Munchen - Bavarian beauty


Heralded as one of the native German cities, Munchen ('Munich' for rest of the world) offers you the taste of Bavaria. Bavarians belong to the traditional German culture and this city is nurtured and developed very German. Located at the south-eastern frontier, it takes about close to 5 hours by train from Frankfurt. Soccer is a national sport for Germany and I 've heard much about the Olympic village here. Accompanied by a buddy, we took the U-Bahn (underground rail line) to get to this lush green place. Reaching there, I stood dumbfounded staring at the structures around me...You feel terribly small standing on the bridge, surrounded by lanky BMW and O2 offices on sides and cars zipping through the curvy freeways. Beams start to protude out from near me, only to converge almost a mile later at the soccer viewing gallery. We took a walk to the swimming pool and the adjoining swan lake where chidren skate and enjoy every moment out there with near and dears...Sat in the bliss for an hour before returning to dine with my friend and head back..
