Chapter 954 When I travel to meet her
As soon as the car left the parking lot, it was about to turn right, but was stopped by a rough horn sound. Turning his head to see that a black Audi had accelerated and rushed into the crowded and narrow alley. Yunluo hesitated a little. Well, it has been more than ten days since he returned to China, and Yunluo should be used to such a barbaric way of communication.
Reversing and waiting, Black Audi drove past in front of Yunluo and slowed down slightly in front of Yunluo's car. Through the window Yunluo saw a pair of resentful eyes. Maybe he thought Yunluo fell too slowly. His mood was not affected too much. This is the positive energy given to Yunluo by travel. After seeing too much calm, peaceful and humble attitude towards life, his life has slowed down.
A very classic Chinese idiom "scramble for the first time" appears in my mind. I really hope it disappears into the students' textbooks as soon as possible.
The self-driving journey in Europe is full of pleasure and is a vivid and educational class. Even on the fastest German highway in the world, no one comes and goes to racing, big cars, small cars, fast cars, and slow cars, and they all go on their own and do not interfere with each other. Even if they encounter a large traffic jam, no one goes against the trend, gets stuck, crowded or even turns around.
All the cars were guarding their own roads in a regular manner; when they were lined up, he gave in as soon as Yun Luo turned on the lights; on the mountain road, no matter how slowly Yun Luo drove, he followed silently, without honking the whistle or flashing the high beams; when crossing the road, before Yun Luo's feet stepped on the zebra crossing, he had already stopped there steadily and waited quietly.
It won’t take long before Yunluo learned to be peaceful and humble, which was exchanged for waving and friendly smiles again and again. Life is a journey that cannot be turned back. Why bother to rush to the road and miss the good scenery along the way, which will ruin the good mood of watching the scenery.
At midnight, the plane set off from the Yunluo city and leaped over the Eurasian continent. It carried Yunluo to a new journey. In the early morning, the plane landed at Munich Airport, Germany. Outside the window, the sky was light and the new day had just begun. Due to the jet lag, Yunluo stolen an additional 6 hours. Munich. Yunluo is here!
Munich, the capital of Bavaria, the third largest city in Germany, and the uncrowned capital of Germany.
Just like everyone has their own appearance and temperament, every city has its own atmosphere and pulse. The charm of Munich lies in the perfect combination of tradition and modernity. In a 40-minute drive, the train drives from the airport to the city center. What is speeding past is not the tall buildings, but the retro small houses.
This is Munich, which is the locomotive of Germany's economic growth. However, it maintains a lifestyle and state that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
She was very conservative! In 1944, Munich encountered a devastating air strike, and the entire city was almost blown into ruins by the Allies. After World War II, many destroyed German cities built new reinforced concrete forests, while Munich stubbornly restored the medieval period.
She is very open! Since 1810, Munich has welcomed millions of tourists from all over the world with the world's most famous and largest Oktoberfest. As long as there is no war, disease or other unpleasant things happening, the old brewery will set up beer on Theresa Square.
Music sounds, cheers sound, and crisp impact of beer mugs sounds, no matter where you come from. The fanaticism here belongs to you.
She is very traditional! Traditional national clothing has become synonymous with Bavaria. Every weekend and holiday, men wear plaid shirts, leather trousers, and felt hats decorated with male goat wool. Women wear large open-collar corsets, tight vests and plaid skirts, and drink in the beer garden under the chestnut tree.
She is very modern! The world-famous electronics giant Siemens and the automotive pride BMW have taken root in Munich. She is the most important insurance base in Germany, she has the world's most advanced international exhibition center, and she is the city with the largest number of publishing houses in Germany.
She is very busy! Munich is located in the center of Europe, facing the Czech Republic, Poland, France-Holland, and Austria in the west, and across the Lake Constance from Switzerland. She has the busiest traffic artery in Europe.
She is very leisurely! There is no atmosphere in any German city that is more leisurely than in Munich. Time flows slowly on the open-air terraces of beer houses and restaurants. There are always so many leisurely people sitting in the cafe here who seem to be ineffective.
Munich's classical and modernity are being integrated with the most perfect combination. This is also the greatest charm of Munich in the eyes of travelers like Yunluo.
After leaving the subway station, the hotel is the hotel. The location of the hotel is very good. It is opposite Carl Square at the west entrance, close to Carl Square Station. The west stop is the main train station, and the east stop is directly to Maria Square in the center of the old town. The room is small, but the price is so popular that it was fried by the Beer Festival.
