Just off of East Highway 246 in the town of Solvang, California, an eye-catching sign depicts an adult male ostrich, its black and white feathers spread like the fans of a performer in a Vegas show. Just beneath the display, in big block letters: “OSTRICHLAND USA,” and “FEED THIS BAD BOY!”

Germany is packed with culture, beautiful landscapes, meaningful activities, and fun adventures. There is an exciting and diverse selection of things to do in Germany’s many towns and cities, including Munich, the incredible lifestyle capital. Munich is Bavaria’s largest city and the third biggest city in Germany, following Berlin and Hamburg. Munich is a medieval city and has many historical Bavarian traditions, centuries old buildings, museums, several of the largest breweries in the country, and their famous Oktoberfest Celebration. But Munich is also home to sporting events, unique cafés, amazing shopping, and nature. Keep reading to discover five ways to explore this exciting city.
Germany is hosting EURO 2024, a European Championship packed with action and perfect for sports fans. Munich is one of the host cities and the excitement starts in June. The Munich Football Arena opened in 2005 and has a capacity of over 75,000 seats where devoted fans can cheer on their favorite players. Also called Allianz Arena Munich, this massive venue hosts other major events like the World Cup. Even without tickets to games, visitors can sign up for a guided tour and find out about the fascination of football. Get a glimpse of the players’ dressing rooms, the tunnel, coaches’ bench, press conference area, and main stadium. Learn about the preparations for EURO 2024 and the history of football in Germany, just don’t make the North American mistake and call it soccer.
While in Munich sports fans can also visit Olympic Park, a huge arena in the middle of the city that’s a wonderful example of sustainable construction, unique architecture, and use of sports facilities. If you dare, take a roof tour for breathtaking views of the city.
Is there anything better than cuddling furry felines when traveling? Cat lovers must visit Katzentempel München (Cat Temple), a purrfect cat café home to six adorable German rescue kitties. I instantly fell in love with Zuzu, Zazu, and Kiara, who not only posed for photos, but kept me company since I was dining alone. When the cats move into their senior years they go live with an employee of the restaurant.
Katzentempel’s philosophy is to love all animals and create their meals entirely from plants. The vegan menu includes healthy options like the scrumptious Rainbow Bowl, Save The Ocean Sandwich, or Hangover Breakfast, in case you drank too many beers the night before.
“We personally find it contradictory to consume animal products alongside live animals, our temple cats. Why love some and eat others?... A vegan meal not only sets an example for animal welfare and against the evil system of factory farming. This also does good for the environment.” - Katzentempel München

Where To Drink In London: 14 Of The City’s Best Bars, According To Gin Entrepreneur Simon Ford
They drink differently in London than we do here in New York. For one thing, pubs open—and close—a lot earlier. For another, expect to buy a round for your friends at a pub, and count on them to buy you a drink in return. (All of which may explain why they drive on the wrong side of the road.)
