8:36 am
munich is the capital of the state of bavaria 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 sites to see. for instance, the frauenkirche the victor alley unmocked and audience cuts. munich also has an impressive array of art venues. over 60 museums and galleries vie for attention. here
8:37 am
i'm going to spend some time in one of those museums to be not critique. 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 harvest story and she'll be revealing some of the secrets of the idea of who takes treasures if not for anything in verse. let's have a look at this world famous self-portrait of the, of my members. one of the it's this self-portrait with fur trimmed robe. why did i do a pinch himself in this pose, the pores of the mind via the fact that time artists were more or less unknown nameless, and they were considered craftsman. and the way i do it,
8:38 am
i represented himself here was something completely new. oh yes, that's actually 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 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 officers in the year 333 when he was because after just a quick look at the painting, can you point out alexander, to me, i think that he's on that ridge. sure thing which is being pulled by 3 horses and if that guy, birch about the other is, i'm guessing that's him. if you think so, his rather prominent but interesting you, that's actually darrius. i picked the loser of the battle,
8:39 am
catalina glad i'm assures me that it happens to a lot of museum visitors. i'm not down for me, it's hard to overlook the quote 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. now or in the 17th century, the 30 years war, that this was the tallest work and it determines the proportions here. if that's a clean, it's really the most magnetic self-image you hear in the future could take the thing 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.
8:40 am
i'm not the only one learning something during my educational trip to munich. so did 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 on the bank guy, john langton, in showing a group of american travelers, one of unix most popular attractions, the famous glockenspiel on the old town hall at cats. but this is a very particular group of total diversity of people who come people who are on the whole well educated reflection of what happens in the states, the knowledgeable people. but also people who are inquiring the new people who want to see something new and perhaps hear different perspective. this group of
8:41 am
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 also a 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 latest for rocky road scholars program. childless appear to have a special interest in educational travel. the sort of the they include not just choice, but also talks by professor and other experts. the organization office over the
8:42 am
budget, thousands of benches in 150 countries. the group moves onto munich's pollen kisha. the main thing here is to get the volume of the spillover your manhood to see what the court has gone. but most of the participants appreciate the background knowledge and details they learn. on the top of dawn, other guided tours in germany. this was a bit more thorough, he's definitely got more background. it's much better than sitting home reading about things. just go places and it becomes interesting and touches you. and then you go back and open my mind. for most of these 9 people, seeing the dense was the highlights of the day, it's the former city palace of the varian, princes, and kings. the group. this is only a few special rooms, such as the antiquarian,
8:43 am
but the explanations are comprehensive. carolyn anderson has done a lot of educational traveling babies into the 38 trips. yeah, i like growth scholar. i've been many points of after almost 8 hours, the tour is nearing the end. but everyone in the group is still listening intently . and one should never underestimate travelers, insurance and thirst for knowledge. 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,
8:44 am
so i've decided to spend some time at the munich documentation center for the history of national socialism near the curate exploits historian, doug beadle walks me through the exhibition the how was munich important to the nazis, to the nuts and other to the winston of munich was at the center of the national socialism. this is where the nazi party was founded yama. from here, we have a photo from 1023. a few years after the party was founded and it was the party leader by that. and it was here that he gave notoriety, became more and more popular. because here he's speaking to 1800 people in munich's, burger boy, the whole, those beer halls which are still popular today, offered hitler, a forum, an audience for his speeches. it's where he spoke to the masses and spread his racist and anti-semitic ideology.
8:45 am
he didn't mention how does munich deal with all this today. the fact that this is where it started, and 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 had 68 buildings and 6000 workers to allow me to fully understand the scale of things. legal shows me other places in the area which are also connected to the nazis. sorites. 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
8:46 am

8:50 am
. so this is easy. the ground malt is then steeped in hot water. it's a process known as smashing the so beer you actually, i wouldn't say so. it's a tart is just the word after a while the mashing is done. then comes the lottery, 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 is an image that i don't want or sweet tooth. i didn't try it. but i didn't notice that all of a sweetness has been washed out,
8:51 am
and 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 place pretty soon the 1st, all of the local thought local sewing us their hometowns, and this time we visit. but to colombia, i'm going to and i'm cloudy. else that might mess with justice and together we'd like to show you our city. it's colombia's some capital over someone doesn't require your ip in the us most dollars out to us here at
