Hidden in an embassy quarter, Branitzer Platz is a circular square surrounded by chestnut trees. Relax year-round in this natural haven.

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.

Not only was it the best I've ever had, but it also worked wonders — just like the chicken soup my mum used to make when I was little.

How do you know it is good? They only serve pizza and a few drinks, and it's always busy. Enjoy a pizza in Wilhelmstraße straight from the wood-fired oven.

Not only its industrial vibe is a magnet for Vagabund Kesselhaus, but also the great selection of beers you will find here — there are 16 taps of beer.

Every day, especially in the evenings, you can enjoy a variety of spectacular shows; concerts, movie screenings, and even yoga sessions under the stars.

Where the Havel is expansive and winding with many curves and coves, you’ll find Scharfe Lanke — a perfect spotfor a stunning sunset or a peaceful walk.

After a long day of sightseeing, you can lie down on the fluffy grass and take a dip – the deep waters of the Teufelssee provide the perfect cold refreshment.
