What is life like in Berlin?
Travel Tips
I lived in Germany for 14 years (mostly in the Mannheim/Heidelberg area which is in southern central Germany), and I have visited Berlin many times. My impression was always that Berlin is the most metropolitan of all the German cities; the pace is fast and the feel of the city is very modern and hip. It is also a cultural mecca- wonderful museums, architecture, symphony, theater, etc. You can say the same things about other cities in Germany, such as Munich, Cologne, Hamburg, etc., but the thing that I always thought really set Berlin apart was the very contemporary, on-the-pulse-of-what-is-hip feeling you get there; it's very much like being in New York, Paris, and other world-class cities. I hope this helps somewhat... |
