We were asked for the credit card we have used on our way back to Salzburg from Munich.
We were in the city of Salzburg the whole day yesterday, 10 June 2013. We started in the morning at Hellbrunn Palace and the Trick Fountains. We spent the whole afternoon visiting the film locations of 1965 movie, The Sound of Music: Mirabelle Garden and around Residentzplatz. Please click the links for our yesterday's wanderlust.
At Salzburg station, waiting for the train bound to Landshut (Bay) hbf.
Our train was supposed to be the Railjet 260 direct to Munich. Due to some default, we were assigned to other train, DBR 27084.
We alighted at Mühldorf (Oberbay) at 10:14 and to transfer to another train bound to München hbf or Munich station
At Mühldorf (Oberbay) station. The train to Munich was expected to arrive at 10:30 and to reach Munich about 11:35am
Had RJ 260 not cancelled, we would had reached Munich at 10:30am.
Munchen Hauptbanhof- is the main railway station in the city of Munich. It has 32 platforms. The station is close to city centre. The main entrance to the east is the way to Karlsplatz (Stachus)
At Karlsplatz (Stachus). Stachus is a large square in central Munich and was officially named Karlsplatz. Munich natives still call the square Stachus.
Below photo shows behind the neo-baroque Justizpalast (Palace of Justice), located at the west side of the square.
The fountain is seen in the summer. In winter, an open-air ice rink is seen instead.
In front of the fountain is Karlstor, a gothic gate of the demolished medieval fortification, and the Rondell buildings on both sides.
Heading now to Marienplatz, passing through the very busy pedestrian area of the city which houses numerous shops and restaurants.
We did not go to the underground which contains a large shopping center. The picture below shows the way down to the Kalrsplatz U-Bahn and S-Bahn. U for underground, S for Suburban.
Nearing the Jesuit Church, Sankt Michael, we could see behind the two towers. Those are the church towers of the Munich Frauenkirche, with full name, Dom zu Unserer Lieben Frau, " Cathedral of Our Dear Lady"
The Cathedral was erected in 1468
The towers are widely visible due to the city's restriction on heights of the buildings that should not exceed 99m.

Sankt Michael is Jesuit Church in Munich. They style of the building had been influenced by the Baroque architectures in the Southern Germany during in the earlier years.
