Munich (V): Miscellaneous

September 2006


Hofbraeuhaus

Touristy, but had ambience and quite good fun (even if food was nothing to write home about). It was an Aussie night to start with, but then the Austrians and the English people joined in.

St Peter's Cathedral

Marie and I climbed up the tower at St. Peter's Cathedral (249 steps!), one of the main churches in the city located just off Marienplatz. It offered us spectacular views of the city.
