Decode puzzles at the Mariensäule column, uncover the 1516 Reinheitsgebot purity law at Viktualienmarkt, visit Oktoberfest breweries Hacker-Pschorr and Schneider Weisse, step inside the infamous Hofbräuhaus, and end at a hidden wolf fountain steeped in Germanic folklore.

About Munich
Munich is the Bavarian capital, with a rebuilt old town, beer gardens, royal palaces and the Alps visible on clear days to the south.
Marienplatz, the main square, is overlooked by the neo-Gothic New Town Hall, whose Glockenspiel chimes with mechanical figures, and by the twin onion-domed towers of the Frauenkirche. The Viktualienmarkt close by is a food market with a beer garden. The Residenz, the former home of Bavaria's rulers, has lavish halls and a treasury, and Nymphenburg Palace stands in a park to the west.
Top-ranked sights in Munich: Neuschwanstein Castle, Marienplatz, Odeonsplatz.
