Description
Begin at Alexanderplatz, once the beating heart of East Berlin. Here, under the glow of the giant TV Tower, the city’s Cold War ghosts still whisper through the crowds and carousels. Just a few decades ago, this square was the face of socialism — today, it’s the lively meeting point of a unified city, full of music, laughter, and the scent of cinnamon.
From there, stroll towards the Humboldt Forum, where Prussian kings once ruled and empires dreamed of glory. The Forum, rebuilt on the foundations of the old royal palace, stands as a symbol of Berlin’s endless cycle of destruction and rebirth. Around it, the Christmas market feels like a magical contradiction — centuries of power and politics wrapped in fairy lights and the smell of roasted chestnuts.
Finally, arrive at Gendarmenmarkt — arguably the most elegant square in Berlin. Between the twin cathedrals and the grand concert hall, history and harmony meet under strings of golden lights. It’s a place where 18th-century grace meets Berlin’s famously imperfect charm. Here enjoy the festive magic that even the coldest wind can’t steal.
