About Munich

Munich, the capital of Bavaria, is Germany's third-largest city with a population of roughly 1.49 million. Situated on the River Isar at the northern edge of the Alpine foothills, it combines baroque heritage with a contemporary urban character. Marienplatz serves as the historic centre, flanked by landmarks such as the Theatinerkirche and the Asamkirche. The Theresienwiese is internationally recognised as the home of Oktoberfest. The Olympiaturm dominates the northern skyline, while the Haidhausen French Quarter offers a distinct, late-19th-century neighbourhood atmosphere alongside local spots like the Schyrenbad open-air pool.
