Two Palaces and a Beer Garden

4/8/2017

0 Comments

 
A sunny spring day and you don't have to ask me twice to go on a bike ride to a beer garden for lunch. It wasn't quite as warm as it looked however. It was definitely too chilly for the bike shorts that I was wearing. But the sun was  grand and the trees were budding a tender green.

Bike path along the Nymphenburg Palace wall - still in Munich
Janos and I cycled out of Munich to the west, past Nymphenburg Palace and Blutenburg Palace and its church which is well worth visiting. The interior is beautifully furnished in the late Gothic style.
Picture
Blutenburg Palace still reflects the structure of the 15th-century moated castle. The main building has a surrounding wall with towers and spacious outbuildings, which are dominated by the church.
After 17 km we arrived at the  Bienenheim beer garden in Lochhausen. We sat outdoors of course, as it was a beer garden, but it was still a little too cool. I ordered a proper Bavarian meal and hoped that would warm me up. It helped.

The sun was stronger for the return trip and by the time we pedaled the final kilometers, I was feeling as warm as toast.
