When I first came to Munich, I was disappointed there weren’t many second hand shops. Second hand shopping is not as ingrained in the city‘s culture as it is in Berlin, but things are slowly beginning to change. Some of the second hand clothes shops still tend to be more upmarket with quite a few shops selling used designer clothes. But there are so many places where you can get second hand clothes now, you’re sure to find something to your liking.
Achenbach’s guide also offers a list of flea markets, Fair trade shops and places where you can exchange stuff or get something for free. Furthermore you’ll find all the information you need for getting around (bikes on loan, public transport, guided bike tours, etc.) And if you just want to enjoy Munich‘s sunny side: There’s a list of lakes, gardens, parks, animal farms, alternative projects to visit and healthy eating places (including some which offer Bavarian fare). In case you live here, you might be interested in the information on allotments and various urban gardening projects. There’s more, but since I’ve run out of breath (and am not on commission), you’ll just have to read the guide for yourself. („Unser grünes München“ is only available in German so far.)
