Volksfest a.k.a Oktoberfest (not in Munich but Stuttgart!)

The Oktoberfest is one of the most popular event that takes place every year. Ppl usually relate it to Munich, one of the largest city in Germany. Well, it's not wrong. However, Stuttgart has its own version of Oktoberfest as well. Similar to the Oktoberfest in Munich, Stuttgart provides a great variety of food, entertainment and of course, beer 4 everyone to enjoy. Basically, it's like a fun-fair. There are many rides for ppl of all ages. From harmless horse rides for kids to crazy Sky-Screamer for those adventure-seekers. Then there are stalls selling food and drinks like beer, hot-dogs(some up to a metre long!)and snacks. It's all about eat, drink and play, till u drop (or throw up)! =)



This is only a part of the fun-fair. There were MANY types of rides, some are even scary enough to make one wet their pants. Can fight with Spore Escape theme park.



BEER. Without it, there won't be any Oktoberfest. Crowds can be seen lining up just to get into one of the beer-drinking tents. Inside this building are ppl drinking non stop, partying and dancing all day and night with live bands.



Germans love sweet stuff. So all these lovely and so-nice-until-dun-feel-like-eating-them candies r being sold at most stalls here.



Including all these cute chocolate mice. Will u bear to eat them? >.<
