Berlin Travel Guide: Flights & Hotels
Germany · BER
Berlin blends a heavy 20th-century history — the Wall, Checkpoint Charlie, the Reichstag — with one of Europe's most active contemporary art and nightlife scenes. It's a sprawling, green city best explored district by district rather than rushed in a day or two.
May through September brings the best weather for the city's parks and open-air markets, while winter museum-hopping is a solid off-season alternative. Public transport (U-Bahn and S-Bahn) is extensive, so you don't need to stay near any single landmark.
