Englischer Garten or the English Gardens in Munich is a large public garden, larger than that of Central Park in New York! Here, you can enjoy a relaxing stroll through the gardens, have a tea at the Japanese Tea House or just chill with your buddies at the Chinese Tower (aka Chinesischer Turm).

Japanisches Teehaus or the Japanese Tea House is a place in the gardens where regular tea ceremonies take place. Not a very good shot though.

One of the most amazing sights we saw at the English Gardens was this…
Surfers surfing at the Englischer Garten Munich!
These surfers are actually surfing in the river! Turns out that this is an artificial stream with waves produced by pumps. ONLY experienced and skilled surfers are allowed on this river. See how skillful these surfers are!
Kate and I stood there for quite a while and it started to drizzle…so we continued on to enjoy the rest of the gardens, heading in the general direction of the Chinesischer Turm…
Chinesischer Turm at the Englischer Garten Munich
The Chinesischer Turm or Chinese Tower is one of the main attractions at the English Gardens. The Tower itself was meant to replicate a Chinese Pagoda and it is also home to the beer garden, which holds 7000 seats – the 2nd largest in the whole of Munich!
Unfortunately, the rain started to pour and Kate and I did not have the opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere here. If you had enjoy a couple of drinks here, share your experience with us in the comments section below!

As the garden is really huge, the Universitat, Giselastrasse & Münchner Freiheit U-bahn stations are close to the gardens. For the Chinese Tower, alight at Giselastrasse for a closer access!

Viktualienmarkt is a market located in the centre of Munich city. Since Kate loves pasar malam (night markets – think Singapore & Taiwan), the equivalent in Europe would be markets like the Viktualienmarkt and the Albert Cuypmarkt in Amsterdam.

What to do at Viktualienmarkt Munich
The Viktualienmarkt was formerly known as a farmer’s market. However, as it grew and the reputation of the markets grew, more and more stalls took roots here. Today, it is home to more than 140 shops that includes restaurants, beer gardens and shops that sells flowers, souvenirs, fruits and vegetables, all sorts of meats and spices!

As we were browsing the potpourris at this shop, we chanced upon a very cute porcupine souvenir. So we reached out and touched it. Not a good decision…
“No no! Dont touch it!” came the shouts from the store owner. So be warned! We think that the owners did not want us to affect the display that they had so painstakingly put in place. Remember not to touch, unless you want to buy!
Soup of the day – Vegetable with beef 6.30Euro
We had our lunch at the Munchner Suppenkuche, basically a soup kitchen. The vegetable beef soup was quite hearty. The bread was the sour rye bread, an interesting complement with the soup. While we were having our soup, a TV production was on-going, so we watched on…

Marienplatz Munich is the old town square of the city and is definitely one of the places that you must check out when you visit Munich!
View of Marienplatz and its attractions!
There many attractions in and around Marienplatz…
1. Rathaus Glockenspiel. You can catch the 11 am show of the clock tower (Rathaus Glockenspiel) or take a seat at one of the many cafes and enjoy a cuppa while the performance takes place. If you’re standing, be prepared to stand for a while because it is a 15 minutes performance!
City Hall Clock Tower and the Mariensäule (Marian Column)
2. Mariensaule (Marian Column). The Marian Column is a monument that signifies the end of Swedish Occupation. Built in 1638, it also has a statue of Virgin Mary at the top of it. Also makes a good meeting area in the middle of the square.
3. Frauenkirche & St. Peter’s Church. Completed in the 1500s, Frauenkirche (Cathedral of Our Dear Lady) is one of the most prominent landmarks in Munich. The church has 2 iconic towers with a blue top. You can also visit the top of towers to have breath-taking views of the city of Munich. Another prominent landmark is the St. Peter’s Church.

4. Shopping! In and around Marienplatz are tons of shopping options! Head towards Kaufingerstrasse and along Neuhauser Strasse towards Karlsplatz, you will find many shops and malls that line these streets!

