The city center is the hub of all tourist activity in Munich. Most of Munich's historical sights and name-brand stores are jam-packed into the few blocks between Marienplatz and Odeonsplatz. Struggle through the throngs of ubiquitous international camera-flashers and get yourself the stereotypical Bavarian experience, complete with a night at the infamous Hofbräuhaus and a stroll through the Residenzmuseum and the adjoining Hofgarten. South of Marienplatz is the neighborhood Isarvorstadt, once home to the city's underground nightlife scene. Today it's more a bustling, yuppie neighborhood, but the bars have retained their original bohemian splendor. This neighborhood also houses Munich's GLBT district. To its west is Isarvorstadt-Ludwigvorstadt, Theresienwiesen, otherwise known as the Oktoberfest field, or what we call the stuff of legend. Immediately north of that is the Hauptbahnhof, Munich's central train station, where numerous hostels provide an excellent atmosphere for meeting fellow travelers.
