Anyone got any recommendations of places to visit in Berlin?

:lol: Hell no, I think any Germans reading this will jump to take the counter-piss out of NL :-).

This wasn't meant to be a thread where Dutch people could take the piss out of the Germans! :-P  

"piss out of the Germans" :-? :-? :-?

I knew that (or well, I guessed that), but I wasn't taking the piss out of the Germans... I couldn't see where exactly we did such.

Oh, I thought you were stereotyping them.
Sauerkraut and such....

Now would be a good time to play De Heideroosjes - Wurst und Käse :-).

Ich trink ein Bier mit dir,
du hast nichts falsch gemacht
Zusammen gegen Neo-Nazis,
hatte ich mir gedacht

I understand the first line with no help. 'I drink a beer with you'. But I used a translator for the next part, and it gave the rather awkward translation:

I drink a beer with you, you have nothing wrongly made together against neo-Nazis, I had imagined

:lol: WTF?

[odin]

I drink a beer with you
You haven't done anything wrong
Together against neonazis
Is what I had in mind

Oh btw, that particular incarnation of the lyrics in the link is rather crappy with regards to proper German spelling and grammar.

I'll be going there next week for 5 days to celebrate being a year older. I'm really looking forward to it, and I hear there's no shortage of things to do, but I wonder if anyone here and any personal recommendations. Perhaps also of towns or villages nearby that I could visit in an afternoon....

Wall was still up last time I was there, but the Pergamon Museum in what used to be East Berlin, is one of the most impressive museums in the world.
