In the surrounding area, you will also find the emblematic Our Lady Cathedral (Frauenkirche), which boasts two 99-metre tall towers, visible from several kilometres away, due to a law that impedes construction of buildings taller than the cathedral in the urban area and part of its surroundings. Munich’s most important street, Maximilianstrasse, is lined with shops and diverse places of interest, including the National Theatre of Munich (home to the Bavarian State Opera), the ZKMax (a very sophisticated underground art space), and the Maximiliaenum (an impressive 19th century building, which is not only the headquarters of the Bavarian Parliament, but also an exclusive residence for outstanding university students of the region.

If you’re looking for a good museum, the Kunstareal museum district is the place to go.

The spectacular Pinakothek der Moderne houses works by René Magritte, Max Ernst, Giorgio de Chirico, Francis Bacon, Picasso, Max Beckmann and Kandinsky.

However, possibly the best work of art Munich has to offer can be found two hours from the city, in the form of Neuschwanstein Castle.
