Oh, and pedestrians respect the red lights. I still had my old Parisian habits where we cross the street anyhow , and I quickly learned my lesson.
Cars come from anywhere, moreover at full speed. Two or three cars almost ran over me fortunately I have a travel insurance! Since they have to slow down because of a disrespectful pedestrian, they honk at you and yell at you some German slurs. Yeah, Munich has km miles of bicycle path.
Bikes are all over the place, people all use them whenever they need to get around. And with all the green spaces you have in this city English garden notably , and the bicycle paths, I strongly recommend to rent a bike, especially on a sunny day.
Perfect to cross the city, to soak up the local atmosphere and to do things at your own pace. Different companies propose bike rentals, but my hostel was next to the main train station of Munich Hauptbahnhof , where you can rent a bike for a few hours, a whole day, or a few days.
Munich is not always the first city we think about when we decide to go to Germany people go to Berlin. And just next to it the St. Next to Marienplatz and St. Museum located on a discreet street, where you can get in for four euros. The museum recounts the history of bavarian beer, its production, why beer is so important in the bavarian culture, and also the history of oktoberfest.
