Berlin was a great city to go and visit for a few days. We spent 5 days walking around our area (eastern part of the city). The young people are so eclectic, trying so hard to express themselves and be unique, but it brought a great atmosphere to life there. The highlight for the trip..... tachles and bar 25 (it's a tie)
Tachles

Tachles is a completely great place to go in Berlin. It's an old building converted by artists to be studio and show space. The building isn't just about artists' space, it also hosts 3 different bars and a small cinema. We went there two days in a row exploring different artist's studios and drinking cheap beer. They serve up some good ones in the buildings courtyard. (:
Bar 25

I actually went to my first circus show in my life(if it counts as a legit circus)!! This bar was amazing, people were enjoying the outside air along the river while in different areas other things were going on; dance floor with great great music playing, old school photobooth, crazy belly dancer/mesmerizing vocalist, circus show, fresh pizza, party bar rockin the casbah, fire pit, swings, disco ball.... it was all amazing.
