Things to do in Berlin

Berlin, Germany’s dynamic capital, is a city steeped in history yet pulsating with a modern, creative edge. It’s a place where remnants of the Berlin Wall stand beside trendy cafes, and grand museums sit alongside edgy street art. Berlin has 3.644.826 inhabitants.

Now is the time you can once again visit Berlin. Enjoy all the classic hotspots, or take a break from the hustle & bustle, and head towards the wide-open city lakes and green spaces for some action-packed outdoor activities.

When people think of BerIin, the first thing that probably comes to mind is its most famous landmark – the Brandenburg Gate. A symbol of division for decades, the monument has always been at the heart of a major city bursting with ideas, inspiration, art, culture and creativity. Wonderful residential areas, sophisticated galleries and the Kurfürstendamm – the very definition of an exclusive shopping street – can all be found in the west of the city. And the nightlife is not to be missed, either.

Berlin’s prestigious Unter den Linden boulevard extends eastwards, passing the Museum Island UNESCO World Heritage Site as well as numerous buildings that have been instrumental in the city’s history.

The best time to visit Berlin

Not surprisingly, given its never-ending attractions, the city experiences year-round crowds. The period just after Christmas and the shoulder seasons of early spring and late fall are less busy, but visits should be coordinated to take advantage of the city’s many events. Perhaps the very best month to visit Berlin is in May when the weather has warmed, and festivals are in full force.
