When to go to Munich?

Marienplatz gathers under a neo-Gothic town hall whose glockenspiel figures turn at set times each day. The Englischer Garten runs for kilometres along the Isar, beer gardens included, and the Deutsches Museum devotes entire halls to mining, aviation and shipbuilding. At the western edge of the city, Nymphenburg Palace spreads its wings and canals across formal parkland.
