Tours in Munich

Westpark
Laid out in 1983, for the International Garden Design Exhibition, Westpark offers 72 hectares (178 acres) of wilderness in the city. Three separate areas recreate the contrasting natural habitats of mountain, meadowland and dry grassland; human interference with the plants and animals is kept to a minimum. In among the natural attractions, visitors can find beer gardens, cafés and several playgrounds. In summer, a floating stage hosts concerts, theatre and open-air cinema events. Open 24 hours a day.

Garmischer Strasse, Sendling-Westpark
Free admission.

Kartoffelmuseum (Potato Museum)
An unusual and off-beat attraction situated to the east of the city centre dedicated to everything and anything concerning the potato, including its use in art, marketing and advertising.

Grafinger Strasse 2
Tel: (089) 404 050.
