A bonus visit to whet your appetite
If an actual trip to Munich isn’t possible just now, you can always enjoy this virtual visit instead. Go on a tour of websites, YouTube videos, books and films which will whet your appetite for the cultural and historical aspects of the city. Pay virtual visits to the Residenz and the main art galleries, ‘meet’ Ludwig II and his best friend Wagner, then spend the evening relaxing at the Hofbrauhaus. It’s all possible in this episode and will be useful whether you are planning a trip, enjoying reminiscing or just want to find out more.
