Treptower Park is admittedly not a place I frequent so often, especially considering how close I…read morelive to it. However, it is a place that I am fond of and enjoy every time I am there. In particular, its location on the water is a major positive. There is almost always a cool breeze and plenty of things to see, such as people on boat cruises. The wide expanse of green lawns means that there are plenty of people picnicking, studying, or playing frisbee, but it never tends to be overcrowded - another plus point in my book. The park is also home to a beer garden (Das Zenner), a former amusement park (Spreepark), the Soviet War Memorial, rose gardens and fountains, and it leads over to the Insel der Jugend, another interesting place to check out. All in all, a great place to relax and take it easy without worrying about the crowds.

I really like this place, it is really just like its name. inside this places full of gardens which…read moredifferent styles and cultures from around the world. I came here for the Cherry Blossom Festival recently, it was just beautiful. althought we have to drove quite awhile and waited on the line for some time, I think it really worth it. They offer different kind of evnet during the year. So there is always a good reason to pay a visit. The place is really huge, it might take more than one day to check out everything. there are many different areas inside, so far I only visited couple of them, such as Chinese Garden, Japanese Garden, and some other small garden. The chinese Garden looked really great. got a small lake inside, it was quite a nice place to take a break or take great pictures. The Japanese Garden was also amazing, especially in spring, with the Cherry blossom, just really romantic and beautiful, it got a zen garden inside, just follow the path you won't miss it. I also been to other small one, they weren't as grand as these two I just mentioned, but they were also great. I am sure there are more cool and beautiful places inside this place I haven't check them out yet, so I am sure, I will come back. And who doesn't like a small escape from the city life. The garden of world isn'T free to enter. the price of the ticket usually cost 5 euro, but it changes depend on the festivals which is hold during certain period. Just have a look on their page before heading here.

This is one of those grand European architectural locations. Once you get anywhere near this area,…read morewhat you will find are great cathedrals, beautiful buildings, and a very large square. The center point of this area is the large square. My suggestion is that you go and stand in the center of it, look around, and study its true uniqueness. What you will experience is one of the best places to view the grandeur of historic Berlin. Around this very large square, what you will find, (occasionally), is that they will have marketplaces. These marketplaces are usually seasonally orientated. Meaning, if it's Christmas season, you will find a great selection of Christmas orientated items. The main reason you come here is not so much simply to go shopping or dining, of which there are a lot of places to check out around the surrounding area, but to go inside some of the structures, and truly bask in the architectural glory of the statues, the way the buildings were constructed, and all of that kind of stuff. This isn't really a highly-touristy Berlin location. Which, is a good thing. Meaning, you can come here and really bask in a historic Berlin, which is deeply rooted in history. It will provide you with the true flavor and culture of Berlin. Overall, I would suggest that you do go here. You just need to know what to expect. There's not necessarily a lot to do, unless you truly appreciate the finer elements of architecture. But, it's a great place to visit.

I especially enjoyed looking at the expressions on the faces of the sculptures within the gates of the church. The artist truly captures a feeling. I walked here from the hotel I was staying at and enjoyed lunch in the immediate vicinity. It is a place to visit when in Berlin.
