aware exactly. yes i'm on top of the unmistakable roof of munich olympic stadium it was built for the $972.00 games i

signed up for an architectural tour of the stadium is about 2 hours long and there's a lot to be learned about this masterpiece of engineering. for example that 10 proof is strong enough to withstand the wildest storms and heaviest snow falls and i personally doubt to put that disability to the test. of her. i could take the stairs on the other side to get down but there is a faster way to get my feet back on the ground. wow what an amazing experience trying to take a few snaps before we head off. to

another oasis in the middle of the city is that easier over people spend their lunch breaks their weekends and even their nights here part of the river and its banks were thoroughly renovated over the last couple of years giving the people of munich and new leisure hotspots the water used to be forced into a narrow can now but now it's free to run its natural course again. these are by trail takes me back to the city center and tolan stretches over 290 kilometers thank god i only have to cycle a tiny part of a. community is a pair. advice for lovers of luxury and this is their shopping district. was . definitely not the place for bargain hunters they may have sas it is munich's

most expensive shopping district. well i guess window shopping isn't that bad either fancy stores lots of cafes and a sunny spot in front of the national theater lovely almost feels like i'm in a pizza in italy. puts me in a real holiday mood. and it wouldn't be a real holiday without a little souvenir let's see what munich has to offer. i'm sure i'll find something here they design a lot of their products themselves and most of them are made in bavaria and like

that even on my travels i try to support small local businesses. and i even found some things for myself. well this is it my very own momentum from my trip to munich and all of the critical one in great leather so i could hang out in the sun i pretty much created the bear garden but i burned out all my vices calories on the bike i got to climb to the very top one of munich's most emblematic buildings not bad for a single day so i think i deserve a treat and i already have something in my. ah . winter in munich can be pretty chilly. but that doesn't stop the tourists

the 1st stop for many visitors is the city hall famous for its glockenspiel. nichol flourish has her own plans for a winter's day in munich already in mind today our visit germany's most famous beer hall the hof bright house later i'll try my hand at curling and with the mountains so close i just can't pass up on the opportunity of a little fun in the snow in the alps. sentenced we go to the original hof brand house in unix old town. there's still space to sit at lunch time during the week you store it main hall has space for 1300 people. and spagetti is the famous beer halls manager and shows me around the up stairs

banquet hall is regularly used for events for example a weekly dance night but home for house isn't just for tourists. or a. bad one why is the muni call for a house so famous taken from a movie cuz we have great beer that's the main reason that's what everyone claims this is open house well in that point house has always been here since 1589 so that's a long time and it reopened as a restaurant the way you see it now in 1897 and i was forced before that it was a brewery and it won this before and why is it so famous long on because it's. always been here it has always played a big part in people's lives and the mention in movie that one city stand the regulars have a special privilege here they can store in their own beer mugs likely be here i'm sure you know you're right the beer mug treasure chest is a once in

a time when the 1972 olympics where here we used glasses to clearly show how much beer was being poured into them. but our regulars said they wanted to hold on to their beer mugs will go into the strongest i'm sick number so they put them into their own drawers which is now the beer mug treasure chest here you know so i mean stein who can i name for angus be out to some heights the most quickly sort of the good side and i was never not in the mood for beer. i mean this is. you think yeah yeah i like drinking beer is disunion because what's nice about beer is you're sitting at a big table chatting with people maybe you've never seen before or needs or people you already know these are in kenya and i'm standing here brings people closer together the dimensions of. let's see how things go for me with the regulars. i'm so do you have a place for your own money to some cities that you hope number 25 so that tells you

a bit about how long i've been here if you did on soft money how many can a regular like yourself drink. what are the bands but to use enough for me our rights and then you're still upright are stumbling out of here or it's a matter to oh no then i fall over. they have no. little bit was the end all. winter time in munich is also the time for a very end curling you know come across the support and most beer gardens here i'm here with the owner of the i was tina keller who's going to show me how it's done. he. doesn't so it's not made completely of wood. every right it's made of wood except for the iron ring here keeping it together it's

classic just like you find it to grandfather's house. maybe the underside of his was flatter depends on your taste and skill but thanks to the white it slides really well if you give it some momentum. as heavy. and this is the one for kids. that the doesn't mean the swing is the most important thing in curling that's what i think ok i'm ok show me. if that's good to short. what's the game's objective what is it about use i'm for goal is to teams play each other on the one that gets closest to the house gets 2 points and closest to the stone one point of them is how the house is the one block yes it's important but all corin's colder bottom you play around it and whoever has the most points away was the one. with. a disability to show you there's also a scar on the so called. combat

savvy. to go and i saw one of the. good about 3 that was freestyle but it's a running to go. well but very encouraging is not so easy but it sure is fun. now let's get out of munich as promised away from the city and into the countryside . to langley's because i want to get to the mountains it's just 60 kilometers away and easily reachable by train.

and just an hour and i'm at the alpine foothills. when we get there we'll head to write in the piece for some sledding. then pick up the outworks is this my sled. ok thought that he was able. you know one full movies from above from below yeah that's important one otherwise you'll get tangled and pulled up. with my feet up. and yes lift your feet up on the sled so you don't get hurt. when you want to get off just let go people go by itself. and then i'm ready to go i think but you'll help me right because you know nothing of course. of. things.

if you can also get ready and set. up go to. the slope is 800 metres long and quite steep so you can really pick up some speed and things to the left i definitely have to go up. and down again. in and around you you'll find everything the heart can possibly desire of a little winter getaway a huge selection of museums fun physical activities the obligatory beer and this

winter wonderland just around the corner the perfect combination.
