Münster, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, has a population of about 270.000 excluding most of the 48.000 students enrolled in the university.
The city was awarded the LivCom Liveable Community Award in 2004.
Münster is located only 40Km from Osnabrück and I took these pics the same day in late april I took the Osnabrück pictures .
I could have taken way more intersting pictures in these very charming and lively city but sadly I only had about 2 and a half hours but hopefully I’ll be back soon with a better camera. This city deserves it.
Walking towards the city centre from the central station.

Notice the amount of bikes parked on the left side. Münster truly is a city of bikes rather than cars.

Going back to the central station. Münster is not a very dense city. In fact my hometown which has almost twice the population of Münster is smaller in size.
