    Modern architecture in Mitte

    Posted by Schinkel 8 September 2008

    In the area around Mulackstrasse you'll find a lot of good new architecture. Not really large houses, and sometimes even solutions for just one family - but only ten minutes away from Alexanderplatz.

    There is for example the white Case Study House 08 by HSH architects on the corner with Gormannstrasse. Another interesting building is the townhouse by plus4930 architects (Mulackstr. 16). The houses in this district are not as high as in the rest of the city and even the roads are smaller. That's why the district has a very typical flair. Mulackstrasse is not far away from Hackescher Markt and you'll find a lot of bars and shopping opportunities here.

    Mulackstrasse, Spandauer Vorstadt. U-Bahn Weinmeister Str.; S-Bahn Alexanderplatz

    Kopenick

    Posted by goodwinmacc 6 August 2008

    This is a lakeside suburb in Eastern Berlin which still retains a village atmosphere. It's a great centre from which to explore the less familiar lakes and woods that were once the main recreational area for the 'capital of the DDR'. As in West Berlin, you can take boat trips, or walk up to the Muggelberg, the highest point in Greater Berlin. The town itself escaped much of the world war two bombing, and is full of restored 18th century houses and plenty of places to eat and drink. Schloss Kopenick, on its island, has also recently been restored properly, and now contains a Museum of Applied Art.

    Kopenick S-bahn station is a short walk from the town centre, and is a 20-minute journey from central Berlin.

    The Bus 100

    Posted by Stephanie18 19 January 2007

    Travel the length of this bus's route. It's a cheap fare and passes through most of the tourist sights.

    The KaDaWe chocolate department is also WELL worth a visit.

    The bus starts at the Zoo station and terminates at the Alexanderplatz
