We had only one day to spend in Munich, but its wealth of culture, history and architecture left us longing for another visit. City's central square is Marienplatz.

This wonderful museum offers excellent selection of 18th and 19th-century art. My favorite are some paintings by Monet, van Gogh and Manet…but there are also David, Gainsborough, Goya and many others

Stroll along the Marienplatz - the Munich`s hub. And the heart of the Altstadt. Platz is dedicated to the patron of the city, whose golden statue atop a huge column stands in the center of the square. On its north side is the Neues Rathaus (New City Hall) built in 19-th century Gothic style.

There is another sight in the heart of the Altstadt a visitor should not miss – Frauenkirche. The onion-domed towers of the 15th century cathedral are one of the city`s landmarks.
