Top 2 in Top 10 Best Things to Do in Munich
Marienplatz is Munich's city town square where all the cool architecture is concentrated in. It is truly an architecture-lover paradise here. From left to right, you will be surrounded by all kinds of cool traditional European buildings, all of which somehow survived the mass destruction caused by WW2.
Right at the center, you will also find Mary's Column where the square got its name from. The monument was erected in 1638 to commemorate the end of Swedish occupation and it is now one of the main features of this beautiful square. 3 weeks before Christmas, the famous Munich Christmas Market will take place in Marienplatz and you can stroll around, and buy some Christmas goods with food and drinks all around.
