so cold for almost all that yeah he's been in the film we have played golf didn't surprise me i saw it coming 10 years before the flood sure about whom i mean. what does it take to change the course of history. raising the curtain start september 30th on d w. october festing munich sees millions of tourists flocking to the bavarian capital every year. to cut stieg joins the masses for the world's biggest butte festival. but the rest of the year is something to offer to. his officer travel tips for

summer. and she has no shortage of ideas for winter even welcome to his check in 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 1st beer. this will be a long day that's for sure. of

course when you go to the october fest and you want to look the part traditional costumes are really popular during october fest. for. women have filmed and the men have leather pants leader who was. the leader was it's a leader who's a special of course so do you only see them at october 1st or will you see them at the office to water i know that in that if you want to win this region later has an unjust war interest. with talking to get tourists like to wear them to get into the swing of things and i'm told to fish but for us they're just a pair of pants we'd wear on an ordinary day. talking. about yes you would look like

a real bavarian boy by you know showing. 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 where you from. i was like that's all right then why are you here 1st celebrating everybody it's the 1st time you're here yeah 1st time in all dressed up or dressed up yeah we're going to go this is how the germans dress it tough. yes i actually do. just what do you like about october 1st if you well just

look around you have this fear there trouble 1st is one of a kind because of it. everything here is about having fun but that doesn't mean it's only build 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. or this right here it's called how did luke us get the lucas of course i've got to try it. doesn't stand 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 with the whack it nice and flatten the right in the middle and 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 dispute family has operated these bumper cars at the october fest for years. it is the midst of this do you remember your 1st october fest from within the yankee 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 not the console take these are big visits this deposition that will not bumper cars have been around for about 100 years so why are they still popular. that isn't some pop it's not the whole there are a few things that make bumper cars special sit 1st of all you driving yourself you can go wild out the night a small tame whatever you like to make and then 2 people can ride in a single car at the same time so you can ride someone else to ride along any time you want to it's because you know it's i could but i'm not let me get in there is the element of seeing and with being seen all the flirting and all that is not all

of that is part of the bumper car tradition this is i've. got all of us would have the guts to go but think the odds are there rules or is it a free for all. guy gets caught in there aren't really any rules to allow alcohol this but of course to keep an eye out to make sure nothing happens doesn't expose you we've also got a lot of children on the doctor and parents with kids to do so we have to make sure nothing out there so 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 either but that's ok thank you miss that is not. 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. since 1979. takes you up almost 50

meters and is something of a landmark here at the october fest. that day at the october fest off course wouldn't be complete without a visit to one of the many people billions. there are 14 big tents in all which can hold up to 100000 people i'm in the hot tent one of the largest and october fest. she'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. the. the.

5. 5. 5 if you're here for the 1st time remember the beer at october fest is a bit stronger then your regular 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 contagious. 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 sure. if i made it an entire day at the october fest that meant for me one. leader of beer walking several

kilometers and a spiritual morse is astonishing how great this event can be and no i can understand why so many people chose 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 flirtation starts her 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 sunglasses 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 and me and people here have

a reputation of being quite sporty and no wonder biking hiking swimming everything and outdoor fan could 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 a 15 minute 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 football fields pretty impressive. watching other people. 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 weight surface for 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 my supposed . to. there is correct with the variance that 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 there are people chatting having fun where ever you look and that is a big part of a very in lifestyle alexina that's quite unimaginable without the most of the very end of all the bridges in the exactly here i think there could be a connection there. so that's enough chilling i have a challenge ahead of me. and. 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 a lympics stadium it was built for the $972.00 games i signed up for an architectural tour of the stadium it's about 2 hours long and there's. a lot to be

learned about this masterpiece of engineering. for example the ted cruz is strong enough to withstand the wildest storms and heaviest snow falls and i personally got to put that disability to the test to. prove. i could take the stairs on the other side to get down but there is a 1st or a 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 eloise's in the middle of the city is that ease over people spend their lunch

breaks their weekends and even their nights here part of the river and its banks were in their early renovated over the last couple of years given the people of munich and new leisure hotspots of the water used to be forced into a narrow can now but now it's free to run its natural course again. to ease our bike 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 it. to . munich is a paradise for lovers of luxury and this is their shopping district of the. world. definitely not the place for bargain hunters they may have staffs it is munich's of the 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 left i almost feel like i'm in a pizza and italy. puts me in a real holiday mood. and it wouldn't be a real holiday without a little souvenir let's see what me and it 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 the critical one i had great weather so i could hang out in the sun i pretty much created the bear garden but i burned up all my vices calories on the bike i got to climb to the very top of one of the unix most emblematic buildings not bad for a single day so i think i deserve a treat and i already have something in the. winter in munich can be pretty chilly. but that doesn't stop the tourist the 1st stop for. any visitors is the city hall famous for its glockenspiel.

nicole 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. first we go to the original hof brand house in unix old town. still space to sit at lunch time during the week the story main hall has space for 1300 people. muslim spare guy is the famous beer halls manager and shows me around the upstairs banquet hall is regularly used for events for example a weekly dance night at home for house isn't just for tourists.

or. bad why is the munich call for a house so famous and for me i mean because 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 ago and it reopened as a restaurant the way you see it now in 897 and i was just before that it was a brewery there is no one this before and why is it so famous wants one because it's always been here and has always played a big part in people's lives and to mention the movie that or next week that one city stand the regulars have a special privilege here they can store in their own beer mugs and cheese you know the right you know the beer mug treasure chest is a once in a time when the 1972 olympics were 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. who can i just be at some heights they must get this sort of the good side and i was never not in the mood for a beer. me this is. you think yeah yeah i like drinking beer this 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 people you already know these are in kenya that i'm standing here brings people closer together the dimensions of. let's see how things go for me with the regulars. i'm sure you have a place for your own moment to. 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 is for sure what that depends but to the not for me are a it's on and then you're still up right or a stumbling out of here or it's right or to oh no then i fall over. yeah that was. the end. of. the. winter time in munich is also the time for a very encouraging if you come across the board 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. that's how it's not made completely of would. be right it's made of wood except for the iron ring here keeping it together it's classic just like you'd find it your grandfather's house could be maybe the underside of his was flatter depends on your taste and. thanks to the white it's lines really well if you give it some momentum

. or as heavy as it was over i know this is the one for kids and conditional to close and what is that supposed to mean the swing is the most important thing in counting that's what i think ok i'm ok show me i'm a 42. if that's good too short of a 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 the closeness to the stone one point of them is all the house is the one block yes it's a wooden block or and scolded bottom you play around it and whoever has the most points when was it was just with. a disappearance the world goes on to start the ball in the soup dealt. with the combat 70.

3rd about 3 hours freestyle but it's a right 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 linger. because i want to get to the mountains it's just 60 kilometers away and easily reachable by train. in just an hour i'm at the alpine foothills. when we get

there we'll have to write in the piece for some sledding. that may help me out works is this my sled. ok it's not that because every day i don't. you know one believe you live from above not from below yeah that's important for real otherwise you'll get tangled and pulled up if you're going to lift 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 it'll go by itself. and i'm ready to go i think but you'll help me write this if you get a double dip of course. as well. if you can also get ready set. go.

this number is 800 meters long and quite steep so you can really pick up some speed and thanks to the lifts i definitely have to go up. and down again. in and around you'll find everything the heart can possibly desire of a little winter getaway a huge selection of museums and bunk physical activities the obligatory beer and this winter wonderland just around the corner the perfect cover to.
