Let the Festivals Begin

IMG_5182

This weekend marks the beginning of the Summer festival season in Munich, and the Altstadt has come to life.  Even on Sunday, you see an endless row of tents thanks to the Hamburger Fish Market (pictured here) in Wittelsbacherplatz, the Builders fest in Odeonzplatz, and the Craft Festival running along Theatinerstrasse – just to name a few.  Coming up, you have Munich’s birthday celebrated June 12-13, the Greenfarm Festival celebrating Irish music, among many others.  Pictured here, I just couldn’t resist taking a picture of such festive spirits – a stand selling Prosecco, Chablis, and Sangaria.  If none of that works out, you can always try the hundreds of beer gardens around town which have brought out big screen TVs for the World Cup matches.