Glockenspiel Munich, also known as the Clock Tower in Munich is one of the major attractions in Munich. Much like the Astronomical Clock in Prague, it is one of the top 10 must-visit tower clocks in the world! We visited the clock for the 11am performance…
Glockenspiel Munich – Top 10 Clock Towers in the World!
Rathaus Glockenspiel @ Marienplatz MunichRathaus and the statue in the middle of Marienplatz
The clock tower is part of the city hall or Rathaus. Hence its name of Rathaus Glockenspiel (City Hall Clock Tower).
There are 2 stories being told by the clock. The first part of the story (top portion) tells of a marriage which ends with a jousting match. The second part of the story (bottom portion) is a legend that depicts a dance that was suppose to ward off a plague.
The entire performance lasts about 15 minutes. It is actually quite tiring to hold the camera up for such a long time (thanks Kate!). Hence, here’s a shortened version of the performance for you!

Hofbrauhaus or Hof brew house (Brewery) is one of the must-visit attractions in Munich! On every Munich tourist brochure we received, the iconic HB (Hof Brau) will definitely be mentioned and we’re gonna tell you why…
Why visit Hofbrauhaus Munich?
Hofbrauhaus am Platzl in Munich
If you are visiting Munich but happen to miss the Oktoberfest, no worries. The Hofbrauhaus is a restaurant in the heart of Munich where the atmosphere of the Oktoberfest happens every night!
There are 2 portions to Hofbrauhaus, namely the restaurant area…
Inside the restaurant area of Hofbrauhaus
as well as the “happening fest” area / open air area
View from the restaurant into the open air area
There is a performance area where live Oktoberfest music is played nightly at the fest area. Hence, if you missed the Oktoberfest proper, Hofbrauhaus is definitely one of the places you must go to catch up on the atmosphere of the festivals.
What to eat & drink at Hofbrauhaus am Platzl Munich
Drinks and Food Menu at Hofbrauhaus
For drinks, you can choose from the usual wheat beers (at about 4euros for 0.5litres) such as light, dark or the Oktoberfest brew (only during Oktoberfest period) specially brewed for the Oktoberfests.
But the highlight of the menu has got to be pork knuckle (or Schwein Haxe)!
Best pork knuckle ever @ Hofbrauhaus Munchen
First and foremost, the skin was crispy yet not the overly crispy type where you feel it is almost burnt. The fatty bits was not too fatty but just nice, allowing you to bite off. There are some versions where the fatty bits are not well done and you will find it very hard to chew off.
The meat itself was flavourful and juicy, infused with the herb taste. If you take 1 mouth of the crispy skin, fatty bit and flavourful meat, it would just be “Ah….”
One word for the pork knuckle – Yummilicious! (That’s when you need to combine yummy and delicious into one word)
And it really was…
The ambience inside the restaurant was also fantastic. We were seated at one corner of the restaurant with views out to the pathway outside the restaurant…
Window seats at Hofbrauhaus Munich
In addition, the tables we were seated at were traditional, made out of wood and even had supports for our feet. The service was also great. The waiter took care to speak to us in good English and was meticulous in his service. Eventhough we only ordered one portion of the pork knuckle to share, he automatically got an extra plate for us and often checked back with us from time to time to ensure that we were really well taken care of.
All in all, our experience at Hofbrauhaus was nothing short of excellent. And you would think that the bill would run sky high? Nope. We only spent 20.20Euros that evening and enjoyed a wonderful meal with excellent service at that!
Total bill at Hofbrauhaus – Well worth every cent!

Oktoberfest in Germany, Munich is touted as the biggest beer festival in the world! But this annual festival is not merely about beers, it is actually fun for the entire family as well! Spanning an area of about 40 hectares at Theriesen Wiese (next to the U-bahn), the Oktoberfest area has 14 major beer tents, 21 smaller ones, food stalls, games stalls and many thrill rides! So join us as we uncover Oktoberfest in Munich Germany!
Welcome to Oktoberfest at Theriesen Wiese, Munich!
Stowing your luggage / baggage at Munich Hauptbahnhof (train station)
If you have not made reservations and want to visit the beer tents, it is always wise to visit Oktoberfest early in the day 10am or so (the first person gets drunk at that time as well). The seats in the evening are usually reserved a year in advance and you’ll probably have no seats in the beer tents after 5pm. After checking out and leaving our luggage at the Munich Hauptbahnhof (main train station), we took a short walk to the Theriesen Wiese Festival Grounds about 500 metres away from the train station.
Squeezed 4 pieces of bags into this locker at Munich Hauptbahnhof for 5 Euros
There are MANY lockers at the train station, so it should not be a problem to stow your luggage there while you have a good time at Oktoberfest. The lockers cost 5 Euros. Just remember to bring everything you need (we left our day pass train tickets in the locker – eliminating our option of taking the U-Bahn from Theriesen Wiese station)! There’s also a concierge kind of baggage storage which is slightly more expensive but you will certainly be able to stow your stuff away before visiting the festival!
Things to do at Oktoberfest Munich
From the Munich train station, there are signs pointing you to the direction of Oktoberfest. You can also follow the crowd. At 10am in the morning, throngs of people were already making their way there! 2 ways to identify them. Firstly, many were in traditional bavarian costume of Lederhosen (for the men) or Dirndl (for the ladies). Secondly, there are too many people walking in one general direction and it has got to be it! After about 10 minutes, we finally arrived at Oktoberfest!

