Leisure travel
All of Berlin’s boroughs have plenty to offer. One of the most renowned areas is unquestionably the Mitte district; located right at the core of Berlin’s historic district. It includes some of the most acclaimed touristic locations such as the Brandenburg Gate, Unter den Linden, Potsdamer Platz, Alexanderplatz, the Reichstag and Berlin Hauptbahnhof. Also, Museum Island, the TV tower and Checkpoint Charlie are located in the same area, which brings together East Berlin and parts of West Berlin. The Mitte and The Scheunenviertel (The Barn Quartier) are two among the most strategic places to be based out of when touring around Berlin. The latter, which is the old Jewish quarter in the central Mitte offers great gastronomic choices as well as bespoke accommodation solutions.
One of the wealthiest districts is undoubtedly Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf. When frequenting this district, it becomes easy to forget you’re in Berlin. A fast-paced environment where you will find tech start-ups and high-end shopping malls- one of which is the recently-opened Apple store- this is where you’ll have excellent shopping and food experiences. Stop at the food court at the department store KaDeWe, to taste a perfect steak of Kobe beef before continuing to shop.
