Berlin - favorite spots

Hi @kjanina,

since it’s still difficult to go and see something indoors. Here’s an idea for outdoor:



My picture gives you an idea too, where in Berlin the place is :wink:.

Cheers,

Dear Chatterbug Community,
what a nice idea to talk about lovely places in Berlin. I want to recommend another place. It is called Havelchaussee. It is a street through the Grunewald. The BVG send old busses on the line 218. Busses which drove in my childhood. You can take one and follow the line. You can get out of the bus at the station “Schildhorn” and go for a nice walk. Don’t forget your swimsuit, there is an amazing beach! There is also a playground for children. When you get hungry you can eat in the Hotel, or you walk to the ship “Alte Liebe”. Look at the links and get inspired! All the best Ciao Danielaxxx!

Hi everyone,
I was lucky to study in Berlin many years ago, before the wall came down. One of my all time favourite places - and it still exits - is the Biergarden Golgatha in the Viktoriapark in Kreuzberg. Great Atmosphere, great views, relaxed atmosphere… exactly what you’re looking for on a warm summer evenig…

Starting from this month, every first Sunday in the month is free of charge ( Eintritt frei! ) for some museums in Berlin.
Check it out here:


This place is not free of charge, but very funny. Some German knowledge would be good though:

Today 60 years ago 13.08.1961 the GDR ( DDR in German ) started building “the wall” ( die Mauer ). The link is to the Berlin war memorial ( Gedenkstätte Berliner Mauer ).
My father went in 1962 with a friend to Berlin ( coming from the west ), because he wanted to see with his own eyes that they - the GDR - are really going to do this. Here’s a picture from him back then and in 2017 once the wall was long gone at almost the same spot:
