"The Oktoberfest is one of the biggest events that takes place in Munich, Germany, attracting around 6 million people from all corners of the world.. From the end of September to the beginning of October, for around 2.5 weeks, you can hear the sounds of beer mugs clinking within the famous beer tents such as Augustiner and Paulaner, the shrieks of delight from those taking a spin on the numerous adrenaline-pumping rides, and of course the sizzle of the roasted delights coming from the food stalls. It is definitely recommended for you to try out some of the regional highlights which include the authentic grilled "fish on a stick" from Vroni-Fisch, as well as the crispy skin chicken called Hendl. You will find a myriad of foods to taste, both savoury and sweet.As for the beer, take part in guzzling down some of the regions best and contributing to the 6.9 million litres of beer being served! Did you know that, that is enough to fill two and three-fourths Olympic size swimming pools? Absolutely mind-blowing!
Be prepared to make your reservations well in advance as the beer tent queues are extremely long and the insides packed. Whether it be during the day time or when the stars are out, the tents are the most hot and happening places. Families and friends come together to celebrate, eat warm meals, dance to Bavarian folk tunes and drink the famous regional beers.
At the Oktoberfest, it is also a time to show off the traditional clothing of Bavaria. Men are handsomely dressed in their lederhosen while the women look stunning in their dirndl. Different patterns, colours, textures and sizes are to be seen, making the festival even more vibrant. These men and women come together to honour the traditions that started when Crown Prince Ludwig married Princess Therese of Saxony-Hildburghausen on 12th October 1810. To commemorate this harmonious union, the citizens had celebrated on the Theresienwiese ("Theresa's fields"), toasting to a bright and prosperous future - a tradition which has lasted until today and will continue to play an important role in the lives of Bavarians.If you are interested in finding out more about these festivities, then click on the links below, where I, Surya Sridhar, take you through the Opening Day Parade in Part 1 as well as the Oktoberfest specifics in Part 2.
