Berlin
Germany
Berlin combines the culture of New York, the complex but efficient transit of Tokyo, the nature of Seattle and the historical treasures of, well, Berlin.
Berlin is always evolving. It saw the destruction of World War II and the Cold War division of East and West. Germany's largest city, Berlin has been growing rapidly since its reunification. Tourists around the world know Berlin for many things. These include its pivotal role on the world stage, internationalism and tolerance, and lively nightlife. Don't forget the city's bustling cafes, large parks, street art, galleries, palaces, and historical sights. There are many distinct neighborhoods to explore in Berlin. Kreuzberg, Friedrichshain, and Neukolln are cool and bohemian, while Mitte, Prenzlauer Berg, and Charlottenburg are more affluent and known for their restaurants. All are distinctly cosmopolitan.
From the Brandenburg Gate to the Reichstag and Checkpoint Charlie, Berlin's landmarks are impressive. Berlin is a sprawling destination (by European standards), and many of its major sights are spread throughout the city. You'll find yourself taking advantage of its extensive, efficient public transport network, ranging from subways to an official rowboat ferry. Berlin provides a very multicultural and diverse experience. You can expect anything but the traditional. This also goes for the cuisine in Berlin. You'll find more international restaurants than those serving German fare. But you can certainly enjoy a tasty brew and a mouthwatering sausage in Berlin. It's still part of Germany, after all!
What we love about Berlin

What a melting pot! People say, if you cannot find something in Berlin, that it doesn't exist. I can affirm this statement. But let me guide you now to Nikolaiviertel, my favorite setting. Well, yes, it is a setting on and around the only medieval remains in Berlin. For some reason mostly frequented by locals and filled with traditional German restaurants. The Spree gently flows at the edge of this tiny quarter where a dramatic view opens to the Berlin Cathedral. This is my place of pilgrimage. There is a small bar, Zille-Destille, where I always go for a shot and a beer, then head to any of the restaurants around and order a good spaetzle.

Berlin is an amazing city in all possible ways. But if I had to highlight one thing I love the most about it, it's definitely the "outer" neighbourhouds, with all their lovely smaller pubs. I am also in love with the Kreuzberg area, as it gave me the feeling that I can be myself there without being judged.

Berlin is a very unique place. I like the special vibe, which is quite difficult to put into words - it definitely feels like once in Berlin, you are no longer in Germany. The contrast between the historical buildings and modern architecture, as well as the large variety of attractions, diverse cultural scene, and the lifestyle that is both fast-paced and relaxed, all make Berlin a place worth returning to.

JayWay Travel was perfect. They gave a structure to our trip which catered to exactly what we wanted without being part of a group, but also provided the economies that we would have gotten from being in a group.
