Now that Scoot is flying low-cost and direct to the German capital, it’s time to get your butt over to Berlin, stat. We give you 8 reasons Berlin is so cool, it hurts.
You know how they say life is unfair ’cos some people just seem to have it all? Well, Berlin is unfair, ’cos it has it all. It’s a city that gives every ilk of tourist what they want. History buff? Berlin’s got history, in spades. From the time of the 18th Century Prussian Kings to the Nazis and the devastation of the First World War, from the rise and then the storied and triumphant fall of the Berlin Wall, the history is rich, multi-layered, and deliciously unique. For arts and culture aficionados, a popular saying is that there are more museums here than there are rainy days. From the mustsee Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe to the classics at Museum Island, and the bizarre Currywurst Museum or the popular Spy Museum (guess there were a lot of spies around here), it’s a treasure trove of culture on display. A big foodie? You’d be surprised that beyond the sausages and beer, Berlin is a gastronomic melting pot with authentic eats from a smorgasbord of different cultures (Turkish, Japanese, Vegan, Fusion — you name it), complete with a thriving street food scene which jostles for attention with Michelin-star restos.
