Marienplatz and the Underground



So, Munich is named for the medieval site "zu den Munichen" or the place of the little monks and so, as you can see above center, a little monk is still Munich's symbol today. 
This is the city center, Marienplatz, full of shops and restuaurants, it still has a gilded statue that one of the princes put in place just after the black plague, it's still there!  (be sure not to touch it!!! :)
