between a learning holiday and the regular one you don't have to yourself you know your horizons has a lot to do with getting to know a city's culture as if you were actually living here. you could learn how kings had their houses built on audience plots over the centuries for instance or contemplate the urban arts or watch people surf on the ice bath. and a bit and simply discovering that munich is so much more than beer and tasty food and things that merely because i've been reduced to unfairly it was enough. for the dumb ass when trying to open up and say hey munich has a lot to offer a whole range of culture and learning opportunity that's what. we did against like the big or. little i don't want to reduce munich but i'd still like to just buy. the east a little stuff. apparently educational trips to munich a very popular no matter what. arts culture history or food but before we continue

with our educational offerings here's a brief overview of what you should know about munich. munich is the capital of the state of varia and lies in southern germany within sight of the alps. about one and a half 1000000 people live here and over 8000000 tourists passing through the city annually. munich is probably best known for the world's largest beer festival the october fest. the visitors to the city will find much more than just typical bavarian kaleri treats. there are also many sides to see. for instance. the victory rally unlocked. and audience props.

munich also has an impressive array of art venues. over 60 museums and galleries vie for attention here. i'm going to spend some time in one of those museums. because i want to learn about the art in munich. from a good 700 paintings by european artists from the 14th to the 18th centuries are exhibited here. and. i'm getting a private tour from arjen story and. she'll be revealing some of the secrets of the idea who takes treasures. through. venice let's have a look at this world famous. we have 9 members one thing the self-portrait with fur trimmed robe why did we do a pig himself in this poll. right. now via the fact that time artists were more or

less unknown nameless and they were considered craftsman and the way do have represented himself here was something completely new oh yes that's it he knew for a year 5200 that is this reprint ation of himself bears a resemblance to christ for whom until that point frankly perspectives like this have been reserved. to be could you take a picture of me with do you concede to get with the conceited you've got. the next painting is by i wish i'd offer it depicts the famous battle of alexander officers in the year 333 b.c. . when he just because i'm also just a quick look at the painting can you point out alexander to me i mean i think that he's on that rick sure thing which is being pulled by 3 horses and that guy birch about the other is and i'm guessing that's him. if you think so his rather

prominent but interesting you that's actually daria's. i picked the loser of the battle coverly not blood on the shores me but it happens to a lot of museum visitors. and the counseling it's hard to overlook the cord hanging down from the tablets and if you follow the cord straight down it will lead you to alexander sitting on a horse it's as if your eye is being directed to where you should look in the picture. next comes this huge painting the last judgment by peter. is innocent since you know when that now or in the 17th century of the 30 years war this was the tallest work and it determines the proportions here if the 3 cleats really are the most magnetic self-image you here in the future could take. the 3 here you go to imagine how many. pose in front of it all the last judgment of all

things. that's my cue. i'm not the only one learning something during my educational trip to munich so that a tour group from the us well they were not on their own but with colder that's a nonprofit educational travel organization and we tagged along. the bank. guy john langton in showing a group of american travelers one of munich's most popular attractions the famous glockenspiel on the old town hall at murphy implats. but this is a very particular group of tourists because the diversity of people who come people who are on the whole well educated reflection of what happens in the.

knowledgeable. people but also people who are inquiring the new people who want to see something new and perhaps hear a different perspective. this group of knowledge hungry americans is on a weeklong tour of munich and a very organized by road scholar. they're spending an entire day on the site in munich city center. this is. the. rhodes scholar was founded with the intention of providing educational adventures for older age groups based on the idea of lifelong learning and it's a nonprofit organization so the revenues from these trips can fund other social projects and new programs as well thought out on. the next stop is the lace for rocky. road scholars press. well the

childless who appear to have a special interest in educational travel. they include not just tourists but also talks by professors and other ex-pats. if you're going to a station office over the village 1000 adventures in 150 countries. the group moves onto munich's pollen kisha. the main thing here is just to get the volume of disproving your manhood to see what the court has. gone. for most of the participants appreciate the background knowledge and details they learned on the tour. or done other guided tours in germany this was a bit more thorough he's there for more background it's much better than sitting home reading about things just go places and it becomes interesting and touches you and when you go back in january or open my mind. for most of these 9 people

seeing the dense was the highlight of the day. it's the former city pallets of the varian princes and kings the group visit only a few special rooms such as the antiquarian but the explanations are comprehensive . carolyn anderson has done a lot of educational travelling and in. 38 trips. i like growth scholar. i've been many places and then they've all been out almost 8 hours the tour is nearing the end. but everyone in the group is still listening intently. and one should never underestimate a travelers insurance and festival knowledge. when. learning about the history of a place is often the focus of an educational trip in germany the nazi period in

particular has left its mark on many cities in the country and that includes munich i want to know more about that so i've decided to spend some time at the munich documentation center for the history of national socialism near the critics plops. historian doing evil walks me through the exhibition in how was munich important to the nazis for the nazi nonsense and when. munich was at the center of the national socialism this is where the nazi party was founded on from here we have a photo from 1903 a few years after the party was found that it was the party leader by that and it was here that he gave them as a righty became more and more popular here he's speaking to 1800 people in munich. be a whole. those beer halls which are still popular today offered hitler a forum and audience for his speeches. it's where he spoke to the masses and

spread his racist and anti-semitic ideology. he didn't mention how does munich deal with all this today the fact that this is where it started. in the meantime i mean it takes a very critical approach to this house is financed by the city of munich but the fact that munich was the birthplace of a city that gave rise to the nazi party is a topic that wasn't talked about for a long time with. this documentation center has played a key role in breaking that silence it is situated on the very place where what was known as the brown house once stood that was the party headquarters in the 1930 s. and entire nazi administrative district was constructed in the area it had 68 buildings and 6000 workers. to allow me to fully understand the scale of things the leaders shows me other places in the area which are also connected to the nazis

sorites next door is the former through the ball which housed hitler's office and those of his staff today it houses the university of music and performing arts munich. we continue along b. and i started to what is now the by the sheer luck in this book the very end state bank. and they're still i think it was when it was written the fickle stock appellate originally stood on the spot. that was a small palace for the vacant smart family. and then october 19th $33.00 it became the got start world headquarters. here the nazis planned the persecution of political opponents and jews. a few steps away a memorial commemorates the victims of national socialism.

our final stop is the cruelly spots it was the sight of many nazi spectacles the parades. and this is where i say goodbye to defeat it. now it's time for our weekly be may it's lot as you know you can send us your travel videos and we show him here and check in this time look for york has sent us a video of his educational trip to mexico he has visited the famous mayan ruins of chichen itza and i have to admit i really would have liked to come along. lead. the mood.

a strong muscular guy. that's me right. here so this is easy. the ground malt is then steeped in hot water it's a process known as smashing. the. board so beer you actually i wouldn't say so. it's a toxin is. just the same. after a while the mashing is done. then comes the altering which means separating the liquid from the grain residues we can give it a taste there still no alcohol content at this point. was. as simple as it is this is the multi residue this. is an image that i no longer

sweep through. your head and try it. about one of them you'll notice that all the sweetness has been washed out. the next step would be to add hops to the liquid they give pierrots taste and then yeast is added for fermentation bet makes beer in alcoholic beverage but it's a long process so we only learn the theory but it would be a shame to go home without wetting our whistles so the seminar ends with a tasting of the many different varieties of beer made by the munich group. we can face pretty soon but 1st all of the local thought local sewing us their hometowns and this time we visit but. to colombia. unless i'm dead he says. and i'm cloudy else that might mess with justice and together we'd like to show you our city. it's colombia's salt capital.
