　　Munich, then, is a city of fascinating contrasts. It has terrific museums, architectural treasures, and open-air shopping as well as space-age factories and world-class markets. If you could visit only one city in Germany, the capital of Bavaria would be a worthy choice.

　　由此可見，慕尼黑是一個極具迷人的有鮮明反差的城市。它有令人流連忘返的博物館、建筑珍品，露天商場，也有太空時代的工廠和世界頂級的購物商場。假如你只能訪問德國的一座城市，那么巴伐利亞的首府將是一個絕對值得一游的城市!

　　Despite the city's traditional image, many residents never set foot inside a beer hall or go anywhere near Oktoberfest, which is looked down on by some as a festival only for foreign tourists. These citizens see themselves as part of a thriving, modern metropolis which is the high-tech capital of Germany. Indeed, Munich plays host to a large concentration of communications and electronics firms.

　　盡管慕城具有這種傳統的形象，許多當地居民卻從未涉足啤酒廳和到舉辦“啤酒節”臨近的任何地方。有些人認為這些地方不屑一顧，只不過是外國游客的節慶。這些市民認為自己是一個蒸蒸日上，現代大都會的一部分。它是德國高科技的首都，的確，慕尼黑接納了云積此地的眾多通訊及電子公司。
