]]> Berlin, Germany, will amaze you with its food offerings. From fancy restaurants to food courts with affordable food, the city is a place that will feed you well regardless of what your taste buds prefer and how deep your pockets are.

However, if you ask us, the best way not to be hungry in Berlin is by eating street food. And if you don’t know what to get, here are some suggestions. 

Currywurst

Currywurst is a traditional German fast food item that consists of bits-chopped bratwurst topped with curry ketchup and served with a side of fries. It’s one of the most common ways for Berlinians to enjoy their sausages, and you should join in.

Döner Kebab

They often say that Berlin Döner Kebabs are among the best in the world. And once you try a few of them, you will be inclined to confirm. Thin layers of meat with fresh veggies and signature sauce packed between pita bread are something you won’t be able to get enough of. 

Falafel

If you prefer meat-free street food options, go for falafel. Like Döner Kebabs, Berlin falafels are among the best in the world. You will be able to find versions and variations from different regions, including Sudan, Egypt, and Israel.

Pretzels

Pretzel stalls can be found on almost every corner of Berlin. They are a great choice if you are not too hungry and just want a quick bite. Also, you will never get bored of them thanks to the different varieties they come in.

]]> If you love chocolate, you probably have a very particular type of chocolate you like and a few particular things you like to combine with chocolate. If that’s you, the Ritter-Sport store is a must when you visit Berlin, Germany. At the famous chocolate brand’s flagship store, you can make your own chocolate bar or even try a chocolate workshop!

The Store

You’ve probably seen the many different flavors of Ritter-Sport available at your local candy aisle. They make a huge variety of chocolates with everything from nuts to fruits to creme filling. At the store in downtown Berlin, you can sample a wide selection thanks to their bulk offerings of mini-chocolates. You can also take a photo with their iconic chocolate tower!

Make Your Own

If the mini-chocolates or what the store has to offer isn’t quite what you’re looking for, there’s no need to worry. You can simply make your own chocolate bar! The store has counters where workers will make chocolate bars fresh for you right before your eyes, and you can tell them exactly which chocolate and which add-ins you’d like. The whole process takes a very short time, and at the end, you’ll have a custom Ritter-Sport chocolate bar in a special package just for you!

]]> People often say that Berlin, Germany, always finds a way to surprise you. No matter how many times you visit or how much you decide to stick around, there’s always something new to see or do—there are tons of hidden gems. You don’t want to miss these three.

Classic-Remise Berlin

The easiest way to describe Classic-Remise would be to call it a classic car museum. But it is much more than that. Aside from classic cars, this place, which is located in the old tram depot, houses a working garage shop, dealers, spare parts, car-themed merchandise, car models, and much more. There is even a restaurant where you can grab a bite to eat when you get tired from exploring.

Volkspark Friedrichshain

Seeing there are bigger and more famous parks in Berlin, tourists often overlook the Volkspark Friedrichshain. This charming park will win you over with its meticulously landscaped green spaces, points of interest like fountains and monuments, and amenities like playgrounds and sports complexes.

Neukölln District

In the past, Neukölln was considered one of Berlin’s poorer districts. Nowadays, it is probably the coolest one. The district is known for its international vibe, thanks to many foreigners and expats living here. It is full of art galleries, small museums, charming cafes, vintage shops, street art, and much more.

]]> Berlin is Germany’s capital located smack-dab in the middle of the country. A complex history of division and reunification has left Berlin with no shortage of sites to see, it’s also known for its art scene and for being a hub of vegan cuisine. Should you find yourself in Berlin for only a limited time, here are our suggestions for the best ways to spend it:

The Reichstag Dome

This government building featuring some truly unique architecture has a rooftop terrace that offers stunning views of the city. It does require a reservation in advance, though, so if this is something that you’re interested in, be sure to plan ahead.

Markthalle Neun

This indoor food hall is the perfect place to head for lunch after a morning of site seeing. Kiosks offer prepared food of all kinds, so everyone is sure to find something they’ll enjoy. They also have a small market so you can take specialty products home with you.

KaDeWe

If shopping is your thing, KaDeWe is the place for you. This luxury department store is over 100 years old, the building is stunning, and happens to be the second-largest store of its kind in Europe. Pop up to the 6th floor for tons of dining options.

