Munich: Trouble finding a decent map.
 

Currently doing Munich. I went to the tourist store and tried to buy a good map of the city. Unfortunately they are all in German. I asked if there were any in English but the lady was quite adamant and could not tell me where I could get one. Can anybody recommend a good map in English and advise at which store I could buy one?

This troll has already been tried.Please choose another one.

This is not a troll. The only maps i saw had all the explanations of famous places opening times etc etc in German. Unless i can find sthg in english it is of little use.

Falcon: You couldn't find the airport.

Even if Falcon were a troll (and I believe that this is not the case), the question is legitimate. I don't know what you mean by a "tourist store" - - are you IN Germany? or in an English-speaking country? Here in America, the place you need to look is in a very large bookstore - - Barnes & Noble or Borders. I feel sure that such a map can be found. But it might not be an appropriate substitute for a GUIDEbook - - with opening times, descriptions, street addresses, et cetera for museums, attractions and so forth. <BR> <BR>Best wishes, <BR> <BR>Rex <BR>

If you're in Munich, go to the tourist info office on the outside of Hauptbahnhof. The maps they have for 1dm (or whatever) have English and German.

Thank you Paige. I'll go there later today. <BR>
