In July a little dream of mine came true: I won tickets for the Harry Styles show at the Olympia Halle in Munich which has been sold out for years. Unfortunately I only have a few mobile phone pictures from the concert, but I can show you my Munich impressions with my Leica Q2.

My sister and I decided to add an extra day after the concert so we could do some sightseeing and shopping in Germany. Our journey to Munich started adventurously with a long and exhausting train ride with many unexpected stops - including Tyrol. Also our hotel had a few negative surprises in store for us.

Nevertheless Munich is a great city to visit. We had perfect, not too warm weather to stroll around: On the very first evening, we visited the Olympia Park and explored our neighborhood where we discovered beautiful historic buildings during sunset.

The 9€ ticket was a great opportunity to explore Munich with all kinds of public transport at a very reasonable price. Munich has so many sights, museums and great places to visit that one day is not enough to experience the city in all its facets.

We tried to do as much as possible: We tried Bavarian cuisine and ate sausages and lots (really lots) of pretzels, we had a great time in a beer garden next to the Marienkirche where we drank spezis and beers, we visited the Viktualienmarkt, the famous market in the city centre where you can find not only all kinds of fruits and vegetables, but also some nice souvenirs. Of course, we also spent some time at the Marienplatz and saw the impressive New Town Hall, which is home to the city government, as well as the Old Town Hall.

It was a great short trip; I would be happy to do it again!
