Hotel Monaco, small, boutique and excellent value A comfortable room overlooking the Schillerstrasse, noisy at night, but earplugs fixed that The cherubic theme is carried out throughout the hotel I've only been here five minutes and I'm in trouble Karstadt-one of Munich's largest department stores Ministry of Justice
Karlsplatz A quiet moment for a watercolourt artist Sunlit through the fountain's mist Soaking up the sunshine by the fountain Pause for a phone call Karlstor - one of Munich's medieval gates
Plaque to Munich's musicians on the side of the Karlstor arch Outdoor cafes mirror the cosmopolitan mix of Munich's population Entertainers on the shopping mall The Strauss Memorial fountain The glitter and glitz of Munich's shops is evident here Street artist was drawing from photographs. The setting is the Marienplatz.