Feel the festivities in the air at Oktoberfest!
Beer Tents at Oktoberfest
As we were early, we’ve decided to visit the beer tents first. Here are some of the tents we visited…

The beer tents usually serve Hefe (or unfiltered wheat beer). A good example would be Erdinger. Besides serving their own brew, some tents also brew beers specially for Oktoberfest each year. Prices of beers at Oktoberfest range from 9 euros to 11 euros per litre. Oh remember, hold the beer mugs like the locals do…your palm through the handle of the beer mug…
Authentic German Bavarian Food @ Oktoberfest
Experienced Oktoberfest-goers will tell you that you will need to “line your stomach” with fatty foods so as to “absorb” alcohol, allowing you to last through the night. Well, not too sure of whether that’s true (any medical students who can verify this?) but there’s definitely lots of food to try at Oktoberfest!
The pork knuckle sandwich is a must-try at Oktoberfest. All fest-goers will go for the fatty meats of the pork knuckle to “assist” them at the festival. Some of the buns may be too hard for our liking but the meat is Ooo lala! Tender, smoky and fatty! Yum!
Schnitzel simply means fried meat. Usually the meat is tenderised (by pounding) and placed into a batter before frying to golden brown. Needless to say, the outer layer is crispy, inside it’s moist and tender. Look at the size of that schnitzel!
Roasted Chicken
Rows of roasted chicken at Oktoberfest Munich Germany (8 euros for half a chicken) Super Tasty!Ammer where we bought our roasted chicken at Oktoberfest Germany!Moist & tender Roasted Chicken with vege stuffing
The humble roasted chicken is a main fare at Oktoberfest. You can probably judge its popularity by the rows of chickens in the ovens. Although it is relatively expensive at Oktoberfest (8Euros for half a chicken), the taste is absolutely fabulous. The meat was fully flavoured and if you notice, the oil drips from the chicken on top to the one below. Guess it’s that motion over and over again that gives the roasted chicken that much depth in flavour. Skin may be a little salty for some…beware!
Roasted Fish Anyone?

