Take yourself on a journey through
time: Bavaria invites its visitors to
­experience exquisite and magnificent
craftsmanship, superior shopping
opportunities and fairytale holiday
lodges.
The white and blue rhombuses of the
Bavarian emblem go back to the earldom of Bogen and one of the oldest
noble families of Germany: the Wittelsbacher. This blue-blooded heritage is
visible everywhere throughout the
­diverse holiday destination of Bavaria.
Travelers interested in experiencing
the royal Bavaria will be dining like fair
­castle ladies and aristocrats in splendid
knight’s halls or will enjoy residing in
royal style lodges.
Sneak a peek at Bavaria’s glamorous
days or yore, for example, by visiting t­ he
castle Dennenlohe in Unterschwaningen.
This castle is located in fairytale, romantic gardens. Travelers can be guests of
the baronial family and stay in the lovingly renovated hotel rooms of the castle. Another impressive highlight is the
King Ludwig I castle park in ­Bad Brückenau which presents imposing flowerbeds
and impressive arrangements of roses.

A New Look for
München Tourismus
In the future Munich will promote its
tourist offerings, visitor information

and image the manner in which Munich
wants to be perceived. According to ­
the new tourism strategy, Munich positions itself as the European metropolis
for cultural enjoyment and enjoyable
­culture which is both innovative and
steeped in tradition as well as a city for
a profound joy of life.

Swarovski Kristallwelten (Swarovski
Crystal Worlds), one of Austria’s most
popular attractions, is celebrating the
120th anniversary of Swarovski and its
own 20th anniversary. On April 30, 2015
it reopened after an extensive expansion and is now even larger, more sparkling and more fascinating than ever.
With an investment of 34 million euros,
the surface area was more than doubled
within 1.5 years from 3.5 to 7.5 hectares.
Artists and designers from all over the
world, as well as renowned architects,
have created an expansive park landscape with unique installations and new
buildings and attractions to surround ­
the iconic giant. In cooperation with
Swarovski’s international network of
­extraordinary artists, five Chambers of
Wonder were also redesigned.

New Visitors Park with

Europe’s popular hub also claims to be
the Gateway to the world for the youngest
of passengers. The new design concept
of Munich Airport’s public playground –
which is part of the airport’s Visitors
Center – will »offer the world at the
children’s feet«. The significantly increased play area will be divided into five
continents. Children can get attached to
Africa, Europe, Asia, North and South
America in a playful way. Jungle gyms,
swings and sand box toys will be designed
and constructed in association with
each respective continent.
A rope slide runway will connect the
different parts of the world. Children will
be able to travel around the world as
they play. From riding camels in Asia to
surfing in North America or climbing a
rope jungle in South America, there is

something for all. Parents are invited to
enjoy the beer garden which overlooks
the play area.
In addition, the exhibition in the visitor’s
center will receive a facelift. The new
multimedia exhibit equipped with spec­
ta­cular media technology will feature all
kinds of facts and information about the
airport.
After two years of planning and conception, the construction of the themed
playground started in May is set to be
completed in 2016. Africa, North and
South America will be finished and
opened in June of this year.
Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky have come to symbolize classical modernism. The exhibition at Lenbachhaus will focus on the years between 1922 and 1931.
During that time both artists taught at the Bauhaus
and worked closely exchanging artistic ideas and
ultimately influencing each other's work.

Munich Airport posted strong gains in
passenger numbers and air freight in
the first quarter of 2015. With approximately 8.7 million passengers handled,
the airport set a new first-quarter
­record. The number of aircraft movements, at 87,240, was 0.9 percent lower than in the same period in 2014.
This is the result of flight cancellations
during the four-day strike by Lufthansa
pilots in mid-March. The increase in
the number of passengers using the
Bavarian hub can be credited mainly to
gains in international traffic. The strongest growth was seen in the intercontinental segment, where approximately
1.5 million passengers represented an
increase of about 7 percent. In the
continental segment, the number of
passengers rose to nearly 5 million, a
gain of 2 percent. On domestic routes
the figures show a slight rise of 1 percent to 2.2 million passengers.

2014 facts and figures can be viewed here:

Munich is Europe’s first five-star airport
In the spring of 2015, Munich became
Europe’s first airport to be granted fivestar status. This coveted title, considered
the »Oscar of Aviation«, is awarded by
Skytrax, a highly respected London-­
based aviation research institute. The
auditors began their extensive assessment of the airport back in August 2013.
A wide range of activities in every area
of the airport was evaluated and rated.
The Bavarian hub worked relentlessly to
develop and optimize the following five
areas and will continue to do so:
First-Class ambiance and high
comfort standards
In Terminal 2, two departure areas were
tastefully redesigned as recreation areas
where waiting time can be time to relax
or an opportunity to get things done.
Comfortable seating and reclining
benches in the departure areas offer an
inviting place to read or refresh. Newly
designed business areas are ideal for
working.
Wide range of services
Five stars stand for a wide variety of
first-class services such as free wireless internet access with no time limit
or the extensive amenities offered to
travelers with disabilities or families
with small children. The airport offers
exclusive brands as well as an award-­
winning range of bars and restaurants,
including the world’s only airport brewery.
Efficient processes
The airport spent months optimizing
numerous processes for travelers such
as installing the EasyPASS border control
system. »Feedback machines« were set
up all over the airport to enable passengers and visitors to play an active role in
the continuous improvement of the airport’s operations.
Easy navigation
A wide range of information resources
and clear, intuitive navigation are enormously important to visitors and passengers. InfoGate counters throughout
