Simply grabbing a couple of soft drinks and enjoying them in one of the city&#8217;s many parks is a fantastic plan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ubhan-friedriechshein-berlin.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28912 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ubhan-friedriechshein-berlin-700x415.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"415\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ubhan-friedriechshein-berlin-700x415.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ubhan-friedriechshein-berlin-250x148.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ubhan-friedriechshein-berlin-120x71.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ubhan-friedriechshein-berlin.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>What is there to do in Berlin?<\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;re spoilt for choice: from Gleisdreick, where you can watch the metro pass over the surrounding bridges; Tempelhofer Feld, a former airport that is now teeming with kites; to Tiergarten, the city&#8217;s most famous <em>green lung<\/em>. And if any of these options are too far for you, you can always head off to the nearest <em>biergarten<\/em> &#8211; there are plenty to choose from!<\/p>\n<p>Mauerpark, to the east, famous for hosting the capital&#8217;s most famous <em>flea market<\/em>, is another of the city&#8217;s must-visit gardens, where you&#8217;ll find everything from antique knick-knacks to delicate handicrafts. All this while the sweet aromas of diverse international cultures caress your nose, as there is a multicultural <em>food-truck<\/em> area ready to delight your palate with authentic flavours. But the Berlin itinerary does not end here. It wouldn&#8217;t be a perfect Sunday without music. You can tune up your vocal chords by singing along to some of your favourite songs at the live karaoke in the middle of the park, which attracts hundreds of locals, tourists and curious onlookers every week. Markets, especially at the weekends, are a very popular activity. On top of all this, you can find unimaginable bargains!<\/p>\n<p>Of course, summer wouldn&#8217;t be the same without a dip in the sea, and although you won&#8217;t find a beach in Berlin (not a natural one, anyway), the outskirts of the city are dotted with lakes, like <em>Wansee<\/em> and<em> Tegelsee<\/em>, which can be accessed directly via public transport. The water is tied to the origins of the capital&#8217;s name, as Berlin used to mean marshy ground. Another less distant option is to see the city by boat on the River<em> Spree<\/em> , a lovely<em> tour<\/em> that will introduce you to the most iconic areas of the metropolis while you enjoy a refreshing sparkling water.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_28900\" style=\"width: 522px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/parque-de-tempelhof-berlin-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28900\" class=\"wp-image-28900 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/parque-de-tempelhof-berlin-1.jpg\" alt=\"Tempelhofer Feld, a former airport converted into a park.\" width=\"512\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/parque-de-tempelhof-berlin-1.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/parque-de-tempelhof-berlin-1-250x333.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/parque-de-tempelhof-berlin-1-120x160.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-28900\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tempelhofer Feld, a former airport converted into a park.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>What not to miss in Berlin?<\/h2>\n<p>Not forgetting, of course, the endless <em>must-sees<\/em> that the birthplace of techno has to offer, where history, gastronomy, art and culture come together in a way that is seen in few other destinations around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Best of all? Most of the sights are relatively close to one another and you can visit them all on foot (or by bike, as there are plenty of these all over the city).<\/p>\n<p>We start our tour at Potsdamer Platz, a completely new area that was completely destroyed by Allied bombing and which now houses several modern glass buildings, including the Sony Centre with its futuristic dome. Down the street we come across the Holocaust Memorial, a heartfelt monument to all the Jewish victims of the genocide. And just next to this, in front of Tiergarten, is the city&#8217;s most symbolic landmark: the Brandenburg gate. Just a few steps away we find the imposing Reichstag (the German parliament), with its distinctive glass dome, designed by the prestigious British architect Norman Foster to symbolise transparency. It is free to visit, you just have to register in advance.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_28903\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28903\" class=\"wp-image-28903 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo-700x379.jpg\" alt=\"Brandenburg Gate.\" width=\"700\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo-700x379.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo-250x135.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo-768x416.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo-120x65.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.riu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/puerta-de-brandenburgo.jpg 803w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-28903\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Brandenburg Gate.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Following the path marked by the River Spree we arrive at Museum Island, a location that brings together five well-known museums, including the Pergamonmuseum of history, where you can see examples of Babylonian culture, and the Alte Nationalgalerie, with its art exhibitions.
