Rather easy to get to from the city center via the U-Bahn, Olympiapark is directly right across the highway from the BMW Welt, and it can be visited together with the nearby Nymphenburg. It is free to walk around the grounds, but one needs to pay entrance to see the Stadium and the TV Tower, where one can catch a nice view of Munich backdropped by the Alps. The arguments forwarded are satisfactory, with proposed crits. (i) and (ii) being the strongest in my opinion. Indeed the architecture of the tent was innovative, and its pioneering planned integration with the landscape remains to be unique considering that a large part of the area used to be an airport. Among Olympic Parks used previously, it easily stands out as one that continues to be of use (especially the Stadium, Olympic Hall, residential areas, and the Swimming Stadium) and that it did not suffer the same fate as others that ended up being White Elephants.

Another interesting thing is that a hill within the park is an artificial mound made of rubble amassed from the bombings during World War II. Added history attached to this site was the killing of the members of the Jewish team, which has been immortalized by a memorial. Another thing that easily comes to mind when we talk of the Munich Olympics is Waldi, the famous dachshund mascot. Is it a World Heritage-worthy site? It might as well be given place on the list.
