Munich’s Deutsches Museum is a fantastic science and technology museum. We spent a few hours there and only saw a fraction of their excellent exhibits. We could easily devote several days to it. Detailed explanations were given in both German and English.
The detailed dioramas about bridge building were even more impressive.
If you just want to look at vehicles, there’s th free BMW World (and a BMW museum, which we didn’t visit).
Out and about in the city, the public transition network was equally impressive. We’ve never seen such a well-connected system, with closely-spaced stops in the city and out to the suburbs. A ticket for unlimited rides on the U-Bahn (subway), S-Bahn (local trains), tram, and busses cost only 20.20€ (about $22) for a week – what a bargain! The U-Bahn was just a block from our apartment and the trains ran every 4-8 minutes. German engineering (and public infrastructure) at its finest!
