Of the city he lived in for many years, 20th-century writer Thomas Mann said that “Munich glows”. And indeed, the sky is often a brilliant blue dotted with puffy white clouds in “Italy’s northernmost city”, where the relaxed, often Baroque lifestyle gives it a southern flair. Englischer Garten and the Isar meadows are right in the middle of the city; Starnberger See and the mountains are virtually on the doorstep. But Munich is also a city of art and culture with an abundance of historic buildings, museum treasures, and a lively cultural scene. Fine art, leisure, and la dolce vita make this a unique city.

take a trip 120 kilometers south east on the autobahn towards salzburg....turn off at freilassing and head onto laufen a/d salzach, cross the bridge into austria to oberndorf on the other side, where on christmas eve every year without fail you can experience a fantastic festival of carols...this is where in a tiny chapel "silent night, holy night" was composed....the atmosphere at the midnight mass will truly affect you forever.
