An ideal place to browse on a walk through Munich, this village-style market has been in existence since 1807 and remains popular with gourmets because of its excellent farm and more exotic produce. Its Biergarten is also a popular meeting point - the perfect spot for a thirst-quenching beer and a portion of obazda, a cheese-based dish eaten with pretzels. The market is surrounded by six fountains, two portraying the comedian Karl Valentin (1882-1948) and his partner Liesl Karlstadt.
