Top six places to fall in love with Berlin at first time

Berlin is the city where German history was written. Here you will find the Reichstag, which is the symbol of democracy, the famous Brandenburg Gate and the Berlin Wall, which played an important role not only in the history of Germany, but also in the history of Europe. And what magnificent views open from the Berliner Fernsehturm!

Today, Travellizy is going to tell you about the top 6 places that are worth visiting, if you are in Berlin for the first time, so let's go.

1. Take a photo against the background of the Brandenburg Gate

No traveller would leave without a picture like that! It is not in vain that they are considered to be one of the most important installation sights in Berlin, and it is from here that many people begin their acquaintance with the German capital.

2. Visit the glass dome of the Reichstag

The Reichstag building and its famous glass dome are located in the heart of Berlin's government district.

Some dream of visiting one of the most important historical buildings, where the parliament makes important political decisions, while others are attracted by the stunning view of the city and the opportunity to visit inside the architectural miracle - the glass dome of the Reichstag. The entrance is free of charge, but pre-registration on the official website is mandatory!

3. Take a walk along the Berlin Wall

The history of the Berlin Wall is impressive, it is still hard to imagine how this wall divided a large city and entire families with their loved ones. Tourists come to look at its remains and take pictures with the most famous fragment of the Berlin Wall - a graffiti with Brezhnev and Honecker kissing. Be prepared to wait in a queue, as crowds of tourists usually gather near this place. By the way, on November 9, 2019, Berlin celebrates 30 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, and there will be many events in this city. So if you are interested in history, then it's time to book tickets.

4. See the panorama of the city from the Berlin TV Tower

Would you like to see a unique 360-degree panorama of the city? Then climb to Berlin's tallest building, the Fernsehturm TV Tower, which is 368 meters tall. The standard ticket costs €16.50, for children from 4 to 14 years old, it is €9.50 and for children under 4 years old, the entrance is free of charge. Students receive a 20% discount, if they have a document.

If you buy a Fast Track Ticket (from €21.50), you don't have to wait in a queue, and you can enjoy a stunning view with a drink at the Bar 203 or at a table in the Sphere Restaurant (an order is paid separately). Every first Sunday of the month from 09:00 to 11:30, there is a special offer for breakfast in the restaurant (from €41.50, buffet breakfast is included in the price), if you manage to find a free date, we recommend to book a table near the window.

5. Visit one of the museums in Berlin

If you are a true fan of museums, go to Museum Islan, a huge architectural ensemble, that includes five museums: the Old and New Museum, the Bode Museum, the Pergamon Muse-um and the Old National Gallery. The Museum Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the collections in museums go back over 6,000 years of art and culture history.

6. Visit the Berlin Cathedral

Also on the island, there is another attraction - the Berlin Cathedral. Having paid an entrance fee of € 7, you can visit all its parts, including the museum, chapels, crypt of the Hohenzollern dynasty, and climb to the observation deck under the dome.

A family ticket for one adult and three children under 18 also costs €7, and for €4, you can take an audio guide in Russian, English, German, French, Spanish and Polish.

Concerts are held in the cathedral, because here is the largest organ in the whole Germany. And right in front of the cathedral, you can relax in a park called Lustgarten, which is one of the favourite places not only for tourists but also for local residents.

During the walk, you’ll be hungry for sure, and this is the best time to get to know another at-traction of Berlin - street food. German sausages called brother-wurst, doner-kebab, falafel, currywurst sausages and burgers with various fillings will blow your taste buds. Are you ready for it?

Berlin will certainly not leave you hungry, and Travellizy will not leave you without profitable flights, so book your new trip with us and go towards German adventures!
