Underground Landscapes
== Short Introduction to the Area of Study ==


Karlsplatz is one of the busiest stations in Munich as in 2009, 351 million passengers rode the U-Bahn. This is why it is one of the most important landmarks in Munich and therefore an everyday landscape both for locals and tourists. Since its construction in the early 1970s it developed as a “city within the city “. It houses a shopping center, bank, food courts and ticket counters in 5 levels underground, differentiated by color and texture in order to make the experience of the travelers an easier and better one, as well as in above ground it connects to the main tourist’s attractions and the shopping district.

Short Introduction to the Area of Study

Karlsplatz is one of the busiest stations in Munich as in 2009, 351 million passengers rode the U-Bahn. This is why it is one of the most important landmarks in Munich and therefore an everyday landscape both for locals and tourists. Since its construction in the early 1970s it developed as a “city within the city “. It houses a shopping center, bank, food courts and ticket counters in 5 levels underground, differentiated by color and texture in order to make the experience of the travelers an easier and better one, as well as in above ground it connects to the main tourist’s attractions and the shopping district. Its importance is emphasized by the fact that all public transport lines intersect in this point, making it a very known place by the people that pass through it every single day and somehow do not consider it as “their everyday landscape”.
