We caught an early morning train to Munich and walked in the pouring rain through the very unattractive Munich streets near the train station to a very cheap and nasty hostel. Perhaps our first impressions from our arrival set the scene and influenced our overall experience of of Munich, but we didn't find the atmosphere anywhere near as pleasant as in Berlin. Liam visited the BMW museum on the first afternoon after we arrived and the following morning we headed out of the city to Dachau concentration camp. The camp was the first concentration camp established by the Nazis in 1933 and was used throughout the war until 1945 when the war ended. It was a sombre place and experience, and very informative. It certainly doesn't seem that much is swept under the mat here. We caught a train back in to the centre of Munich, Marienplatz, to look at the Bavarian architecture Munich is well known for. Drawn to a building we could only see the top of, Liam led us through the narrow streets to the entrance of St Peter’s church. The beautiful stain glass windows and many side altars were certainly worth seeing. Later in the afternoon we traipsed through town to the bus station past the still authentic ‘Spring Octoberfest’, and caught a very comfortable bus towards the stunning Bavarian alps.
