BERLIN
Dubbed the coolest city in Europe by those in the know, Berlin is at the forefront of live music and art. It's a whole lot of fun, there's beer to be drunk, it's the Bauhaus!!! With too many world class clubs to choose from and a history which is hard to rival anywhere else in Europe Berlin has something for everyone. Take a bicycle tour around the city and discover the hidden gems which lurk down this great city's side streets or lounge by the river on one of the many man made beaches a stones throw from a bar bulging with quality German beer.

ReichstagThe Reichstag - the seat of the German Parliament, is one of Berlin's most historical landmarks. It symbolically encapsulates Berlin's turbulent history and recent revival. Right on the border between East and West Berlin at the Pariser Platz, the Brandenburger Gate was the symbol of the city's divide. |

Checkpoint Charlie (Mauermuseum Haus)Checkpoint Charlie is one of the ultimate symbols of the Cold War, epitomizing the separation between east and west Germany. For nearly 30 years, this checkpoint represented not only a divided Germany but a world in political turmoil... |

Brandenburger TorSince the fall of the wall, the Brandenburger Gate has become the symbol of a reunified Berlin. The desolate area that Pariser Platz was during the cold war is now completely redeveloped and has regained much of its 19th century grandeur. |

The Schloss CharlottenburgEarly 18th century baroque palace in Berlin's Charlottenburg district. The Charlottenburg palace is the largest palace in Berlin. It was built in several stages. The original, central part was constructed between 1695 and 1699. It was intended as the summer home for Sophie Charlotte, Elector Frederick III's wife. |

AlexanderplatzFormerly one of the most important squares in the city, it was destroyed in WW2 and has benefited from Berlins embracing of the new and daringly contemporary. So you'll find one of Europe's tallest structures; the 205m Fernsehturm - (or the toothpick tower, as the locals call it) and 'the World Clock' which tells the time anywhere on Earth... |

Tiergarten Park & Berlin ZooThe 2.5 sq. km Tiergarten is the largest park in the city. Its more than 23 km of pathways make it popular for those in the group who are looking for a leisurely place to stroll and chill out. The park is still home to the Berlin Zoo... (yes that is why we have a photo of a Hippo!)... resident animals - numbering about 13,000 in all enjoying life in one of the best natural open zoo habitats anywhere... |

Holocaust MemorialDesigned to commemorate the murder of six million European Jews at the hands of Hitler and his forces, the Holocaust Memorial is made up of 2,711 gray stone slabs that bear no markings, such as names or dates. Definitely worth a visit to pay your respects...
More Info
Admission: Free Website: www.holocaust-mahnmal.de/en The slabs undulate in a wave-like pattern. Each is a five-sided monolith, individually unique in shape and size. Some are only ankle high while others tower over visitors. Eisenman (architect) hoped to create a feeling of groundlessness and instability; a sense of disorientation. Most will agree that he succeeded. Visitors may walk through the memorial in any direction as there is no set pattern to the stones. The architect has said that he hopes it will merely become a natural part of the city. The Holocaust Memorial can be visited at anytime night or day. Close |

ShoppingThere are countless places in Berlin for shopping sprees: wickedly expensive temples of consumption, flea markets and antique markets, cheap bargain stores and the whole spectrum in between. The city offers clothing of all varieties, from up-market to cheap: luxury designers are based at the west end of Kurfrstendamm and in Friedrichstrasse. |
NightlifeBerlin has what policemen call ‘previous’ in this department: in the 1920s and ‘30s, the city’s nightscape was legendary for its progressive, perhaps even subversive attitude. Today there’s no where in the world that can compete with Berlin when it comes to the sheer diversity of its nightlife. Berliners genuinely regard their home as the hippest in the world, which means you can find everything from pubs housed in derelict ruins to funky beach bars.... Diversity is the name of the game here! |
QuasimodoLocated beneath the Quasimodo Cafe and Delphi Cinema, this much-loved jazz cellar is one of Berlin's oldest. You can always be sure of one thing at Quasimodo - hearing amazing music. In recent years, the joint's repertoire has expanded, and top-flight jazz is complemented by a good mix of blues, Latin and funk... Ok so not your typical AU night, however this is why you are here - so check it ou! |
BerghainThe dangerously hip come here to see-and-be-seen. Installed in a renovated old power station, Berghain looks unassuming enough on the outside, but within you'll find an impressive venue packed with the beautiful people of Berlin sweating it out to hard techno and electro... |
Reich und Sch'nRising from the ashes of Berlin's famous celebrity-haunt - the 90 Degrees Club - is Reich und Sch'n (Rich and Beautiful). The sound track spans soul classics, hip-hop favourites and house music, with DJs dropping vinyl in three different spaces.... |
Maria am OstbahnhofYou really ought to try to catch some cabaret whilst visiting Berlin and this gaff has it with a contemporary twist Maria's is home to Berlin's electro avant-garde. The club houses two performance spaces, the smaller of which is called Josef. Lots of visual and multimedia musical acts appear, ranging from local to international performers. |
Food + DrinkBerlin is a great city for dining out, with restaurants to suit every pocket. Those tummies on a budget (i guess most of you?) can always enjoy an Imbiss ("snack"). These are usually small huts with a few tables outside where you can stand and eat your Bratwurst in a bun. You should definitely sample a Currywurst - a Berlin tradition which involves a sliced smoked and boiled sausage smothered in thick curry flavoured ketchup... (good substitute for a kebab we think!).
