Did you know...
For those of you who wish to begin the year 2004 in the great outdoors watching the fireworks while sipping champagne, there are plenty of excellent locations around town:
Friendensengel—the crowd is a good mix of young and old and the view down Prinzregentenstrasse is spectacular.
Hackerbrücke—while the trains beneath you create long chains of light, the sky above is filled with colorful explosions.
YMarienplatz—this location can get a bit loud and wild. Not a place to come
with small children.
Monopteros—a romantic place to begin the New Year, with the best view of the fireworks at P 1.
Münchner Freiheit—a favorite destination for locals and this year for the first time the Schwabing Christmas Market organizers plan to celebrate the New Year with live music and food and drink.
Olympiaberg—if you are not too tipsy to make it to the top of the hill, the panoramic view from the top is probably the best in Munich.
Many of the city’s bridges offer a great view of the fireworks and are less crowded than the locations listed above.
