How have you been enjoying the city lately?
This days have been really calm in Munich and a proof of this is this picture.
Some people might not even recognize it or will not understand what is so special about all of this empty space. This space is the Theresienwiese, where the greatest German party takes place, the Oktoberfest. There are other festival also going on, aside from the Oktoberfest, like the Springfest and Tollwood at winter.  I love to pass by this location when there is nothing going on, since I find it somehow, relieving. To be able to contemplate such a popular place, where millions of people pass through, is very relaxing these days, since it has a completely different atmosphere.
Munich is like this, a dual city where one day you can find yourself dressed in a traditional Bavarian outfit transported to another time and another day, just jogging pass the same location or riding your bike without any concern. I cannot imagine all the stories that must have happen in this place, all the different generations that have visited these events and most important the interaction from people all over the world that have taken place. Sometimes people don’t realize all the history a place has, but I like to think about it and imagine how it has changed through time. I hope everyone gets the chance to experience Theresienwiese and its duality since it is unbelievable how much it changes.
