claim one thing cold water supplies to last forever. but they claim when the rainstorm. starts march 20th on the g.w. . welcome to another special edition of czech and we're heading off to one of germany's favorite travel destinations but there ian. knop sent his new call inflation and look at the state it will be taking in munich hagen's book and passed all 3 cities with a lot of history and rich in tradition. and we won't be

missing out some of the very includes the nut of that. plane. that stop the capital of the various. claims look up begins this to at the since he's mucky and cuts or alley ladies. i'm in munich and i want to get up there are. plenty of also feature as the bell tower of the city's oldest parish church is called it's known for its spectacular view but. 360 have said. that's kind of exhausting. it's worth the effort though. up here the whole city is spread out before you. blame me for the move. that's the perfect view down

there you can see that square that's the town hall and right behind it the phone. now that i've gotten an overview of the city i could start on my tour it is said that travelling is the best education so i should learn a lot here in munich this city has lots of art history and culture that spans the range of several centuries i have decided to go to an art museum 1st the idea. of a good 700 paintings by european artists from the 14th to the 18th centuries are exhibited here. i'm getting a private tour from art historian kali not loud she'll be revealing some of the secrets of the i.d.p. the critics treasures.

if not for the 1st let's have a look at this world famous self-portrait of. even numbers one thing it is the self-portrait with fur trimmed robe why didn't you appeared himself in this pose a portion of the mind. via the fact that time artists were more or less unknown nameless they were considered craftsman and the way i do have represented himself here was something completely new wheels that filthy new 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 do you get with the conceit to do the. next comes this huge painting the last judgment by peter paul rubens.

this innocent victim you know who not now or in the 17th century the 30 years rule that this was the tallest work and exact herman's the proportions here. it's really the most magnetic self-image here and if you could take. me here you go to imagine how many people pose in front of it all with the last judgment of all things think . that's my cue. now it's time to delve into munich's history i want to learn more about the city's role in the nazi era. a good place to do that is the documentation center for the history of national socialism new spots. historian doug beetle walks me through the exhibition. in the how was munich important to the nazis and not another to

the winston of. munich was the center of the national socialism this is where the nazi party was founded yama from here we have a photo from 1903 a few years after the party was found at once it was the party leader by that and it was here that he gave them to righty became more and more popular because here he's speaking to 1800 people in munich's burger boy be a whole like 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 before that you do start there 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 before. 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 $68.00 buildings and $6000.00 workers. to allow me to fully understand the scale of things needed shows me other places in the area which are also connected to the nazis sorites next door is the former through 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 shoreline this bug the very end state bank .

and there i think was when it was written for the fatal spot originally stood on the spot. that was a small palace for the victim's family. and then october 19th $33.00 it became the gov stop oh headquarters. here the nazis planned the persecution of political opponents and jews a few steps away a memorial commemorates the victims of national socialism. art and history now i'd like to learn a bit more about munich's traditions and one that is centuries old here is beer brewing it and drinking it brewing seminars are offered here regularly this one is being led by dr your stephen of the munich brew mafia. first we hear what beer is

made of water hops malt and east. smells of. good ransom doesn't it. get off my ok now let's fill it up then we start grinding our mult 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. and so beer beer actually i wouldn't say so. it's a tart. this is not. after a while the mashing is done. then comes still altering which means separating the

liquid from the grain residue we can give it a taste there is still no alcohol content at this point. was. as simple as it is this is the multi residue this. isn't a must if you go longer sweet. go ahead and try it. about one of them you'll notice that all the sweetness of them washed out the. next step would be to add hops to the liquid they give periods taste invented yeast is added for fermentation that 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 waiting our whistles so the seminar ends with a tasting of the many different varieties of beer made by the munich group the farmer let's start with union a classic on a munich pale lager and would. be most

