- Joanne MoussaFebruary 21, 2018Great place for shopping, you can find a big mall (Galeria Kaufhof), Primark, Flying Tiger and so many more international stores. This is a good place for german fast food, like pretzels or currywurst
Jag FirerwalkerAugust 10, 2014If you are in Berlin and don't pass by here, you haven't been to Berlin. You have to be here eating a Bratwurst from one if the Bellygrill guys (which is the official naming) and look at the punks
This to me is pretty much the center of Berlin. Everything comes together here but for good nightlife you definitely need to go elsewhere. Try the panorama platform on and base jumping off the ParkInn
Barbara ReisJanuary 17, 2015Great place to wander around, always crowded, with a good amount of shops and options to eat. Buskers gather around here, so expect hearing music from all around the world.
Alper ÇuğunJanuary 4, 2015This is like Times Square in NYC. If you live in Berlin you will do everything in your power not to come here.
The city center, or the east part center. A big square with a lot of markts during the year. Just not so far you can see the TV Tower. Nice place to spend time or enjoying base-flying from Park inn.
MuratJune 8, 2022A very big square with a lot of people just hanging out. Just next to a mall, train station and Ubis available. Many street performancing. Watch out bikes and pickpockets.,Perfect for people watching.
Mohamed HishamAugust 19, 2016The most famous square in Berlin! A lot of shopping and eating alternatives, the souvenirs shop near the tv tower is kind of cheaper than the rest.
Best Western Central EuropeOctober 24, 2013"Alex" is probably Berlin´s most famous square. Don´t miss to have a look at the world clock. For amazing views, take the elevator to the top of the TV Tower.
Louise HApril 14, 2012Nice and central place to start your holiday in Berlin: Take your picture of the world clock, the U-Bahn station and the tv tower - and then hurry away so you can explore more important areas!- JMay 13, 2014"When do you want to explore the most beautiful places in the city, keep looking up!" This is the main rule for Prague. And maybe also for Berlin..
Monkey OliverOctober 8, 2014The most crowded place in the whole city should I guess? Have couple hours in berlin to waste - go there and you will find all types of entertainment and ways to spend 1,2,3 or even more hours! :)
Amit GaharwarMarch 13, 2019Throbbing heart of Berlin. Food, shops, trains, trams, buses and people. You can possibly sit in one restaurants and enjoy the people and city go by.
Yeah, it's an ugly square but you can get everything here. Great food hall at the Galleria Kaufhof. Also you can get good Currywurst in the station.
Francisco CanoAugust 13, 2014Cool place to hang out and explore when you're in the city. Very laid back atmosphere with lots of young people. Nice stores and restaurants here too.
Cathrine JohansenSeptember 4, 2017City center of Berlin. Tv Tower, Alexa Shopping center and Galleria Kaufhof is located here. Lots of tourists.
Nice place where you can find everything (places to eat, shops, info and transport)
Domnule ObzenJuly 9, 2015This plaza makes me happy! There's just so much going on there. People, music, stores... And the big tower always watching for you.
Emel BayraktarSeptember 27, 2015It is like the center of Berlin. Many shops and Cafés/restaurants around. It is very crowded and dynamic.
Geographically speaking Alexanderplatz is the heart of Berlin! And it's also the busiest station of Berlin.
LukasMay 12, 2017This place is a good start for a walk through Berlin. Also due it's good public transfer connection this place is great to meet up someone.
Onur KorayNovember 26, 2015If you want to shop, this is one of the top places for it. When you're done, stop around for some currywurst and beer.
Ania MajłowskaDecember 7, 2014Lots of shop around and nice places to get something to eat! Easy access to all attractions that Berlin has to offer!
Philips at IFA 2013August 29, 2013This central square is a transport hub, famous for the Fernsehturm. A good central landmark if you’re visiting IFA for the first time in 2013.
Besher SouedJuly 23, 2015This is one of berlin's biggest squares. It has many shops and malls. Musicians and entertainers are seen here freuquently.
KatrinaNovember 19, 2014Huge plaza where ppl take the train or tram or transfer. Meeting point. It's a busy "crossroad". Lots of shops & restaurants.
- Mind your stuff, pick pockets on the loose. Occasional riots here. Don't come here alone after dark. And put your empty Primark bags in the bins, for **** sake!
Must visit for tourists. Always busy during day time, but nice to watch street artists. Wish they hadn't planted Primark there though..
Phat BuoyOctober 21, 2014This is the stop for the TV Tower. You can get plenty of connections to the different underground lines here.
Io As SoonOctober 1, 2018One of the most famous place of Berlin to make shopping and have a drink. Great to see
1. Do not expect any free WC here.2. Street performance is great, don't be shy to applause for the artists.3. Be aware of pocket thief.
OgneApril 27, 2013Great and modern main square, dominant TV tower, modern buildings, nice clock with different times from different countries
Ivan YamshchikovJuly 28, 2013in gallery, right near the s-bahn station there is a very nice bubble-tea.
Not the nicest place in Berlin, but good if you’re looking for a Starbucks, Saturn, TK Maxx or Primark. If you need a hotel here, I’d recommend Hotel Lux Eleven (Rosa Luxemburgstrasse), or Motel One.
Vitaly ImSeptember 21, 2014It is not only great view, it is also great places for freshmen to buy all important stuff!
Aline BrandãoOctober 16, 2015Everything happens at Alexanderplatz. A big public transport hub - you're probably going to pass by here on your way to somewhere else anyway, so don't miss it.
You can sit at the fountain and watch the mix of tourists and berlin people all day long.- The city center, or the east part center. A big square with a lot of markts during the year. Just not so far you can see the TV Tower.
Jackson TsaiMay 4, 2015One of the busiest tram connecting station with lots of shopping department store near by.
Maximilian HJanuary 3, 2015The ice-skating area in winter is very small! But still a nice place to go to have a winter feeling
Guido KnookNovember 8, 2015Probably the most boring overrated square in Berlin. Quickly get into the u-bahn again if you fin yourself here and for example take the u8 to rozenthaler platz.
There's always something to see here. The best place to watch all different kinds of people.
