　　There is much more to modern Munich than beer gardens. It is Germanys favorite city, insofar as surveys show a majority of Germans would prefer to live there. Some jokingly call it the only Italian city north of the Alps, a reference to Munichs easygoing spirit that contrasts with the staid impression many foreigners have of Germany.来源：考试大的美女编辑们

　　It was in the early years of the nineteenth century that Munich really began to grow, and many of the citys best known buildings date from this time. Despite being the modern metropolis that hosted the 1972 Olympic Games, Munich has retained a quiet charm.

　　直到上世纪初，慕尼黑才真正开始发展起来，许多最知名的慕城建筑都源自那个时期。尽管它曾以现代大都会之姿主办了1972年的奥运会，慕尼黑仍保有其静谧的魅力。当你在“英国花园”──欧陆最大的公园之中漫步，当然还有置身其中的中国高塔和一座啤酒园──你将浑然不觉还身处在大城市之中。
