Guidebook for Berlin
Sightseeing
This panorama exhibition of the Berlin Wall is right next to Checkpoint Charlie and takes you back into the 1980's. From an elevated platform you will have an 180° - view of the wall from a west-side perspective. The imagery is underlined with a sound-scape and changing night/day shifts. It's a artistic master piece and I strongly recommend it - no other museum/exhibition in Berlin gives you a feeling of the atmosphere during times of separation as much as this one.

Shopping
A concept design mall - very alternative clothes for a higher price category. Very cool architecture, hipster culture, and yummy coffee and foods. Right by the Gedächtniskirche and the zoo.

Sunday Fleamarket with a great "food court" and lots of local crafts and handmade products. Visited by locals and tourists alike. Better not go on a rainy day. The park next to it has remains of the Berlin wall.

My go-to bar in Berlin. Cheap drinks, amazing atmosphere. Hard-rock bar with pool, fussball, and a beergarden which closes later in the evening. Try the Mexikaner shot - they have the best ones in twon (tastes kinda like a bloody mary).

If you want a very Berlin-style techno night, go here. Unlike any other club you've seen before. Lot's of rooms (sometimes hidden) to have a dancing break and chill out with friends. 4 dance floors or so. Outside area with log-fires in the winter time.
This club has a strict door policy and very long waiting lines. Let me know if you want to go here and I'll give you some tips.

Very fancy, hidden burlesque bar. Must ring the door to get in. Very dressed up place (vintage suit & tie, dresses, etc.). Not budget friendly, but worth the experience. Burlesque shows on Saturdays. We can help you get a reservation if you want.
