                <description><![CDATA[The Alte Pinakothek offers a very profound overview of the Old Masters which ranges from the 14th to the 18th century. There are paintings by Dürer, Rubens, Tintoretto, Brueghel and others on display. Designed by the Bavarian mid-19th-century architect Leo von Klenze for King Ludwig I, the building itself was exemplary for European museum buildings in the 19th century.<br><br>Closed on Mondays, just €1 entrance fee on sundays.<br><br>The museum is the centre of the Munich "Kunstareal", the "art quarter", where you can find a lot of other museums (eg the two other "Pinakotheken") as you can see on the recommended homepage.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Every 20 min there's a bus, which is run by Lufthansa and takes 25-35 min from Hauptbahnhof (main train station)  in the centre to the two terminals at the airport and back. A round-ticket costs €15, one-way €9,50 apiece.<br><br>The S-Bahn is very convenient: the airport is served by two different lines, the S1 and the S8, which link the city with its hub every ten minutes. It takes 40 min approximately to Marienplatz or main train station and is pretty well-priced, especially when you aren't alone. Up to five adults and as much family members of one adult which under the age of 14 can use one "Partner-Tages-Karte" (a "partner" day ticket) but pay only €16 for the ticket. And the best is: you can use the ticket the rest of the whole day throughout the city.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The Cord is a bar and café with dancing (as they describe themselves...) right between the Karlsplatz/Stachus and the Sendlinger Tor. A nice and loud place for the evening and as it's in the second floor you have a very urban overview over the bright streets. Watch the traffic and the tramways go by, while enjoying a nice cocktail and talking to nice people! At the weekend there is a moderate entrance fee, on weekdays (or better: weeknights) it's free!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Founded in 1994 the Atomic Café is still a beacon in Munich nightlife. With an everyday changing programme, the Atomic tries to span a bridge between today's lifestyle and the 50s, 60s, and 70s music. Nevertheless you can listen there to Brit Guitar, Brit Pop, electronic, drum'n'bass, rock and reggae, too of course. Just have a look into the agenda!<br><br>Cool interior, beautiful people. A lot of concerts; then it can get pretty expensive, but it's a real experience!<br>They tell you it's air-conditioned, but no one believes it. Strict door policy, stay polite and patient...]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The Fünf Höfe ("Five Courts") are high class shopping passages in the heart of Munich. The area, designed by the swiss architects Herzog&amp;deMeuron, lies directly between the Marienplatz and the Odeonsplatz in the Theatinerstraße. You can find there designer shops (especially Italy is very present...), book stores, galleries, lifestyle shops and very hip restaurants like the Vapiano (italian cuisine) or the Kaimug (thai).<br>Aside from shopping and eating you can enjoy art in the HypoKunsthalle which presents every year up to four temporary exhibitions.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A very relaxing place. There are Parisians who go there to take a nap, and you won't pay more than a euro to enter the garden.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A beautiful Italian restaurant, with a very scenic view (the restaurant lies directly next to a bridge which spans the picturesque Landwehrkanal - very romantic in the evenings!!). <br><br>It is a busy, but nevertheless charming restaurant which tends to attract younger people who like to enjoy genuine Italian cuisine. The menu is simple (antipasti, pasta, pizza, dolci), but everything (and I mean everything: we went up and down the menu) is of extraordinary quality and taste. Try the desserts and don't forget to make a reservation!]]></description>

                <title>Schrannenhalle ("Schranne")</title>
                
                <link>http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1799</link>
                
                <description><![CDATA[A 150-year-old market hall, which was demolished in 1914 but rebuilt and reopened in September 2005. Not only food, but also handmade clothing, soaps and other handcrafts. There are a lot of restaurants (Bavarian, Italian, Thai, Vietnamese), bars and cafes. A nice and felicitous mixture of modern glass and classic cast-iron architecture. <br><br>The new Jewish Centre (museum, synagogue and community centre) is just steps away.<br><br>The Schranne is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Everyday there are concerts (classical, jazz, rock, world) and other cultural events (like exhibitions, readings and performances). <br><br>I suggest you first take a walk around the most popular and picturesque market, the Viktualienmarkt, then explore the Schranne, and, as a cosy end, get a nice glass of beer in the "Pschorr". This is a bavarian beer cellar and restaurant you'll find on the northern end of the Schranne.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A quiet, modern garden right behind the Opera in the city centre. Diagonally opposite to its entrance is the Instituto Cervantes' entrance (free exhibitions + library). Next to it there's the Allerheiligen Hofkirche, the former church of the bavarian royal family, which has been destroyed in WWII and rebuild as a concert hall.]]></description>
