Taylor Swift is opening up about her time in Munich, Germany on the Eras Tour.

In an Instagram post on Wednesday, July 31, the "Cruel Summer" singer called her shows in Munich over the weekend "a magical experience."

"The crowds of 74,000 people a night in the stadium were so passionate, and so generous to us. And I had no idea before I got to Munich that there’s a huge park behind the stadium, but around 50,000 people came out and listened to the show from the hillside both nights," Swift, 34, raved in her caption.

She continued, "I’ve been watching so many videos of the crowds out there fully participating in the show from afar, all that joy… I’m feeling really grateful for the unexpected memories this tour has created. We have 11 shows left on the European leg of the tour, kicking off *August* with 3 shows in Warsaw!"

During her show on July 28, Swift performed a song live for the very first time during her surprise song segment.

First, Swift played a medley of "I Don’t Wanna Live Forever," her duet with Zayn Malik from the Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack, along with the "imgonnagetyouback", a Tortured Poets Department anthology song, on guitar. She then switched over to piano and performed a mash-up of "loml" from TTPD and the Fearless (Taylor's Version) vault track "Don't You," marking the very first time she performed the song live.

The night prior, Swift took a moment to appreciate the thousands of fans gathered on the Olympiaberg hill outside the Olympiastadion to listen to her play.

"We've got people in a park outside the stadium, thousands of people listening from out there!" she told the crowd. "I just feel so incredibly welcomed, and we're gonna spend all night trying to make it up to you."

Before her shows in Munich, Swift performed in Hamburg, Germany, and thanked her fans on Instagram for taking on the pouring rain with her in what's become one of her newest favorite Eras Tour "traditions."

"Hamburg!! I loved those crowds so so so much," she wrote in a caption. "AND we got a rain show night one, unlocking Fuzzy Hair Me for the evening 😆 Been having a blast watching these new Eras crowd traditions unfold all throughout Europe… You guys are seriously so creative.
