Berlin

What to See/Do:
• This is a big city, so I’d recommend taking some sort of bus tour to see everything. Here are a few of the places our tour took us to:
o Brandenburg Gate
o Berlin Wall
o Checkpoint Charlie
o Parliament building. I believe this is called the Reichstag. Climb up the dome on top (best time to go is around dinner time because the line is shorter then).
o Holocaust Memorial
o Hitler’s Bunker
o Hotel Adlon: Across from the Brandenburg Gate. It’s where Michael Jackson hung his kids out the window
o Beautiful zoo and aquarium
• Nudist Park!
• Bike Tour
• There’s a giant open air flea market that has tons of great finds
• Beer gardens

Nightlife:
• Pub Crawl: They start between 8 and 9pm…one of my favorite nights of my entire semester! Look for pamphlets at the place you’re staying for more detailed info.
