What recommendations are there for "must sees" and places to eat? Is Munich a late-night town, or does it go to sleep early? If you had about 30 hours in town, what would you do during that time?

Any help you might give to this newcomer to Germany would be appreciated.
Viktualienmarkt is perfect for a "Weisswurstfrühstück" with brezles and Weissbier. The MUST typical Bavarian breakfast.
This should to be taken in the time from 9am - 12.am.
A very cozy, very traditional Beer-restaurant is the "Valentinsstüberl" around a corner away from Viktualienmarkt. Just gu to the Market and ask for this location.
Also a major must-see in Munich is the Frauenkirche (very good for your pictures, as it´s two towers are a recognition-sign for Munich.
Marienplatz with it´s City-Hall and clockwork, as well as the famous deli-market "Dallmayr" (2 min. away from the City-Hall) are both worth a walk.
If sun is shining and it´s not too cold during your stay, you should take a stroll through the "Englischen Garten", a large Park-Area within Munich. And make sure to plan a stop there at the "Seehaus" or at the "Chinesischem Turm", two of the beautiful and Munich-like beergardens. You get your beer here in "Masskrügen", which take 1l, so start it slowly

Enjoy your trip.
