Munich Travel Vlogs — Christmas Market, Neuschwanstein & BMW Museum
Our Germany episodes are based in Munich during the Christmas season — a full walking guide to the Marienplatz Christmas market, and a 4K tour of the BMW Museum's famous bowl building and rare M-series cars.
From Munich we also take a Sinhala-language day trip to Bavaria's two most famous royal palaces, Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Palace.

Tips for visiting Germany as a family
- Munich's Christmas markets typically run from late November until just before Christmas — evenings are the most atmospheric, weekdays the least crowded.
- Book Neuschwanstein Castle tickets in advance; entry is by timed guided tour and popular slots sell out.
- A day trip covering both Neuschwanstein and Linderhof is long — an organised tour or a car makes it far easier than piecing together public transport.
- BMW Welt next door to the museum is free to walk around, which is handy if you're short on time or with small kids.
- Sri Lankan passport holders need a Schengen visa for Germany.
