People are always asking me what to do in Berlin, and even if I've posted a hundred million times on my favorite places, restaurants and things to do in Berlin, there's always more to say. Whether you think Berlin is Europe's most hip city or not, there's no denying the city's special place in the world today. Berlin Is not Described as "poor buy sexy" without reason. Though it's the political center of Germany, Berlin is arguably the cultural hub of the country-and increasingly of the European continent. With major Businesses moving to town and people flocking to the city from around the world, Berlin is one of the most unique and interesting places in Europe today.
