Munich is one of the most charming of all German cities.  This may well be due to the varied styles that sit comfortably together there. Its wide avenues and imposing squares meet with quiet streets and tiny courtyards, its classical buildings stand alongside exceptional works of Baroque architecture such as the Nymphenburg Palace, the Cuvilliés Theatre in the Residenz and the Theatinerkirche.  Munich is also home to the Blaue Reiter, Kandinsky, Brecht and Thomas Mann� Here is a city that successfully combines traditional art with the avant-garde.
