Berlin is a city that is both ugly in spots, and incredibly beautiful in others, but it was always interesting to my eyes. You have an enormous amount of history here, even though much of it was destoryed during WWII and replaced or covered during the Cold War years. You have a fabulous nightlife scene with every type of cafe, lounge, bar, dance club, art and music venues you could possibly want. The energy of the city is magnificently diverse. |

Many Things Make the Conglomerate that is Berlin.. Troubled, but determined to press forward towards the future, Berlin is so many things, a political and cultural centre, a breeding place for intolerance and hate, but also for understanding and universal love. It is spring now, temperatures are rising, passions, excitement, and Berlin bursts forth bloom and leaf in one of the greenest capitals of Europe. There are simply too many places to see, too many things to do in Berlin, one needs to return again and again. And even those living here, sometimes you just have to chose one or two things a week to do, because literally you can tire yourself out with so much fun. |

I like to talk about history but I dislike all the prejudices I often hear. I is direful to be faced with all that trash that we are Nazis and must be racist etc. Thats all. I am a Berliner. | Turtleshell Thu Jan 11, 2007 12:35 UTC
Maybe you should let people who can't read 'Denglish' know that a 'handy' is in fact a mobile phone / cellphone, not some tool you buy in a red light district. ;-) | christine.j Wed Sep 6, 2006 14:24 UTC
Great tip about the Auenkirche.Unfortunately I didn't make it to the Bilderbuch café this time in Berlin, there's just too much to do in this city. |
