Berlin is one of the best cities in the whole word. Very friendly and mostly free of neonazis.
There is a great place to dance ABBA songs called Matrix, just under the subway station near Friedrichshein
Is one of my top favourite places to dance in the world, together with the famous Propaganda, or PPG , like the young people call it, in wudaokou, near the forestry university
It is known that Germans have weird taste for life, preferring cash to digital payments and not really understanding what does “global city” mean (just kidding here). I’ve lived in several German cities and Berlin does not differ much from others, except that it’s much less boring and probably much more English-speaking. The railways are as irregular as in Hamburg or Cologne, the beer can be as good as in Munich and you can get in some places as good Maultaschen as in Stuttgart. Berlin airports are shitty, too much multi-kulti on Alexanderplatz for some people and no one says “Servus” or “Moin” - but that’s a feature, not a bug of this city.
I only spent one night in Berlin (due to very limited time on that trip) and pretty much all of it was spent at Matrix. Kicked on dancing and drinking as long as I could, took a nap in the corner, then headed straight for the bus to Prague. Very fond memory. I'll visit properly one day.
Replying to you from Berlin with 200 MBit/s, thank you very much. Moved here a few years ago and can't really imagine living anywhere else in Germany.
Saw some similar weird hatred on Reddit recently. Not sure what happened to people in Berlin but just like any other big city there are lovely and shitty parts. You got to spend some time here to know which is which (obviously this may be different for all of us).
Anyone is allowed to be whomever they want to be in Berlin - so there is a mix of things and people quite unparalleled.
> Berlin is the shithole of Germany and everybody, except people from Berlin, agrees on this. This opinion is more uniting than the fall of the Berlin wall or anything else in this country.
> Germans don't like Berlin.
Yeah, that's just nonsense. Not sure what makes you qualified to make such sweeping assertions.
