For music lovers
If you appreciate classical music, the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra usually conducts free concerts featuring the best musicians from different parts of the world. If you’re into rock bands and pop acts, join summer street parties like Karnavale and Fete de la Musique. Some jazz clubs also have free shows during weekdays.

The Museumsinsel is an island north of the Spree River where state-owned museums are located. In fact, the whole area is a UNESCO World Heritage site. You can purchase a ticket for all of the five museums, which is usually cheaper than buying a ticket for each building. Afterwards, you can check out the majestic Berliner Dome and have a picnic at the Lustgarten. But don’t leave Berlin without seeing the East Side Gallery, filled with street art from citizens, in memory of what was once the wall.
After the concerts and museums, you can also go to the flea market during the weekend. Aside from eclectic pieces for sale, you’ll also enjoy a wide selection of food items from different stalls. Just a tip: the churros and pizza margherita in Tiergarten are amazing.