Desserts
Freshly baked crispy fluffy waffle with sugar icing (1.5 euros)- Yum! (Oktoberfest Munich Germany)Apple Strudel (5.5 euro with 2 euro refund for the plate) at Oktoberfest Germany Munich
Oktoberfest is not merely about the meats and beers. The desserts were very enticing as well. Check out the freshly baked waffles with sugar icing. Appealing isnt it? It is REALLY, FOR REAL, CONFIRM PLUS CHOP, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Between the both of us, it took less than 2 minutes to finish it all up, eventhough it was piping hot!
The strudel was a little bit expensive but tasted good as well. Traditional bavarian style. Yummy.
Other things to do at Oktoberfest
Oktoberfest is really not just a beer festival. It caters to the young and the young at heart as well. Besides the usual stall games (throwing stuff to win stuff), thrill seekers can find solace in knowing that there are MANY exciting rides at Oktoberfest as well!
Olympia Loop – A roller coaster ride! at OktoberfestHollenblitz – Another roller coaster with effects and charactersCrazy ride at Oktoberfest – with 3 axis of spin
If Tom says this is a crazy ride, this is a CRAZY ride. Having conquered bungee jump, giant drop (Dream World Australia) and Human vs Cylon (Universal Studios Singapore), Tom says this is the most challenging of them all! Check out the video…
It may look like a Viking but it most definitely is not. Not only can the main axis go 360 degrees, your own capsule can go 360 degrees PLUS the merry go round (another axis of rotation). Suffice to say, this ride is OUT TO MAKE YOU PUKE! Before Tom went on the ride, the attendants had to wash away the puke left behind by the previous riders. Think twice before trying this seemingly easy ride…
Video of another crazy ride at Oktoberfest
Again, this ride seems like nothing. But you’ll firstly feel the centrifugal force, then contend with the height PLUS the capsule rotates 360degrees. Well, the one that Tom took was crazier but this is no chicken feet either.
Ok, enough with the crazy rides. There are also rides for the kids as well…
Gnome Train Ride for kids at Oktoberfest Munich
There’s an area in the festival ground that caters to the young ones. Train rides such as this gnome train and other kid rides are designed with the kids in mind. Adults can also hug their kids for this traditional slide…
Traditional Slide at Oktoberfest
You’ll first need to go up an inclined travelator (kids can be assisted by the attendance, adults too if you need to). Climb up a few flight of stairs and enjoy this long but slow slide down.
Oktoberfest is really a festival for the entire family and not merely a beer festival. One of the days at Oktoberfest is actually called “family day” where some rides and food are discounted for the family to enjoy a day out at the fest!
Our Oktoberfest Experience at Augustiner Beer Tent
Well, it’s finally time to tell of our experience in the beer tents of Oktoberfest. This time, we chose to go to Augustiner Brau where it was said that the beers are simply delicious (you dont often use that word to describe beers right?)
Outside Augustiner Brau @ OktoberfestThrongs of people in the Oktoberfest beer tents – in the middle of the day!Augustiner Beers for 9.30 each
The beer was absolutely delicious. Full bodied and full of flavour. But do drink it slowly as they’re quite strong as well. Speaking of the price of beers, we later read an article on Oktoberfest stating that the beer ladies are earning less these days. In the past, beers were priced at 7.50 or 8.50. Some would give 8,9 or 10 euros. These days, the beers are at 9.30euros and we still gave only 9.50euros. Even if there are those who gave 10euros, their tip would not have been as much as compared to the last few years. We’re just glad that they did not scold us for our miserly 20cent euros tip! :p
As it was totally full on the ground level, we went upstairs and sat at a spot with a view. Not too bad actually. We then bought 2 pretzels, one for us to share and the other for another german couple on the same table as us, to share. Turns out that they were also from out of town and stopped by for the Oktoberfest!
Before we leave, we would like to introduce the official “cheers song” at Oktoberfest – Ein Prosit…
Oktoberfest Cheers Song – Ein Prosit
The lyrics of Ein Prosit (A Toast) is…
Ein Prosit, ein Prosit
Der Gemütlichkeit
Ein Prosit, ein Prosit
Der Gemütlichkeit.
It basically translates to “A toast at your own liking for good cheer and good times!”
Last but not least…
If you’re going there with your loved ones, remember to get a lebkuchen!
How about an Oktoberfest Leb Kuchen for your loved ones – remember to pay with a kiss!
Lebkuchen is a sort of gingerbread and at Oktoberfest, it is fashioned into a heart-shaped with many different messages written on it. Remember, the guy will buy for the girl, puts it over her neck while the girl repays with a kiss! Well, at least that’s what the stall owner taught us!
Aufwidersehen Oktoberfest “See you again!”

There are basically 2 ways to get to Oktoberfest. You can either
1. Take a train to Munich Hauptbahnhof (main train station) and take a 10 minutes walk from there to Theriesen Wiese festival grounds OR
2. Take the U-bahn to the train station of the same name (Theriesen Wiese), you would be right outside the festival grounds.
It is recommended to go to the hauptbahnhof actually because the Theriesen Wiese station can be quite packed during peak hours.

Pork Kunckle Sandwich Oktoberfest
One of the fattiest street snack you can find at Oktoberfest has got to be the pork knuckle sandwich! The skin is crispy and flavourful while the fatty bits beneath gives you the lining that you need to survive the beer festival! While you’re trying out the street foods, why not give the crispy schnitzel burger a try as well?
