Shopping

Shopping miles


Berlin is not only a cultural metropolis, but also a shopping paradise par excellence. From Monday to Saturday - occasionally also on Sundays and public holidays - Berlin's shops offer visitors the opportunity to make original discoveries that cannot be found anywhere else. In addition to the well-known shopping streets around the Kurfürstendamm, Friedrichstrasse, Potsdamer Platz and Leipziger Platz are other numerous interesting shops and exclusive consumer temples that are worth a visit.

 


Berlin's Christmas markets


Christmas markets have a long tradition in Berlin. As early as the 16th century, traders were selling honey cakes and “syrup pastries” on Petriplatz for a few pennies.


And so, from the end of November, the metropolis shows itself today in all its wintry diversity: illuminated boulevards and squares as well as pre-Christmas lights not only illuminate the way home for night owls, but also make the shopping spree a joyful experience. Visitors can choose between around 60 Christmas markets. Some consist of just a few festively lit stalls around a square, while others are so big that an afternoon is hardly enough.


Berlin antique, junk and weekly markets

Collectors of oddballs and lovers of old things will also find what they are looking for in the capital: almost every Berlin neighborhood has - in addition to its own weekly market - also a flea market where you can find one or the other good bargain.
