**Exif II* @ ( 1 2 ; ' 5 i H English Garden, Munich, Germany, 2015 - People congregating on the banks of the Schwabinger Bach stream in the Schonfeldwiese area of the park. The Schonfeldwiese, the “Beautiful Meadow”, is considered a cultural gem for nudists. Germany has allowed nude beaches since 1920, and in Munich the Englischer Garten has been a place for people hanging out naked since the 1960s. The Englischer Garten, German for "English Garden", is a large public park in the centre of Munich, Bavaria, stretching from the city centre to the north-eastern city limits. Stretching north from Prinzregentenstrasse for about 5km, it was commissioned by Elector Karl Theodor in 1789 and designed by Benjamin Thompson, an American-born scientist working as an advisor to the Bavarian government. With an area of 3.7 km2 (1.4 sq mi) (370 ha or 910 acres), the Englischer Garten is one of the world's largest urban public parks, larger than New York's Central Park. The name refers to its English garden form of informal landscape, a style popular in Britain from the mid-18th century to the early 19th century and particularly associated with Capability Brown. The Englischer Garten is home to the largest urban surfing spot in the world and a mecca for fans of the sport. Surfers ride the artificial waves on the Eisbach River all year round, which are created by torrents of freezing water being pumped over a stone step. The water flows at about 20 tons per second.
