My trip to Germany Berlin part 1

in #travel5 years ago (edited)

Good day dear mates! @travoved is here!

As I promised in my previous post today I’ll tell you about the places which I visited in Berlin during first days of my trip to Germany.

And the first place where my acquaintance with the city began is the airport Shonefeld. It's a small airport as you can see from photos bellow, located not far from Berlin.
Communicating with people during the trip, I heard different opinions about this place, but whatever one may say, it became for me the gateway to the city and the country.

When I got my luggage and passed passport control, I got by bus to the city where I first settled in the 'Motel one' hotel. This hotel is located near Berlin central railway terminal.

When I arrived, the hotel was nearing the end of repairs. But overall, it didn’t overshadow my stay there. My room was quite comfortable and breakfasts were good enough.

As so as I arrived at the second half of the day I had enough free time and decided to walk around the city. And first place where I went was the Alexanderplatz station, which is located not far from main Berlin railway terminal. To get there I used Sbahn train.

Getting off the train I immediately headed to Berliner Fernsehturm.

Fortunately that day there were no long queue, and I was quickly able to get to the observation deck. From TV tower I went to St.Mary’s church.

When I came to my hotel I decide to take a dinner at Schnitzelei café. But about this place I’ll tell you later.

But about Hamburg I’ll tell you briefly in my next post!

See you soon!
Sincerely yours @travoved!

Great report from Berlin, you saw some of the main sights there. I remember underneath the Fernsehtower, there was a tourist shop that does excellent tours and pub crawls where you can meet others and try Absynth!

Ohh yes I remember that shop. But as so my trip was planned before we could to visit some not common tourist spots. About Absinthe is a kind tricky drink in my case I try to be more careful with it.

The guys running the shop were really cool when I was living in Berlin, we had good times there. You are right about Absynthe, it is not for everyones taste!

After visiting Berlin and Germany itself I understood that like it and ready to visit it again when I'll have such possibility! And in next time I'd like to do it with all my family.

My aunt lives in Berlin and she says it is a lovely place. I wish I could travel there one of these days

I think it'll be great if you visit this city and if you see it's beauty by yourself!
