Stroll along the „Straße unter den Linden“ or treat yourself with a shopping spree among the Friedrichstraße - where you find exclusive boutiques and shops. To rest and slow down from the vivid city life you can take a break at Gendarmenmarkt, between the German and French cathedral.

Located on the east side of Berlin the „Alex“ is a traffic hub with the berlin government situated in the „Roten Rathaus“. Take some time to stroll through the historic centre of berlin - in the „Nikolaiviertel“. Those small little alleys with cobblestone streets and low buildings take you back to the Middle Ages.

You want to dig further into German history and walk along the border which divided east and west Germany for over 28 years? We recommend you the so called East-Side-Gallery. Famous artists painted the longest still standing part of the wall with different artworks. Once you there its worth visiting the newly opened Mercedes Benz square. You‘ll find a variety of different restaurants and cafes, a cinema, two concerts halls and a mall. Enclosed the East-Side-Gallery is the Oberbaumbridge. That area is a melting pot for the famous berlin nightlife - clubs, bars, beach bars and floating pools leave nothing to be desired.
