but that one little thing is the one i have serious problems on a personal level and i was unable to live there but that much i'm going to. want to know their story in full migrants terrified and reliable information for margaret's. i'm in munich and i want to get out there.

cold feature as the bell tower of the city's oldest parish church is called is known for its spectacular view but. 360 s. . that's kind of exhausting. it's worth the effort though. up here the whole city is spread out before you. think. that's the perfect view down there you can see that's where that's the town hall and right behind the throne. munich is packed with cultural treasures that makes it a favorite destination for history and culture buffs from all over the world. today i want to find out what munich's got to offer for tourists who come here. for

education well what's on offer who uses these offers and where's the difference between an educational trip and a normal holiday well i'm looking for answers and you're coming along. well tag along with the group of americans as they tour munich. meet 2 colombians who sure surround their hometown back iraq. and we get it too often mexico's yucatan peninsula in this week's your video. first off to get an idea of what it may be casual trip is i mean on the munich tourist board on moving parts. from what am i getting learning adventures usually start here right. yeah i did you can yes the standard ones do it's from here that munich involved this is actually the intersection of the 2 districts and ling and.

they were older than me and itself the cell to pass through here and salt was sold by the machines i left mary's column. this is where the monks lived which is where munich got its name and this was the main market square when it got to be too small the market moved to the victim. and this square survived because nobody was allowed to build on it we had no. right on machine plots you'll find the don't use it a traditional restaurant popular with tourists and locals alike it serves all kinds of the various specialties from port knuckles to veal sausage and if you're lucky musical a compliment. because . we're ordering what's known as a bullet side typical for munich. but. what's. on the board feel to it. as a they've got

a variety of bavarian specialties here in the cheese corn and we've got the all but stout specialty consisting of come under and very rich but very tasty with red onions and we have various sausages here and that's pork lard with cracklings and dried onions this is an educational trip for me is sampling the local specialty state part of that kind. of business cause that's really not like it's callin there ass has absolutely culture yes we have a lot of high culture orchestras 60 museums everything the heart desires in terms of classical and contemporary arts. and then we're going to the broad spectrum of everyday culture as beer and beer gardens eating and drinking and spending time together. all this makes it possible even for visitors to take part in the city's life and activities. and what is the difference between

a learning holiday and the regular one you don't have to just if you have a widening your horizons has a lot to do with getting to know 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 of other and the building simply discovering that munich is so much more than beer and tasty food. things that munich is i can reduce to unfairly it was an awful. when trying to open up and say hey man it has a lot to offer a whole range of culture and learning opportunities. like they've been able. to do i don't want to reduce muni but i'd still like to just plain bad advice to use the 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 you nick. munich is the capital of the state of beriah 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. but visitors to the city will find much more than just typical bavarian kaleri treats. there are also many sides to see. for instance. the victor alley unmocked. and audience tops.

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. 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 hard historian. she'll be revealing some of the secrets of the i did not boutiques treasures. first let's have a look at this world famous. even the numbers one. this self-portrait with fur trimmed robe why did i do a pinch himself in this. at the coup vi of 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 right he knew for the year 50100 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 conceit to do that. the next painting is by i wish i'd offer it depicts the famous battle of alexander of 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 if i don't find that he's on that rick sure thing which is being pulled by 3 horses and if that guy birch about the other is and i'm guessing that's him. if you think so his

rather prominent but interesting me that's actually darrius i picked the loser of the battle catalina cloud on the surest me that it happens to a lot of museum visitors. undercounting it's hard to overlook the chord hanging down from the tablets and if you follow the cord straight down it will lead you to alexander sitting on a horse he often feel it's as if your eye is being directed to where you should look in the picture in the. next comes this huge painting the last judgment by peter. think you know not now or in the 17th century the 30 years rule that this was the tallest work and it determines the proportions here if that's a cleats really the most magnetic self-image you hear in the future could take. the thing here and there you go to imagine how many. people 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 the 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. in the main. 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. but this is a very particular group of to. diversity of people who come people who are on the whole well educated reflection of what happens in the creation system

knowledgeable. people but also people who are inquiring the new people who want to see something new and perhaps hear a different perspective. you know this group of knowledge hungry americans is on a weeklong tour of munich and a very organized by road scholar. so. they're spending an entire day on the site in munich city center. this is. 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 on to. the next stop is the lace for rocky. road scholars to. all of the

travelers who appear to have a special interest in educational travel for the they include not just tourists but also talks by professors and other experts. the organization office over the budget 1000 adventures in 150 countries. the group moves on to munich fallen kisha. the main thing here is just to get the volume of the school the wanted to see what the court has. gone. for most of the participants appreciate the background knowledge and details they learned on the top. down other guided tours in germany this was a bit more thorough he's there find out more background it's much better than sitting home reading about things just go poisons and it becomes interesting and touches you and then you go back in january or in my mind. for most of these 9 people seeing the dense was the highlight of the day it's the former city

palettes of the varian princes and kings the group visits only a few special rooms such as the antiquarian but the explanations are comprehensive . carolyn anderson has done a lot of educational travelling and. 38 trips. yeah i like growth scholar. i've been there. a little after almost 8 alice the tour is nearing the end. but everyone in the group is still listening intently. and one should never underestimate 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 curate exploits . historian dirk evil walks me through the exhibition in how was munich important to the nazis to the nuts and other to the. munich was the center of the national socialism this is where the nazi party was founded. 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 literati 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 and before that in the stuff 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 the 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. an 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 legal shows me other places in the area which are also connected to the nazis. next

door is the former feudal bowl 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 solemnest bug the very end state bank. and there i think was when it does work with the fatal spark of 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 stop will happen which is just out. 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 truly 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 we showing here and check in this time 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. glenn.

that's.

odd art history and culture i've already gotten to experience all those aspects often education oriented holiday now i'd like to find out more about munich's traditions and one that centuries old here involve spear brewing it and drinking it well everybody was nice to have you here. growing seminars are offered here regularly this one is being led by god to them of the munich brew mafia. first we hear what beer is made of water pops malt and east. it smells a bit rancid doesn't it. get off of ok now let's fill it up then we start grinding our models we've got 3 kilos here and we need

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. so beer you actually i wouldn't say so. it's a bit tart. as the stuff. after a while the mashing is done. then comes the lottery which means separating the liquid from the grain residues we can give it a taste there is still no alcohol content at this point. as. i think was it is this is the multi residue this. isn't

a must i no longer sweep through. your head and try it. about one of them don't understand all the sweetness have been washed out to the. next step would be to add hops to the liquid they give periods taste and then yeast is added for fermentation vet makes beer an 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. it up to columbia. unless i'm getting. and i'm cloudy else that might mess with justice and together we'd like to show you our city. is colombia's salt capital.
