What to buy in Munich?
For an iconic souvenir of your trip to Munich, try a traditional beer stein – these one-litre glass or ceramic mugs are often decorated with local landmarks and beer-hall insignias. Or perhaps take home some Leder-hose, the iconic leather knickerbockers of the area that get better with age and wear.
Birkenstocks are generally less expensive in their place of origin, Germany and Schuh Seibel in Reichenbachstrasse, Munich will ship your purchases home for you so you won’t need to cart them around for the rest of the vacation.
