If you are planning a trip to Berlin, we at TravelGooru have curated this post just for you. Berlin is an extremely affordable place if one knows the right places to be. It has something to offer for whatever kind of traveler you are. Here is a list of a few things that you can do while you are at Berlin:
1. What can you do in Berlin?
There are plenty of lovely things that one can explore in Berlin. However, if you want to experience most of them you will have to make sure that you make some tough decisions and make a list of things that you would like to see and ones that you can miss. Here is a list of things that you can do in Berlin, hopefully, they help you make a good decision:
a. Free stuff and places
If you wish to see the city without spending a fortune, here are some places that you can go to:
Reichstag Dome
This is the parliament building. The dome is absolutely magnificent to look at. And is open for people to walk in even during the night. It is a little crowded during the summer. To visit it, you must register first, though.
The East Side Gallery
This part of Berlin has been painted by various artists and muralists and is completely free if you wish to see the talent the city offers.
Tempelhof Fed
This is an old repurposed airport where you can go to do simple things like flying kites or for a barbeque with friends and family.
b. When the weather is beautiful, you must visit the following places
Sunday Flea Markets
The street markets of Berlin are absolutely delightful. They are fun and quirky and you’ll find things here that you might not find anywhere else. Old books, records, and jewelry lovers must go to this Mecca of shopping.
Tempelhof Inside
The inside of this airport offers English tours every Monday and Wednesday. It seems like this place was frozen in time and we recommend that you take one of these tours especially if it is raining outside.
The Memorial to the Jews
If you are a history buff and want to visit someplace where you can almost feel it, you must visit the memorial as it immortalizes the atrocities that took place in Europe. It serves as a reminder that man is better and we strongly recommend that you visit this place.
