Here comes the twin towers the munich way. these are the tallest structures in munich (the only other one that comes close is the olympic tower ... remember the 1972 munich olympics fiasco?). what's truely amzing is the fact that these towers are really tall ... so tall that i had to take 3 shots and stitch them using my canon photostich. sometimes i wonder what the f were the german kings thinking when building such tall a structure in 19th century with just ladders. obvious presumption is they had too much time or money or both. whatever that be, these are awesome sticks in vintage munich skyline. another aspect to notice as you walk past the munich dwtn is the increasing gothic influence. the other pic i have is the entrance to the dwtn, built much later with the gaudiness of gothic architecture, yet as beautiful as the traditional german style. btw no cars/moving vehicles are allowed in dwtn (for a typical american it's a wow!) ... all u see is people, loads of them! and ofcourse the street performers and musicians!
