    Mikael Caselitz, 24, was born and raised in Munich and has attended Oktoberfest for years. He said everyone should travel to Munich for the festival at least once in their lives.

    Kind of like hajj to Mecca, but with considerably more beer, leather pants, and cleavage-exposing dresses!

      Comparing it to hajj is quite far off. You have all sorts of statements of place to see “at least once in your life”, be it Venice or New York.
