7. Paddle a Boat in the English Garden
Germany’s largest city park is bigger than New York’s Central Park, and contains everything from 36 kilometers of woodland paths to formal gardens and a Chinese pagoda. For kids, it’s a good place to run, let off steam, swing on and ride playground equipment, feed ducks, and ride in paddleboats around the Kleinhesseloher See.
8. Take Time for a Konditorei
You won’t have any trouble finding a konditorei in Munich. These bakery cafés are everywhere, and your kids are sure to spot the rows of luscious cakes in their windows. Inside are tables where you can join a favorite local pastime of having a mid-morning or mid-afternoon «bit of something» with a cup of tea, coffee, or hot chocolate.
