Bayern or Bavaria

Hello everyone.. I am planning to take a train from Munich to Salzburg in end Nov. I have read through several threads and understood that the cheapest ticket is the Bayern ticket Eur27 for 2-5 person.





Can I know if a Bavaria ticket means exactly the same thing?

%26quot;Baynern%26quot; is German for the English %26quot;Bavaria%26quot;. So, when in Bayern, please say Bayern. (However, they will understand Bavaria, if you say that.)

In german, %26quot;Bavaria%26quot; is the patron-saint of the Bavarian Freestate, whose bronze figure is overlooking the Theresienwiese field in Munich. The name of the country in german is %26quot;Bayern%26quot;, or officially %26quot;Freistaat Bayern%26quot; !





See for details of the patron:
