One of the most “tourist” activities we participated in during our trip to Munich, Germany was touring the Residenz Museum. And I think it was absolutely worth seeing. Incredible. Another place that sparked my love for architecture and design. The large palace was constructed for the monarchs of the House of Wittelsbach. With over 130 rooms, the halls never seemed to have an end. Each room grander than the last. Even after spending a few hours inside, I know we still missed a few rooms. Of the rooms we did see, however, the detail work was spectacular. There were gold designs, felt wallpaper, murals on ceilings, and so much more, each room unique. Many rooms were destroyed in the war but were reconstructed to look just as they had prior. The layout and design was something that can only be expressed through visiting, but pictures, I find, do better than words.
