EXBERLINER Berlin in English
by LeahRoisin
Everybody knows that Berlin is the place to be for nightlife, music, art and general good times but what help is that when you don't know your Kreuzberg from your Kartoffel. Locals recommened I should read Berlin listing magazines such as tip and zitty which I'm sure are great- but not if the only German phrase you know is 'Sprechen Sie Englisch?' So it was a stroke of luck when I spotted the monthly English-language magazine EXBERLINER in my local newsagent. EXBERLINER is a great magazine for any English-speaking visitor to Berlin. The articles are informative and the listings are varied and up to date, all that for only 2 euros-well you can't really go wrong! www.exberliner.com I'm still in Berlin so I'm not feeling sentimental yet, but i'm sure when i'm back in 'Old Blighty' I'll have my subscription of EXBERLINER sent over so i'm still in the know of whats happening in Europes best capital city.

Get yourself a street map and a subway map. Then you'll be fine!!! Without it Berlin can get a bit confusing (With my map, too, it still has the wall on is and all streets in the east have their old names... argh! Maybe it's time for a new one!?). If you are unlucky you will walk towards the end of the world ;-)
Oh and, after having smoked the funny stuff (No this is not my Amsterdam page!) you shouldn't go anywhere near remaining bits of wall. I heard of somebody who was 100% sure that they put up the wall again one night!!!!
Music in the church
by matcrazy1
This old, brick evangelic church was called Passions-Kirche. It was located within a very "trendy" area in district of Kreuzberg at the corner of Marheinekeplatz and Schleiermannstraße. It was quite interesting example of old, brick architecture.
As I noticed on advertisements inside the church there were a number of churches in Berlin which hosted organ concerts, musicals, choirs concerts including just Passions Kirche and other churches like Heilige Kreuz Kirche, St Thomas Kirche, Gethsemane Kirche in the Prenzlauer Berg district and St George's Anglican Church.
A dozen opportunities in just one spot
by tauroctonia about Kulturbrauerei
All in one! If you don't really know what to do and how to spend your weekend in Berlin (or even weekdays), just go to Kulturbrauerei in Prenzlauer Berg. There are many locations: clubs, bars, restaurants, cinema for parties, concerts etc. All kinds of music. Surely, you'll find something suitable.
Check out the cosy "Alte Kantine" on Fridays (rock music) or Saturdays (all times favorites).
