Day 3- Tiergarten park, hanging out at city festivals for Labor Day
Hostel
East 7 Berlin Hostel
Location is a bit far from city center but it was nice to be in a quieter area of town
Lots of good restaurants nearby
Eats
Babel- near hostel (awesome middle eastern food) it is kind of a fast, dive place, not good for a long, sit-down meal
Antipodes- awesome brunch with really simple menu but really cute and delicious!
Yam Yam- Asian dinner place with good Bimbimbop
Factory girl- good scrambled egg bowls for brunch
I have not been but other recommended restaurants: transit, napoljonska, wurst 🙂 (a sausage stand)
For the most part, food is very reasonable priced in Berlin
To See
Checkpoint Charlie
East side gallery
Holocaust memorial
Brandenburg tor
To Do
Visit Olympic stadium (cool if you are interested, if not, not necessary)
Walk through tiergarten park if it is a nice day (great place for a picnic)
Reichstag Dome-Bundestag (parliament building)- need to book ahead of time online!! Because to buy tickets while you’re there could mean 2 hour lines
Jewish Museum
Transportation
The S-bahn and U-bahn will become your best friends! Get a map and take them everywhere (Berlin has an amazing public transit system!!)- this is also how I got from the airport to my hostel
I personally never bought a ticket and never got caught (I rode it several times a day all 3 days I was there)- but don’t blame me if you get caught!
