Surrounded by beautiful historic buildings, lively cafés and bustling shopping streets, the square is dominated by the magnificent Neues Rathaus (New Town Hall), whose famous Glockenspiel delights visitors several times a day with its charming procession of life-sized figures. From here, it's easy to wander through the narrow streets of Munich's Altstadt, discovering elegant churches, traditional markets and hidden courtyards that showcase the city's rich history and timeless charm.
The surrounding Old Town perfectly captures the character that has earned Munich the nickname "Weltstadt mit Herz" (World City with Heart). Traditional Bavarian restaurants sit alongside fashionable boutiques and modern cafés, while landmarks such as the Frauenkirche, Viktualienmarkt and Odeonsplatz are all within easy walking distance. Whether you're stopping for coffee in a sunny square, sampling local delicacies at the famous food market or simply admiring the city's impressive architecture, Marienplatz is the ideal place to experience Munich's unique blend of history, culture and warm Bavarian hospitality.

Covering almost 400 hectares, the park features scenic walking and cycling trails, tranquil lakes, open meadows and shaded woodland, making it a favourite destination for both locals and visitors throughout the year.
