Prenzlauerberg. Berlin meine Lieb (II)

So today I'm talking about Prenzlauerberg, the most artsy and bohemian area in Berlin.

When I visited the city I stayed at a campus in Prenzlauerberg and I honestly think that it couldn't have been better located. It is just 10 minutes by underground from Alexanderplatz, the main square in town, and it's got plenty of places to see and things to do.

Prenzlauerberg is famous for its bars, pubs and cafes. It's a popular area for nightlife, but it's interesting by day as well. It's full of vintage shops where you can find from secondhand records and books, to clothes and accessories from the past decades.

It is a place where young artists meet and work, full of life and history.

There's a huge park where bohemians play music by night and young people meet to party, that's Mauerpark. It is called like that because inside it we c

an find a piece of the famous Berlin Wall, all decorated with graffiti and paintings. If you visit Berlin, don't miss it!

Hackeschermarkt. Berlin meine Lieb (I)

Last summer I was in Berlin, I could say those were two of the best weeks in my whole life. I met great people, I improved my German and of course I got to know the city, which I found incredible. It's such a cosmopolitan place full of art and culture and amazing places.

One of the places I visited and liked the most was Hackeschermarkt. It was the old jew neighbourhood, so before the war it used to be an area full of industry and money. Some of the historical buildings are still there and have been improved, in fact one of

them is now a famous place for shopping and restaurants. It used to be a factory of textile goods before the war, and it still keeps its colorful decorations.

Hackeschermarkt has recently become one of the It areas in Berlin, it's full of designer shops and trendy restaurants and cafes where you can find international and exotic food and drinks.

By night it's a well-known place for going out too, there is plenty of bars and pubs around. A funny fact about the area is that when shops close, the streets suddenly become full of prostitutes and girls of the night.

I highly recomend visiting Hackeschermarkt either by day or by night, it's my personal number one choice for going out in Berlin.

Here's a view of one of the famous buildings of Hackeschermarkt, it is fu

ll of shops and cafes such as Starbucks Coffee.
