This week I had to stay in Munich, Germany on the weekend due to job obligations. Since I didn't have to work on Sunday, I took the opportunity to take a tour of Munich. My main point of interest was the Alte Pinakothek, which has an impressive collection of german and dutch paintings from the 15th to 17th century. After taking a look at these paintings (you should do, too), I strolled through Munich's inner city area and took some additional pictures.
