Munich: Marienplatz (Part 2)

I was lucky there was carnival during that time in Marienplatz which was bustling with tourists and locals alike.
Somehow there was an event which motivated most of the locals to put on their traditional attires

Don't forget to tour the souvenir shops along the streets as well; although the prices are not cheap (I can tell you, due to our conversion rates:(

But I liked Munich (forget about the attitude of the people!)
