I lived in Bavaria (Augsburg) for 3 years while in the US Army. You cannot appreciate its beauty until you see it in person. The German people are very proud of their country and they are very environmentally conscious. The cities are very clean and the people very warm. Munich has so much history. Someday, I hope to make it back.

Same here! I was there last June with some family, and it was a dream come true for me. I had always wanted to go to Europe since I was young.

Hello Dr. Anna

[@michaelsullivan1052]

Bavaria is absolutely stunning. I was there 30 years ago. I visited the castles of Ludwig II. I remember sitting on the balcony of my hotel at night, looking out to see both Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau castles light up at night. It really felt magical. I've been to Munich twice and it is such a great city. Would love to go back.

[@Tridhos]

Wonderful part of Germany, Munich is a great city wonderful food, beer and lots to see.

[@Themightyfinder1]

***** As somebody living in Berlin for now about 20 years, I can definitely deny.

[@Themightyfinder1]

Well, I personally think Berlin is terrible compared to Munich ;-) And I know many other folks from Berlin who share my opinion. So what exactly makes you think that yours is the right one? I guess it really is a matter of personal favor.

[@Themightyfinder1]

Well, I could at least give the same amount of arguments pro Munich and contra Berlin. But like I said, it is simply pointless to discuss something that completely basics on personal favor and preferences. Therefore, I find it somehow wrong to tell somebody "this is the better city because xxx...". Just let them find out for themselves :)

[@Tridhos]

I was in Berlin several years ago my previous visit to that was many years before the Berlin Wall came down. I was amazed at the changes that had already been made and the way this great capital city was being returned to its former glory. I wouldn't even attempt to compare Munich with Berlin both have their own attractions and I would urge people to visit both. If you visit Berlin then prior to your visit go on the internet and book a visit to the Reichstag I gather it must be booked in advance so I was disappointed. However it is a city I plan on returning to, I want to do the river cruise along the Elbe and also repeat the Berlin city river cruise a wonderful way to see the city.

[@Themightyfinder1]

Thats what I meant, they both have their very special attractions :) and are pretty hard, if not impossible to compare

Hey Doug....we are going there late fall (mid-November). How many days did you spend to visit all this region? And does traveling in late fall makes sense?

[@northernwombat8217]

***** Munich really rocks! did you travel there already?

[@northernwombat8217]

Chris B Sure! this is a lovely region!

[@mattesrocket]

mid- November is the worst time to visit middle and northern Europe, concerning weather and many tourist locations are closed then. For example places in the nice nature are not able to visit. But the climate Change will give you a little chance that you can get nice weather even in November, but usually it is windy, rainy and cold +15 to -5 degrees Celsius.

[@shonyagura8508]

Visited Munchen once recently and to me it was the nicest town in Germany (been to different parts over the years). One striking feature is that every eatery has beer and every time you eat you've gotta drink different beers in humongous mugs. Another striking fact is that no matter how many beers you drink a day, you never get drunk, unlike American beer, flat but alcoholic. A third striking feature is that the typical German (or what they consider Bavarian) homes are located in a small part of the town, the rest are typical new European design like boxed multi storey apartment buildings, each of different colors. The Marienplatz is the hub for people and is the main attraction for everyone.

When in the Army I lived for a year in Bad Aibling, about fifty miles east of Munich near the Austrian border at Salzburg. Fascinatingly beautiful part of the world. Watching this Steves' program reminds me of that area. I went to Munich many times but never to Salzburg. I wished I could have but that was during the Cold War, long before the European Union.

I love this man's travelogues(?). If I ever won the lottery, I would retire in Bavaria...........in the Alps, of course. When I was stationed in Germany (1980-1982), I traveled to the Alps 4 or 5 times. I remember being up in the Alps and staying at a mountaintop gasthaus and seeing all the wildflowers and feeling the ambient beauty of the place. I traveled to a small village and watched the cows return from their high pasture and the way the cattle would stop when one of them would stop and get a drink of water at a fountain. When the cow was satiated, they would continue on, cow bells and all. What an enchanting place.
