Olympiapark

Fodor's Review:

On the northern edge of Schwabing, undulating circus-tent-like roofs cover the stadiums built for the 1972 Olympic Games. The roofs are made of translucent tiles that glisten in the sun and act as amplifiers for the rock concerts held here. Tours of the park are conducted on a Disneyland-style train throughout the day. An elevator will speed you up the 960-foot Olympia Tower (EUR 4) for a view of the city and the Alps (on a clear day). There's also a revolving restaurant near the top.

  • Cost: Adventure tour EUR 7, stadium tour EUR 5, tower EUR 4
  • Open: Tour schedules vary; call ahead for departure times
  • Metro: Olympiazentrum (U-bahn 3)
