Kind of huge and boring. Might once have been an interesting place before the many identical shops opened. Ugly buildings. More

Just go and soak in the ambience, the crowds, the hustle and bustle, the buskers, the hot-dog style vendors that have their whole feeding station carried on their chest. More

There was numerous people hanging out during all 3 days. You can grab a large stein of beer and a bratwurst at the beer garden that;s part... More

It reminded me of... More
