Das Stue
Berlin, Germany
Germany's cultural powerhouse is hard to miss for anyone with a penchant for art, music and food – these are the in-the-know places you should be hitting.
06 October, 2017
In many ways, Berlin is not your typical European capital, or even a typical German one. With less work and more play - the city was divided by the Berlin Wall until 1989, which meant that there was very little industry to be found - the sprawling (but not densely populated) city of three million often exudes the impression of a metropolis still finding itself. Here, past and future coexist - although there are still many signs of the political and cultural divide, which existed for almost 30 years, the cityscape is constantly changing.
While a bit of embourgeoisement may have become noticeable, Berlin's energy (and relatively low rents) have always attracted those who want to be different and find new ways of doing things. Boasting countless galleries, design-led boutiques and a effervescent nightlife that always showcases the best in cutting-edge music, Berlin has become a cultural powerhouse. It is a thriving and open city that some of the world's most interesting people have made home - and in the process, they have finally managed to teach locals how to make excellent food.
