When it comes to touristic places it is definitely a crowd of people. Famous places like Marienplatz, Odeonplatz, Englischer Garten etc. always filled with tourists. But sometimes I want to stay alone, think about my life or just read a good book in a beautiful place. And of course sometimes I want to take a picture without a million people in the background. That is why I want to tell you about one of my favorite places in Munich.

The Hall of Fame and Bavaria statue. King Ludwig intended to create the Ruhmeshalle in honor of distinguished people of his Kingdom. Today this location is known as  Oktoberfest venue. But I reccomend you to visit this place in spring or summer time with a cup of coffee and a good book. Take a couple of atmospheric photos in the deserted hall of Fame, then take a sit on the steps under the statue of Bavaria enjoying a good weather and silence.

If you have ever wanted to get inside the head of a woman, you can come up the stairs to a platform in the head of Bavaria, where four openings in the helmet let you enjoy a view of downtown Munich. But I would recommend doing it during the Oktoberfest, the view is amazing in this period. Anyway, you should definitely visit this place.