likely can hold the beer up to the light this one has a relatively light colored some cloudiness to it. and the beer has a flower recent citrusy. one is going to drink in there. and find the 1st step is delicately sweet it. there's not a lot of carbonation. and when you swallow the there's a bitterness that reflects the moment that's in it for what it was. my visit to munich proves beyond all doubt travelling can be educational even for your taste buds unfortunately my visit to munich is over but it was fun and i have learned a lot arts culture history of all there i have to admit munich's really got something. mixed with $10.00 to $1.00 of the oldest cities in bavaria indeed in the whole of germany. we call

this going to show us. i'm standing above the danube over on the shore you can see the beautiful old town and this bridge is the stone bridge built at the beginning of the 12th century it's believed to be the oldest surviving bridge in germany. to be honest the bridge doesn't look that old that's because it's been completely restored over the past few years after all reagan's work has a title to the bend and since 2006 its old town including this bridge has been a unesco world heritage site today i want to get to know regensburg what attracts is interested this unesco world heritage site and what does the constant influx of tourists mean for the city this much is certain it's going to be a journey through 2000 years of history. the fact that reagan's burn is such an old and well preserved city is largely thanks to it not having been destroyed in the

wars and its importance as an imperial city in past centuries. a testimony to its former significance is the gothic cathedral. construction began in the 13th century and the cathedral tells us a lot about that time. next to the one in cologne reagan's birth cathedral is considered to be germany's most extraordinary gothic cathedral. and reagan's burg was not only important because it became a bishop seat fairly early on the danube was a significant trade and traffic route. and here on its banks in the old town hall

the perpetual diet was held for over 140 years. from the 17th to the early 19th century and reagan spoke was actually the capital of europe a bit like brussels today. that the virtual diet was convened in $1663.00 just a few years after the 30 is rule. the representatives from all countries from all cities gathered here they were supposed to discuss taxes and military issues but the talks then dragged on for so long that they never came to a final agreement on the whole or at least not for 143 years until 18 of 6 years to someone the takes the one that the. 1 next i have an appointment with my ts fi talk at the noise plots where he shows me the outlines of the former jewish synagogue. dragons virg is like many mediæval cities if you dig here it's likely you'll discover something in 1905 traces of the

2000 year history of the city were uncovered during construction work on nightfall plots. the business of her. work and as you've probably noticed we're underground now about some version with the wall with the ark that's classical middle ages about 700 to 800 years old. it's now if you take a step forward and look down over the parapet you see those stones. they may not look that special but they're from roman times 2000 years ago. and if we go through this arc we come to a 2nd cellar. composes of the what's interesting here is that all the sellers in the documentation center come from the former jewish quarter and reagan's borg.

was his eons and so what we're seeing here are traces of the jewish families in a very can support the excavations took 3 years and archaeologists even found a gold treasure the documentation center doesn't have signs or a big means on sen the structure can only be accessed on guided visits but don't let that scare you off it's really worth it. next to the historic stone bridge you'll find the worst cool the sausage kitchen a true reagan's work classic in the 12th century the building was used as a storage room for construction equipment later it was turned into an eatery and since the beginning of the 19th century it's where reagan's birds most famous bratwurst or charcoal grill sausages are made.

thanks couch 6 on sauerkraut is the name of this typical dish simple but really good. just right if you're feeling package on your tour. on the banks of the danube during peak season this line with cruise ships i meet with pay to most about he has the organization friends of reagan's birds old town it's one of the oldest citizens initiatives in germany and as the name implies is concerned with preserving their city's historical heritage their most recent coup was to prevent the construction of a convention center in the old town to hide from the rain we seek cover and a former royal villa which today houses the bavarian monument office. and while. you previously worked as a tourist guide in regensburg yourself what's your take on this tourism boom i think it's very positive i experienced the humble beginnings when there were 600

