What to visit in Berlin?

[jorismo]

This saturday me and my girlfriend go on a 4 day trip to Berlin, Germany. I already bought a city guide and stuff. But I just wanted to know if any of you guys perhaps knows a cool bar, restaurant or club or anything that you think is really worth taking a visit. Perhaps some specials car dealers or something. Anything is good.

Two keywords. Meilenwerk and Charlottenburg.

Club Tresor and the Potsdammer Platz

unter den linden strasse

buggati showroom

friedrichstraße, if you want to see the coolest VAG showroom which features the Veyron and some nice vdub's, bit further down the road is the audi showroom, also worthwhile. You will certainly be going to the Reichstag I hope (do it when the sun goes down) => one of the best views ever.
food and beer is ridiculously cheap where the students are (can't remember where that was )

That's added to the list!

Thanks for that. I heard about this place but nobody was able to give me an exact location.

By the way. If you want to climb to the top of the Reichstag, go early. Very early. Around coffee time there are allready two hour or longer lines of people waiting. Atleast in the summer, when I was there.

If you are interested in cars:

corner Friedrichstraße / Unter den Linden: Volkswagen/Audi/Seat/Skoda/Bentley/Bugatti (maybe Lamborghini, don't know if they are in there finally)

if you change to the other side of the "Unter den Linden" street and walk on the "Friedrichstraße" few minutes you will reach an place called "Opel Erlebniswelt" where Opel is showing some important cars from their history and the new ones.

Go back to "Unter den Linden" and head to the right (direction: Brandenburger Tor) and you will reach "Peugeot Avenue" on the right side, where Peugeot is showing Concept cars and cars of their history.



And then there is the "Meilenwerk" (www.meilenwerk.de), a building full of classic-car-dealers, private owned classic and exotic cars (sometimes two Ferrari Enzo there) and other cool stuff. It is located in the "Wiebestraße", which is some kilometers north-west from the "Siegessäule", as you will see in this picture:


The Siegessäule is on the street, which ends on the westside of the Brandenburger Tor (on the eastside of the Tor that street is "Unter den Linden")


If you are also interested in old planes, boats and other technical stuff don't miss the "Technikmuseum" (Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin)

Unter den Linden, the East Side Gallery, Potsdamer Platz, then spend the rest of the time in Munich, at the Hofbrauhaus

trust me, it's heaven on earth this time of year.

Isn't there a store that sells clothes by the kilo?

Yeah I believe I've read something about that too in my city guide. Wasn't really planning to visit that because that means my girlfriend will return with a 50 kilogram bag...
