Berlin has more to offer than only remembrances of the past. This trendy city consists of districts with artistic graffiti, big theatres and hip clubs such as the Berghain. For traditional food and drink try the tasty Bockwurst washed down with an ice cold Berliner Weisse...
Fly to Berlin to experience everything you expect from a city tip. Do you want to eat out in splendour? No problem! Go to the Fernsehturm on the centrally located Alexanderplatz. You will get a breathtaking view from the revolving restaurant in this 368 metre high television tower. Do you want to know more about Berlin’s past? Go to the famous Berlin Wall or to a museum about World War II. The Holocaust-Mahnmal Memorial is very impressive. The fun way to see the sights is by segway! But of course you can also explore Berlin using the S-Bahn and
U-Bahn metro.

Tips
-
Visit the Mauerpark - On Sundays, the park is turned into a huge open air flea market where artists sell their crafts, people sell their used stuff and a variety of food stalls cater for all the other needs. On all other days (the sunny ones, mind you) the park is crowded until the wee small hours of the morning, with the usual barbecue/drinking/guitar-playing people. Bernauer Str. 63
