Don’t miss
Residenz
Our itinerary begins with the Royal Palace, the famous “Residenz”: one of the largest and most majestic palaces in Europe, inside which you will find glitzy courtyards and numerous works of art, including a statue of Venus by Canova. Then we go on over to Frauenkirche, an imposing Gothic church of the late 15th century, and then to the beautiful Marienplatz square, with the Rathaus-Glockenspiel chiming clock placed right on the facade of the New Town Hall.
Kunstareal
Give yourself time at Kunstareal, a neighbourhood almost entirely dedicated to museums. Here you can visit the three art galleries, Alte, Neue and der Moderne, or the Lenbachhaus, containing many Impressionist works.
English Garden
If you want to spend time outdoors do not skip the English Garden, perfect for spending a few hours relaxing in, or for a nice photo shoot with the Chinese Tower or the Monopteros in the background.
Allianz Arena and BMW Museum
Off the beaten tourist track you can visit the Allianz Arena and the BMW Museum. The first is the fascinating stadium home to Bayern Munich football team, as well as a proper recreational centre where you can find museums, restaurants, and shops. The second is a mind-blowing building, in which you can retrace the history of the automotive brand, also getting a close look at the latest prototypes.
Travel Documents
Identity Card
An identity card valid for leaving the country allows entry into European Union countries. However, please note that there have been reports of difficulties in some countries with the recognition of renewed and stamped paper identity cards, as well as the refusal of electronic ID cards renewed with a certificate issued by the municipality.
Passport
An ordinary passport is valid for all countries whose governments are recognized by the Italian one, except for any legal restrictions, and can be obtained by all citizens of the Republic. A passport is issued (and renewed) by the police and abroad, by diplomatic and consular representatives. It is valid for 10 years, but in some cases provided for by current legislation, this validity may be shortened.
