    Historical district with lots of food options. To be honest 1 of the best area for seated lunch or dinner in Berlin, with lots of cuisine variety.

    The historic district in Berlin. Check for restaurants, souvenirs and living history. St. Nicholas Church is a must. Oldest building in town!

    In general I am not too fuzzed about history but when I have done a guided tour through the area and I have to admit there are a few tempting old German bars that I will definitely return to. 😊

    This is where it all started. Sit Down for a beer or two and relax your life thinking about the time Berlin was just a tiny village around this square.

    A perfect place to have a cuppa in the evening sun by the river Spree, as if you travelled back in time

    Right in the middle of Alexanderplatz, Berlin is this quiet corner which looks completely different, like a small town hidden behind big buildings.

    The best part about this area is how small and avoidable it is. I've lived here for years and this is the first time I ended up here.

    It's a lovely place in Alexanderplatz. You should check the restaurants. They have reaaonable prices & offer traditional tastes.

    You can't leave Berlin without visiting its picturesque old city which is so close to the center.

    Stroll the cobbled streets of Berlin´s old town. Enjoy dinner at one of the many restaurants offering traditional Berlin cuisine.

    Apart from the band of the bears, it was an okay spot in Berlin.

    Small quarters in the east side. The original place where Berlin was born.

    Stroll through cobblestone streets in the oldest part of Berlin. Rest on a terrace by the Spree with a tall cold Pils.

    Gerade in der kalten Jahreszeit ist die Kaffeestube im Nikolaiviertel ein guter Zwischenstopp für Kaffee und Kuchen. Echt Berlinerisch.

    Passeie pelo bairro Nikolai, um engraçado pastiche de arquitetura barroca e neoclássica, com filas de casas de empena, calçadas, lojas pitorescas e restaurantes tradicionais.

    Реконструированный средневековый район Берлина. Тут уютно и как то не по берлински;)

    Alexanderplatza çok yakın Berlin'in eski bir bölümü. Heryer Arnavut kaldırım taşları ile yapılmış. Vaktiniz varsa yürüyüş için ve öğle yemeğine Alman mutfağı için gelebilirsiniz

    Die Architektur und das alte Berlin werden hier repräsentiert, leider nicht so lebendig, wie es sein könnte. Es wirkt etwas steif.
