Overall

Berlin is a wonderful, vibrant and interesting city. Due to its recent past, its a fantastic mix of beautiful old baroque style buildings, and intriguing modern designs. There is loads to see and do, with an abundance of parks and woods to stroll through and escape the bustle of this busy city. Generally a very clean place, the only down side is the amount of graffiti, and amazingly for German organisation, dog mess on pavements here and there. But apart from that Berlin is almost a breath of fresh air in terms of "city break" holidays. We have been twice in a year and a half, and are due to go back again in the new year to see other bits we missed before. A must visit city. And yes, you can even go to the beach in Berlin. Strange, but true. You can even join in the sand castle building competitions!

Great for: History/Culture, Nightlife, Budget Travel