]]> If you love chocolate, you probably have a very particular type of chocolate you like and a few particular things you like to combine with chocolate. If that’s you, the Ritter-Sport store is a must when you visit Berlin, Germany. At the famous chocolate brand’s flagship store, you can make your own chocolate bar or even try a chocolate workshop!

The Store

You’ve probably seen the many different flavors of Ritter-Sport available at your local candy aisle. They make a huge variety of chocolates with everything from nuts to fruits to creme filling. At the store in downtown Berlin, you can sample a wide selection thanks to their bulk offerings of mini-chocolates. You can also take a photo with their iconic chocolate tower!

Make Your Own

If the mini-chocolates or what the store has to offer isn’t quite what you’re looking for, there’s no need to worry. You can simply make your own chocolate bar! The store has counters where workers will make chocolate bars fresh for you right before your eyes, and you can tell them exactly which chocolate and which add-ins you’d like. The whole process takes a very short time, and at the end, you’ll have a custom Ritter-Sport chocolate bar in a special package just for you!

]]> People often say that Berlin, Germany, always finds a way to surprise you. No matter how many times you visit or how much you decide to stick around, there’s always something new to see or do—there are tons of hidden gems. You don’t want to miss these three.

Classic-Remise Berlin

The easiest way to describe Classic-Remise would be to call it a classic car museum. But it is much more than that. Aside from classic cars, this place, which is located in the old tram depot, houses a working garage shop, dealers, spare parts, car-themed merchandise, car models, and much more. There is even a restaurant where you can grab a bite to eat when you get tired from exploring.

Volkspark Friedrichshain

Seeing there are bigger and more famous parks in Berlin, tourists often overlook the Volkspark Friedrichshain. This charming park will win you over with its meticulously landscaped green spaces, points of interest like fountains and monuments, and amenities like playgrounds and sports complexes.

Neukölln District

In the past, Neukölln was considered one of Berlin’s poorer districts. Nowadays, it is probably the coolest one. The district is known for its international vibe, thanks to many foreigners and expats living here. It is full of art galleries, small museums, charming cafes, vintage shops, street art, and much more.

]]> Traveling to Berlin, the capital city of Germany, can be a bit pricey but that shouldn’t stop you from visiting this charming and unique destination. If you’re traveling on a budget and want to save some money on your trip, here are a few fun things that you can do in Berlin without spending a cent.

East Side Gallery

This 4,318-feet long remnant of the Berlin Wall is now the largest open-air gallery in the world and one of the most iconic landmarks in Berlin. Here you can see more than 100 murals painted by artists from all over the world, and needless to say that enjoying this incredible artwork is completely free.

Visit  Museums For Free

The capital of Germany is rich with culture and history and therefore visiting at least some of the staggering 175 museums is a must for tourists. Entry fees for museums can be a little steep but there are a few that you can visit for free, such as Anti-War Museum and the German-Russian Museum. Also, make sure to do a little research because a lot of museums in Berlin offer free entry once a week or once a month.

Visit Flea Markets

Reserve one Sunday morning for strolling through some of the iconic Berlin flea markets where you can find cheap and unique items, talk with locals and enrich your travel experience.

]]> Berlin is Germany’s capital located smack-dab in the middle of the country. A complex history of division and reunification has left Berlin with no shortage of sites to see, it’s also known for its art scene and for being a hub of vegan cuisine. Should you find yourself in Berlin for only a limited time, here are our suggestions for the best ways to spend it:

The Reichstag Dome

This government building featuring some truly unique architecture has a rooftop terrace that offers stunning views of the city. It does require a reservation in advance, though, so if this is something that you’re interested in, be sure to plan ahead.

Markthalle Neun

This indoor food hall is the perfect place to head for lunch after a morning of site seeing. Kiosks offer prepared food of all kinds, so everyone is sure to find something they’ll enjoy. They also have a small market so you can take specialty products home with you.

KaDeWe

If shopping is your thing, KaDeWe is the place for you. This luxury department store is over 100 years old, the building is stunning, and happens to be the second-largest store of its kind in Europe. Pop up to the 6th floor for tons of dining options.