guided tours in the year here and now we have more than 6000 guided tours before that makes me happy every time i walk through the city and see people from all over the world enjoying drakensberg for standing to you also understand more critical voices those who say it's too much for regensburg it can know these voices but i don't quite understand them because as in many cities tourism here moves along specific paths just as in prague where it goes from the old town square to the charles bridge to prague castle here it's just over the stone bridge to the cathedral to the old town hall to the left and right of this it's called i don't have to walk right through the crowd when it's busy i can also choose a side street so i can go survey and. if you're ever in reagan's burg and looking for a really great place to eat this is the spot our faith located in the very heart of the city it's a reagan's birth institution the former brewery was taken over by students in 1977 and turned into

a french style beast. what i loved about reagan's very is the fact that there is an interesting story waiting around every corner from the romans to the middle ages to the efforts of solving early european conflicts and the reichstag plus the regional specialities are delicious no wonder really the very after all. alex 3rd and last stop is past the city lines on the banks of 3 with this. this is where the danube and is reversed meet.

and bright in the middle of it all is the beautiful old town. the rivers are both a blessing and a curse think may pass all prone to floods but for centuries the waterways were important trading routes the wealth brought to the city is reflected in its architecture. for example the festo bios it's almost 800 years old and one of the largest surviving mediæval fortress complexes in europe. from the top there is a great view over the city of 3 rivers. i've always wanted to visit possible because of its special location and of course when i'm here i'll do a hike in the bavarian forest a popular destination not too far from possible. possible is not only been shaped by its 3 rivers the city's former rulers also left their mark with their magnificent churches and castles their story is told in the 1st of all as museums

it's closed during the winter and reopens in mid march but they let me inside for a look. this is where in 1217 vishal pyrrhic the 2nd was given the title of prince bishop by the emperor of the bishops of possible became the spiritual and secular rulers over the city for generations the 1st oboes was home to the prince bishops. in the museum you can find out how passages old town was built in the 17th century most of the houses burn. so you tell you architects were called to rebuild the city in baroque style and that's how they designed possible. possibles publicity brochures describe it as the mary in venice and it's true with its italian the flair and narrow lanes it's one of the prettiest cities and

a very young. it has many striking churches and monasteries there are about 50 in all the bishopric of possible once extended as far as hungry. st stephen's cathedral is in the middle of the old town the fact that it's one of germany's largest parag churches becomes specially evident once you're inside. everything here testifies to the wealth and power of possibles prince bishops. cathedrals organise famous with its 17974 pipes it's the largest of its kind in the world.

the town hall is also designed in italian baroque style but the definitely sounds the variance. on the tele there are markers showing flood levels over the past centuries it's hard to imagine. now i'm eating in from the ah going are just association you'll be giving me a tour of who gets a narrow street parallel to the danube it's where many. the artists have their studios. fergus is very popular with visitors specially in the summer and.

all the houses here date from the middle ages and our list of buildings. had special adult vegas's i gotta this is not really the architecture of course but we artists also might to add a bit of color you know tourists walk through here and we want to attract their attention we have lots of studios and we want to try to make art more accessible this week so we make an effort painted on all those times of aerial installations and all these nations in one small space and it works beautifully on this one the sort of my journey continues i've left paso and i'm on my way to the very end forest just an hour away from the city the region is a popular destination for hiking skiing and relaxing. on. various forests is a low mountain range

a 100 kilometers in length on the border between the various and the czech republic the national park is in the south of the forest here it's allowed to grow as nature intended without human intervention. the tree top walk is one of the highlights of the bavarian forest it's open all year round. the walkway extends through the forest between 8 and 25 meters above the ground. what does the forest sound like what animals live here at 7 learning stations you can find out more about the life and habitats of the forest for extra fun there are

other activities like balance beams and adventure trails. but the highlight with the emphasis on high is the treat our. this part of the walkway rises in the spiral circling around 3 ancient trees. at the top there is a beauty platform 44 meters above the ground. in general you have a great view from up here over the bavarian forest unfortunately not today anyway i enjoyed coming up here and this is where my tour of the bavarian forest and if you're a travel fan like me and like to check out new this nation every day please take a look at our instagram account d w travel see you next time. hundreds
