When you arrive walking from Karslplatz towards Marienplatz it is definitely impressing to see the new town hall. It is beautiful and, moreover, if you manage to be at 11 and see the carousel in operation, it is even better. For me, the most beautiful thing in Munich. Karakuri clock of the new city hall is famous. Even if the Karakuri clock is not moving, it is crowded with many tourists. It is easy to visit because it is soon from the subway station. The Marienplatz is simply the center of Munich. Typically, the trip to the pedestrian zone starts from here, especially since the Marienplatz with subway and subway is also excellent to reach. Then the view of the New and the Old Town Hall. Just beautiful.
Very beautiful square, well maintained. It pays to spend time walking, photographing, sitting down to drink something. It is possible to climb the new city hall tower to see the city from a slightly higher point. You can not really avoid the Marienplatz as a Munich tourist. Really worth seeing is the carillon in the town hall tower. That it starts soon, notice when the place is full 😜 If you do not want to pay 10% more for your beer than two streets away, you better not drink it at Marienplatz.
