| The English Garden |
...once in a famous German quizshow the candidates were asked, what is the worlds largest citypark:
a) Central Park b) Gorki Park c) Hyde Park or d) The English Garden?
All candidates voted for a) Central Park and got wrong. The correct answer was and still is The English Garden in Munich!
Every year millions of visitors of all continents not only join the famous Oktoberfest, they enjoy themselves in the over 200 years old outrageous citypark, sitting under big old trees, eating, drinking, having fun or simply relax.
Sir Benjamin Thompson, later called Graf von Rumfort, invented the first citypark of this dimension ever in history for all people of the city, 40.000 at that time, no matter if privileged or not. It got their paradise in the mid of the city and still the people of Munich appreciate it throughout all seasons.
