Munich: Where you're guaranteed bier und good times

The train from the airport to Munich’s Hauptbahnhof train station, is a very precise 50 minute ride. 

If you’re staying in Munich, chances are you’ll be getting out here or at MarienPlatz which is closer to the historical centre and a good bit more upmarket.

The Hauptbahnof is a rather huge and intimidating sort of a place so it’s best to get out of it as soon as possible and head into the city. We arrived in the late evening so the city’s nightlife was in full swing. Like most main train stations, the surrounding area is quite seedy but not particularly threatening.
