Munich is emerging as a young, laid-back hub that’s balancing tradition and innovation in unusual ways. Take a look at the Schlachthofviertel, a rapidly evolving cultural district centered around a slaughterhouse that has sprung to life with nightclubs and bars. It is a beautiful home for the Volkstheater,one of the city’s main playhouses. If you intend on visiting Munich in the summer, don’t miss the Munich opera festival, which is about 150 years old.
