Altstadt is a good choice for first-time visitors as the old town is in the heart of the city and has charming Bavarian style. There are cobbled streets and neo-gothic buildings aplenty, and it’s easy to explore on foot. Just to the north, Maxvorstadt is a cultural neighbourhood that is also popular with tourists thanks to its close proximity to museums and art galleries. If you want something a little more bohemian, try Glockenbach, an arty, LGBT-friendly neighbourhood with cool coffee shops, bars and lively nightlife.
