The Marienplatz. The Marienplatz is the most crowded with tourists place in Munich. From that place it's easy to get to the market streets, various breweries and restaurants. But the square itself can be also very interesting. For example, there are the Glokenspiel currants on the pediment of the 19th century. At 11, 12 and 21 o'clock during the chime of bells a true puppet performance starts. It tells us about the historical past of the country. The new city hall is decorated with the 85-meter tower, from which one can enjoy the fascinating view on old area of the city. On the very top you'll see the talisman and symbol of Munich – the small monk Kindl.

The Frauenkirche. The Frauenkirche is located not far from the Marienplatz in the centre of the city – at the Frauenplatz. It has two 99-meter towers that, actually, influence a lot the modern outlook of modern Munich. The church was built in 1468-1488 in the baroque style and is considered to be one of the masterpieces of architecture of those times. By the way, not all the people find it so attractive, some think it's too gloomy, especially inside. But in any case, it's worth looking at with your own eyes and making your personal impression of the church.
