A Day in Westend
-
Morning
Begin at the Bavaria . Climb up to the statue’s head and enjoy the glorious view across Theresienwiese. Behind the Ruhmeshalle is the attractive Bavariapark. Walk through to its snorthern end and visit the impressive collection of the Verkehrszentrum (see The Branch Museums), a branch museum of the Deutsches Museum, housed in three historic fair halls. Cross Heimeranstr. and follow Ganghoferstr. until it intersects with Tulbeckstr. Here, Kao Kao is a good choice for a coffee break (Tulbeckstr. 9). Stroll and browse in the multicultural district from Tulbeckstr. to Ganghoferstr., and then on to Gollierstr., which ends at Gollierplatz. For lunch, try Rüen Thai (Kazmairstr. 58), one of the best Thai restaurants in the city.
Afternoon
Ganghoferstr. and Pfeuferstr. will take you over a S-Bahn track bridge into the eastern section of Westpark. Stroll westward, past the mysterious “floating” granite sphere, to the marshland ponds and try to spot the frogs. Walking across a bridge over a major city motor-way takes you into the western section of the park and its Thai pagoda, Japanese garden, rose garden with over 2,000 roses, and a manmade lake complete with stage at its centre for open-air music, theatre, and film in summer. For coffee or a pint of beer, stop in at the See-Café or the restaurant set in the tranquil surroundings of the rose garden.
