Amazing walking tour of Berlin

Tiergarten, Berlin's central park, is an immensely popular venue among residents for running, biking, cycling, skating and general leisure activities. Additionally, the park boasts many beer gardens and restaurants for relaxing.

The Brandenburg Gate has become one of Germany's iconic landmarks and an emblem for nationhood. Additionally, there is a Jewish Museum which details Jewish life in Germany; although, unfortunately it doesn't go into much depth about Holocaust survivors or victims.

Tiergarten

In the late 1700s, Berlin experienced an extraordinary period of prosperity. Population increased, churches and buildings were constructed - an era which witnessed Berlin being recognized for its revolutionary spirit and innovation.

Kaufhaus des Westens (KaDeWe), Europe's second-largest department store, is one of the premier attractions in Berlin. Visitors can spend half a day browsing boutique shops and eating at its food court - one of many exciting activities to do during a visit!

Gedenkstatte Berliner Mauer is an open-air museum dedicated to remembering the Berlin Wall that features numerous walking routes along its course and is free for entry.

Brandenburg Gate

Tempelhof Airport was transformed into a massive city park in 2010, featuring taxiway signs and runway markings still visible from taxiways as well as trees covering many tracks. Of particular note are its iconic water tower covered in rust as well as its 1940 train engine that remain highlights for visitors to enjoy.

On top of the Brandenburg Gate is Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, built during the 1800s. Directly across from Kollhoff Tower is Europe's fastest elevator; then continue south toward Treptower Park and Soviet War Memorial for even more attractions.

Jewish Museum

In the years when Berlin Wall divided the city, this open space became known as "No Man's Land." Guard towers oversaw this zone where sand traps and other forms of physical obstruction were placed to stop East Berliners from fleeing to West Germany.

After the wall fell, artists created an East Side Gallery by painting murals on its 3-mile-long stretch - one of Berlin's most moving sights to see! You'll need a map for entry. Free entry.

Berliner Dom

The Berlinner Dom, or Evangelical Supreme Parish and Collegiate Church (Berliner Dom), was constructed on Museum Island in 1905 as Berlin's largest cathedral church.

At its heart lies a monumental Baroque structure with huge statues and an enormous dome; you can explore both its interior as well as the crypt.

Radisson Hotel Berlin boasts AquaDom, the world's largest freestanding aquarium. You can get a look at it from their lobby - free of charge.

Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

The Holocaust Memorial stands as a somber reminder of its atrocities, offering visitors informational plaques, photographs and stories at their leisure or joining one of several guided tours for a small fee.

Near the Memorial to Murdered Jews of Europe stands an easily recognisable landmark: Fernsehturm (TV Tower). Standing 1200 feet high, this iconic Berlin landmark provides breathtaking panoramic views over its surroundings; inside its bulbous sphere there's even a restaurant! Check our map for directions.

Deutsche Demokratische Republik Museum

Berliners love their kebabs and currywurst, while Berlin boasts some of the finest craft beer production worldwide - which explains why most Berlin food tours feature these delicacies and beverages as main attractions.

Checkpoint Charlie (otherwise known as Checkpoint C) provides visitors with an insight into how East and West were connected during the 28 years the Berlin Wall stood. Also housed there is a museum. View MAP here
