Tiergarten

A wonderful park in Berlin that should not be missed and I recommend cycling across it as it's very large (the largest in the city) and thus it's easier to get an overall idea. It's curious how at the weekend the Tiergarten is full of families spending the day and even having barbecues! The atmosphere is very special and the style is so characteristic of Berliners parks. So, you get the feeling that you are crossing one of those forests from Germanic legends yet it's two minutes from the Brandenburg Gate! Within the park you can't miss the World Cultural House (the famous "pregnant oyster") and

An immense, quiet park extending from the Brandenburg Gate to the Memorial Church. The Tier Garden is the green heart of Berlin and inside is the Berlin Zoo, which is home to animals from around the world. A good place for a stroll or a picnic on sunny days.