It was about 8 o'clock when you arrived at the hotel. During the Beer Festival, don't expect to have a free room waiting for you to check in early in the morning, let alone at this gate where every inch of land is valuable. Yunluo and Yan Chenyu stored their luggage and went out to find food.
The subway station in Carl Square is already very lively. There are several clothing brand stores in the middle of the circular small square, and the outer side is full of various delicacies. There are small shops that only sell simple bagels, special bakeries that provide various breads, pizza stores with various flavors, and cafes with good taste in the environment. Yunluo and Yan Chenyu finally chose pano.
Speaking of Munich, we have to mention the origin of the name Munich. The original meaning of Munich is "in the monks (touch enches)".
According to research, in 746 AD, monks built a monastery at the foot of the Alps in southern Munich. By around 1000 AD, monks began to settle down in their location in Munich today, and gradually formed a market around the church. In 1160 AD, Duke Heinrich built a city wall with the Maria Square today as the center.
The city gradually grew and grew stronger. The little Munich boy wearing a monk's robe on the city emblem also symbolized the origin of the city name.
Munich concentrates buildings of different styles in the Middle Ages: towering Gothic, magnificent Baroque to classical architecture that returns to ancient Greek style.
It is like browsing a living historical picture. The old street connecting the two oldest city gates in Munich, Karlstor and Isarsor, divides the old city into two parts, but along the street are various fashionable brand stores and modern cafes.
The north of the street is the place where the former nobles ruled and lived with the imperial palace as the center; the south of the street is the old handicraft and commodity trading area. In the old days, the lives of ordinary people and nobles were only one way away.
Not far from the street, the striking onion tower top attracted the attention of Yunluo and Yan Chenyu. This is the most famous city symbol of Munich, the frauenkirche. The 99-meter-high onion tower can be seen from anywhere. The exterior of the church is Gothic red bricks.
When building the top of the tower, a typical Renaissance onion was selected due to a shortage of funds. At this time when the clouds fell, the northern tower of Our Lady's Church was in the process of good deeds.
The day I arrived in Munich happened to meet the tail of the Oktoberfest. I was really excited at first, but after checking the hotel prices in Munich that day, I said I couldn’t be happy. The small hotel, which is usually 70 to 80 euros, also rose to 200 euros during this grand Oktoberfest. I snatch the money! Ah!
For this reason, I once wanted to avoid the Oktoberfest and skip Munich, but Yun Luo liked to join in the fun. After a long decision, he finally chose to be slaughtered just to catch a big market.
On the day of arrival, the weather was not very strong, and it started to be windy and rainy from the afternoon. In the evening, I saw that the weather stopped and the wind was weak, so I went out to "go to the market". From Karlsplatz Station, take u4/u5 to get off at there private enwie station. Almost everyone on the subway was wearing ethnic costumes to "go to the market".
At first I thought these people were all locals in Munich, or at least Germans, but later I heard everyone talk and found that many foreign tourists were very professional in coming to the market. They would buy a set of local ethnic costumes to better integrate into the carnival atmosphere. As the crowd lined up and walked out of the subway station, the rain had already started to drift. The rain was getting stronger and stronger. In a few minutes, the heavy rain had already made tourists flee everywhere.
I wanted to find a large tent selling beer to get into the rain, but I found that the tent had already been closed and it was hard to find. People who were waiting for seats at the door had turned into chickens. A large crowd rushed to the subway station, and the carnival that night ended early. Some people who had been in their seventies or eighties were staggering with bottles of wine and slowly moved forward in the crowd of people who were panicking to hide from the rain.
It seemed that Yun Luo was completely unaware of the heavy rain. With an umbrella, he looked at the warm and lively beer tents. He knew that Yun Luo had no chance with them tonight, so he went home in disappointment...
The next day, after the rain, the sky was clear, and I was unwilling to have not had the big beer from the Oktoberfest the day before, so I temporarily changed my itinerary and dropped a small town I was going to visit in the afternoon, and continued the Oktoberfest!
This time, take u3/u6 from Maji En-platz station to gortheplatz station. There is still a winding journey from the subway station to the Oktoberfest Square, but there is no need to worry about not being able to find it. As long as you follow the crowds in ethnic costumes, you can arrive at Theresa Square smoothly.
At noon, the beer tent was full. You should know that such a tent could accommodate thousands of people at the same time. The tents of the entire Oktoberfest combined can accommodate nearly 100,000 people! The band played cheerful music in the huge beer tent, but the sound was often overwhelmed by people cheering.
