There are rumours that Spandau is not a part of Berlin. But don't listen to them. People who say that are just jealous because they live too far away from this paradise. It is one of the greenest parts of Berlin, with such gems as the Old Town, the Citadel and this treasure of nature, Little Venice and Tiefwerder Wiesen. Just get off the M49 bus from Zoologischer Garten at Pichelswerder Bus Stop direct or at the Stoßenseebrücke and cross the bridge to walk right to get there.
There are a few kayak hire companies along the way where you can hire one and head out on the canals of these beautiful waterways. If you are lucky you might see buffalo or kingfishers, a bird with bright blue feathers.
Little Vanice is also a communal garden colony. Almost every garden has access to the water, so don't be surprised if you see someone jumping into the water already sitting in their kayak.
If you're more in the mood for a walk, this is also an option and no less impressive. The Tiefwerder Wiesen are meadows cut through by the many canals, where the buffalo graze. At the end of a well spend day, don't miss the spectacular sunset view from the Stoßensee Bridge.
