Munich: The Monocle Travel Guide Series Book

Munich is the capital of one of the oldest?ÿstates in Europe so naturally its affinity with?ÿtradition runs deep. Yet, as well as having one?ÿfoot in the old world, this southern German?ÿcity has another firmly planted in the new ƒ???ÿand thatƒ??s part of its undeniable charm. This?ÿhappy balance, along with a strong and stable?ÿeconomy, encourages entrepreneurialism,?ÿattracts big business and is increasingly?ÿfostering creativity.

The Monocle Travel Guide to Munich will help?ÿyou navigate the cross-section of history and?ÿmodernity. Weƒ??ll point you in the direction of?ÿour favourite emerging and established familyrun hotels and steer you towards the lively?ÿkitchens serving the best Bavarian classics.?ÿWeƒ??ll also map out the postwar modernist?ÿstructures and rococo landmarks worth seeing?ÿand recommend where you should grab your?ÿculture fix, from a Florentine-style 19th-century villa to a former power plant.

Of course, no tour of the Bavarian capital would?ÿbe complete without a stopover (or two) at one?ÿof its jolly Bierg??rten ƒ?? just be sure to pick up?ÿyour Tracht from one of the cityƒ??s specialist?ÿretailers first.
