Happy 849th, Munich! 慕尼黑849歲了!

Munich is a very old town - in fact it's celebrating its 849th anniversary this weekend! The city put on a show with typical Bavarian - and sometimes medieval - flair, showcasing a lot of traditional arts and craft as well as food. It wasn't such a big festival this time round, but who knows what is in store when it's the next birthday bash! So next year, there's another good time to visit Munich apart from Oktoberfest - and trust me, the weather in June is generally better than late September (when Oktoberfest takes place)! 相不到慕尼黑已有849年歷史了!本週末市中心便舉行了一個小小慶典,街頭擺賣不少傳統手工藝及食品,頓時充滿巴伐利亞鄉土風采,還有點古時氣息。今年的慶典看來也非特別大規模,大概是要留待明年「大壽」才大搞一番吧!所以要是明年來慕尼黑旅遊的話,不一定等九月杪的啤酒節,這也是一個好的時候——況且六月的天氣一般都較好呢!
