TIME IS BLISS Having time makes us aware again of the essential. Luckily people in Munich haven’t lost their ability to pause – whether it is on the shingle beaches of the river Isar, in one of the numerous relaxing beer gardens, in the spacious English Garden, in the historic structures of the city’s museums or in one of the attentively hosted gastronomic oases that Munich offers. As Munich is situated near mountains and lakes, people here have kept a close relationship with nature and reintegrate it into urban life in many ways. SLOW DOWN in Munich takes you to places where you can take a breather. It guides you to „slow fashion“ boutiques, local fine artisanry, gourmet temples in respect with animal welfare and to creative initiatives of people, who work towards a more forward thinking, sustainable and healthy way of urban life. We wish you an enriching time in Munich, enjoyable conversations and much inspiration to take back home. SLOW DOWN in Munich welcome to the here and now.

But the Isar is not only good for generating power, it is also a popular oasis to recharge one’s own batteries. Since the municipal stretch of river bed was re-naturalised and freed from its straitjacket of canal walls, people enjoy its pebble beaches for a sunbath on their lunch break or even for candle light and barbecue sunsets in summer.
