Ad | If you’re planning to come to Munich and not necessarily do what every tourist does, save this post.🥰 . First of all, I recommend you sleep at Mercure Hotel City Center, for example, because here you are right at the train station and can take the S-Bahn to wherever you want. In addition, @mercurehotels work on the local conditions in terms of products and style. So we had a room that was decorated with great details to a gin brand. Breakfast was killer, with pretzels, weisswurst, and a great selection of toppings and bread. The staff are accommodating and super sweet. So I can really recommend it. 🫶🏽Now for the spots: 🥨Visit the English Garden (start from the Eisbach wave and just follow the paths to the Monopteros, here you have a great view to the city. At the lake you can feed the birds and let your soul dangle. 🥨 go in the evening for a drink with cool people in the Glockenbachviertel. Here we had chosen the bar Curtain Falls 🥨 marvel at the BMW cars from new to old, as well as great changing exhibitions in the BMW World and the BMW Museum 🥨 climb the bell tower ‚Alter Peter‘ to get the best view over the city 🥨 learn more about the Munich way of life and go on the journey of beer in the beer museum 🥨 enjoy a delicious Schnitzel at ‚Atzinger‘ and an ice cream like Alice in Wonderland at the ‚crazy ice cream maker 🥨 buy delicious products at the Viktualienmarkt or let yourself be drawn into the atmosphere 🥨 follow the history of toys in the toy museum (reopened in March) 🥨 you want to immerse yourself in an authentic quarter of Munich? Then take a look at the French Quarter. Well, how many spots did you already know?☺️ . . . #DiscoverLocal @mercurehotels #visitmunich #münchenliebe #münchencity #münchenstagram #munichgermany

I had the chance to visit the BMW Museum during my recent trip to Munich, and it was definitely one of the highlights of my visit. As a car enthusiast, I was particularly excited to see the various models on display, from classic vintage cars to the latest modern vehicles. One of the things that stood out to me about the BMW Museum was the attention to detail in the design of the exhibits. The museum is housed in a striking modern building, and the displays are arranged in a way that is both visually impressive and informative. It was fascinating to see the evolution of BMW's design over the years, and to learn more about the company's history and achievements. Another thing that I appreciated about the BMW Museum was the interactivity of the exhibits. There were plenty of opportunities to get hands-on with the displays, from interactive screens and simulations to actual cars that visitors could sit in and explore. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to the BMW Museum for anyone with an interest in cars or design. The museum is well-curated and engaging, and the exhibits offer a fascinating glimpse into the history and innovation of one of the world's leading automobile manufacturers.

Amazing museum to visit for everyone visiting Munich. I would say it is definitely worth it… the more when you are a petrol head. It is 10€/person and 7€/person for students and seniors (>65 yrs old). Showcasing everything there is to know about BMW. Starting from its history, evolution of cars, evolution of engines, evolution of motorbikes, etc. They also have the explanations and stories in English which is a very good thing for people who don’t understand German. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe there was either 19 or 20 exhibition rooms to look at which actually makes the trip worth it, you get to really learn a lot about BMW. They really maximize the space they have and it might look really confusing on where to go next because it looks like everything is overlapping but since there are numbers outside of the exhibition rooms it is not. Another thing is that if you just follow the path it will be in order so it is not really confusing actually. Great museum to visit!

I’ve owned 3 different BMW’s over 20 years (325 and 328i’s) and was really looking forward to the museum. I still love the brand, but unfortunately it was just OK. We bought general admission ticket (Saturday afternoon Aug) as the tours were already pre booked. I suggest for a better experience that would have been smarter to pre purchase, although there was no wait time. The hallways are tight in many areas not allowing for good flow of visitors, or time if something caught your attention you couldn’t learn more as the space was tight. The A/C doesn’t work very well and it was hot inside although outside was in the low 80’s f. The museum seems to skip the WWII years, I guess that’s perhaps corporate communications not wanting to share that part of BMW past (?). While they cover a bit of the future with electric and hydrogen, I felt they could do more to help understand the future. The motorcycle information was enjoyable as well as the collection of bikes. Oh well.
