One of the most popular festivals in Germany, held in Theresienwiese, born in the year 1810 with the wedding of Prince Louis I of Bavaria and Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen.

During my first Wiesn, I had several surprises: I always thought that the Oktoberfest was a party exclusively for drinking beer; This is not 100% true, you can enjoy typical Bavarian food while listening to typical German music. There are also mechanical attractions that you can enjoy on a sunny day, in the company of your friends. But the biggest surprise was seeing families with their young children enjoying this party, with sweets and souvenirs. Also, months before the German people look for the perfect Dirndl or Lederhosen for this party, is an exhausting plan, trust me, I did.

If one day you decide to live this wonderful bavarian tradition, one of the most important phrases you must learn is “Eine Maß Bier bitte”. If you don’t know the meaning the waiter surely does. Hehehe
