 Oktoberfest by globetrott
Oktoberfest will always start in SEPTEMBER !
It will always end the 1st sunday in October, and will start 2 weeks before on saturday at 12.00 noon.
As October 3rd is the German national holiday, this rule is a bit different, and the fest might be extended, when Oct. 3rd is a monday or tuesday .
sounds complicated, but it is not !!
The schedule for the next years is :
2005: Sept.17th - Oct.2nd
2006: Sept.16th - Okt 1st
2007: Sept.22nd - Okt 7th
2008: Sept.20th - Okt.5th
2009: Sept.19th - Okt.4th
2010: Sept.18th - Okt.3rd
2011: Sept.17th - Okt.2nd
Be prepared :
1)Book your hotel by all means, at least when you plan to come to Munich on Friday-Sunday +oct. 2+3.
2)Leave your car at home, take the subway - police is everywhere watching you, and the subway and S-bahn connections are great ! Leave a Comment

Answer: it is the beautiful sculpture of Venus,
for sure this is the right answer, and I was so impressive to stand beside this gorgeous piece of art and take a photo with, and I felt as I was took back on the years to Old Greece! Leave a Comment

Not mentioning the victims from countries he tried to capture, in a funny way this is the biggest dictator in France and French time, but many French people are real fans of him! Leave a Comment

In a lot of cities of Europe, there's a big clock, who becomes a symbol, and a touristic atraction. Althoug the queen of the clocks is without doubt Switzerland, I have chosen this in Viena. Every hour, a lot of tourist wait to see the mouvement of the pieces and hear the music. Leave a Comment
