A place where world-class museums and concert halls give way to basement clubs and grungy late night/early morning bars, where Neo-Renaissance beauties clash with brutalist monoliths, and a buzzing atmosphere intertwines with a history etched into the very streets.

Whether you spend your time hopping from achingly cool bar to cosy, old-worldy pub, or exploring the starkly harrowing memorials and museums before hunting down one of the thousands of incredible restaurants, if you’re one for culture, look no further than Berlin.

Combine all this with a population that is hugely warm and friendly and full of good, positive energy that seeps from the buzzing bars that stay open all night, and there’s a good chance that you’ll be so swept up by Berlin that you’ll never want to leave.
