Great place to walk in Munich - Nymphenburg Palace



Nymphenburg Palace

Beginning in 1701, the palace was systematically expanded by Maximilian II, heir to the Duchy of Bavaria. Located in the northwestern suburbs of Munich, Germany, Schloss Nymphenburg Palace (Schloss Nymphenburg) is one of the largest imperial palaces in Europe, comparable to the Palace of Versailles in France, the Summer Palace in St. Petersburg in Russia and other famous palaces.

Built between 1664 and 1758, Nymfenburg has a history of 300 years and has long been the Summer Palace of the Bavarian royal family. The whole palace sits west to east, by a block of square buildings formed a group of buildings, the positive span of 600 meters.



The garden covers an area of about 3 square kilometers, and the large flower garden at the back of the palace is decorated with 12 white marble statues. The garden has an excellent natural environment with towering ancient trees, various flowers and flowers, birds and flowers. The architecture of the garden is a combination of Italian, French and English garden styles, while retaining the characteristics of Baroque gardens.

The expansion project took 200 years to complete, although it did not reach the scale of the palace of King Louis XIV of France, but it is certainly the largest palace of its kind in Germany. Some of the rooms in the palace remain in the original Baroque style, but others have been converted to Rococo or classical styles over time.

As the palace was dedicated to the goddess of the garden and the fairies of the mountains and rivers, the back garden was full of flowers, green grass, flowing water and green hedges. A gravel road leads to an artsy fountain in Hajj Square, lined with manicured lawns and flowerbeds, and paths that stretch in all directions take you through large, dark forests to find pavilions and Bridges hidden among the greenery as the river flows. The setting sun at dusk is the best time to take a stroll in the palace gardens.


Watching the graceful swans playing in the sparkling lake, the free birds circling in the darkening sky, the golden sun shining warm on the face through the leaves, the gentle fragrance of flowers and plants brought by the breeze, everything is quiet and harmonious, fresh and pleasant. Nymphenburg in the evening, meet the most beautiful scenery at the best time.

Olympic Park

The Olympic Park is a temple in the hearts of sports fans - the site of the 20th Summer Olympic Games in 1972. The Olympic Stadium is the centerpiece of the park and an architectural marvel. The tented roof of the stadium is made of several huge "fishing nets" spliced together by 50 davits up to more than 80 meters high, with an area of 75,000 square meters, which is the largest roof in the world, equivalent to 10 football fields. These giant "fishing nets" are all man-made plexiglass. It is said to cost more than 100 million marks, making it the most expensive roof in the world.


Those looking for a thrill can experience the Flying Fox. The experience begins with a 120-minute walk on top of the stadium, pulling a rope as you go, much like walking a dog, so the safety measure is called "Waldi" (Waldi is a long-legged German hound, the mascot of the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich). Finally reach the top of the 35-meter-high Olympic Stadium and jump over the stadium.

Located in the bowl next to the iconic building. Take your student card 🪪 for a discount of €7. Backpacks are not allowed, self-storage cabinets are available, 1 €coins are prepared in advance. I went to deposit my bag just in time to see a forgotten coin at the return desk.

There are three levels, so in general a lot of cars, a lot of motorcycles and a lot of engines. It's best to have someone who knows how to go along and talk about engine construction and classic models and the history behind them,
