Wurmeck

Historical landmark

👍👍 After successfully arriving in Munich, I went to Marienplatz in Munich, which is known as the top ten squares in Europe.

Bavarian restaurant

😠 Booked weeks in advance for dinner for two. We were dumped at the end of a table with another group of 6, when the table was already only meant for 6 people.
