Lovely zoo. You can get up close with many animals and they are in good condition. Be prepared to walk a bit.
Remco B — Google review
It was actually a nice, lovely forest and animals!, and I could imagine it is wonderful for kids. Their is a bit of walking, and you have to keep looking for the animals sometimes. but overall knowing that the caretakers are taking care of the animals it is lovely!
Robin P — Google review
Very nice place, huge wild Park and naturally but very few animals. You can spend the whole day there with enough tables to have breaks
Mostafa K — Google review
It's well worth at least one visit. There aren't a ton of animals but the whole place is stunning, interesting and very well maintained. Careful with small kids - quite a lot of walking involved.
Michael R — Google review
Excellent place for the family! Consider buying tickets in advance online, it will save you a couple of euros and lots of time in the queue. The bistro is mediocre and very slow but there are lots of possibilities to make a picnic with whatever you took from home.
Dmitry M — Google review
Unique park, the animals have lots of space to wander freely, there are very creative informative tools for kids and adult visitors, some of which are interactive too… unfortunately the aquarium tunnel was closed due to Corona restrictions, which was a big disappointment, however the kids enjoyed the visit so much!
Fatma H — Google review
Absolutely fantastic park. Most of it's paths are under the trees so walking there even in the summer heat is comfortable. Lots of wild life - bears, lynxes, wolves. 4-5 hours of relax in the nature. Highly recommended for families with kids.
Marian C — Google review
This is a great place. They focus on local wild life and work in fun ways to interactively (non digital) explore it. Everything is designed so well and fun for kids. A glass tunnel under pond, bridges over wolfs’ place, tunnels etc. I didn’t expect a lot and had a great day w the family. Can’t recommend it enough.

Beautiful castle at the Lake of Mirow, located on an island and having yet another island called “love island”. Also there is a Café, but I don’t recommend going there. Different review though. Close to the harbour too, where you can find a nice small place that sells boat supplies and some food too. Also sells stamps.
Alexander V — Google review
The translations into English were well done for those needing it. The audio guide was really helpful as well. Make sure to watch the presentation within the palace replica. It's a play between winter and summer. Very well done.

Lovely two rococo palaces from the 18th century, princess Louise and Frederike. Mostly destroyed in the war, restoration took place in earnest in 2005. Some ruined patches have been left to show how much love was invested in the buildings, the epitome of the epoch. Several pieces of fabric may be touched to see how wonderful the tapestry is. 5€ per adult, 10 - 18.00 daily.

The museum is well laid out and presented. Clear explanations, pictures & graphics on: - the formation, duration and liberation of the camp. - every aspect of life within the camp. Entrance is free. Well worth the visit. Highly recommended.

Need to decide between seeing Sachsenhausen and Ravensbrück best go here. The female inmates witness stories and the building infrastructure left standing give a much deeper impression of all the horrors and inhumanities of concentration camp life in the period.

Very interesting, really recommend this place.
Karol R — Google review
78 years go, after several months imprisoned in Ravensbrück, my grand-mother was delivered by the Red Army in April 1945. As a member of the French Resistance, she was denounced and deported to this concentration camp. In January 1939, Himmler let build up the Ravensbrück concentration camp in Brandenburg, North of Berlin, the only camp for women. The first inmates - German and Austrian women - arrived in May 1939. Some 130,000 prisoners, mostly women but also men and children, were imprisoned in Ravensbrück. In six years, Ravensbrück was transformed into a vast concentration camp complex, surrounded by satellites (kommandos) serving the German industry. The inmates were forced to work more than twelve hours a day, punctuated by dawn and evening calls, to develop and maintain the site; they served as slave labor in the sewing workshops and electrical assembly industries such as Siemens and Halske, as well as in the arms industries such as Heinkel, BMW, Mercedes and Skoda. Some were subjected to the medical experiments of Dr. Karl Gebhardt. Polish girls, nicknamed "rabbits" and political prisoners NN, Nacht und Nebel. They were subjected to sterilization experiments, muscle and bone transplants... After such a "nerve-wracking experience", my grand-mother passed her grand-children the following message: "There is no foreigner on this planet 🌍. ☮️ Peace can not be kept by force. Everyone shall contribute to achieve it by understanding" What a heritage from such a woman 👩 who survived this part of History.

Lovely spa and wellness centre, set on the shore of a lake, a beautiful setting. One of the highlights is the "Seesauna", where you can look out onto the lake while sweating in 80°C heat - and dip in the cold lake water afterwards, if you like. There are other saunas, too, plus steam bath etc, as well as salt pools and a larger pool for swimming.
Roger — Google review
Nice Therme with 4 Saunas, a quiet area which I didn't like because it was rather uncomfy with cheap blankets and a bad smell. Beds were also not supporting relaxation in the lake sauna. The library relaxation area is a little nicer but too small. In the lake sauna, you probably always find a seat because it's huge, and you have a nice view over the lake with the possibility to walk directly into the lake after the sauna visit. Especially during winter, quiet refreshing. The other area with the Saunas was good. Here, you have a live infusion, whereas in the lake sauna, it's automatic. There is also an ice area and two walk through showers for gold and hot water. The pools for my liking where all too cold and I didn't spend a minute in there. Overall a nice experience but there is potential to make it even nicer and a little more comfy.
Felix — Google review
Overall very underwhelming. Kitchen closes at 7pm, food is very expensive and of low quality. The only thing that is enjoyable is the lake sauna. Rather go to Vabali in Berlin for an experience 10 times as good at the same price. Terrible lighting concept, no customer experience design.
Eva S — Google review
Great idea to escape busy Berlin for a day and just relax. Easily reachable by public transportation, the train station is just 10 minutes away walking so don't be afraid to go without a car. All facilities are very nice, pool and sauna and steam baths are the best and the bistro is totally worth it!
Estefania B — Google review
A bit further out from Berlin, so I can not get there as often as I would like. It would be great to go once a week and discover everything that they have to offer. The saunas are my favorite, such a nice mix of options and many great programs at regular intervals.
Devin H — Google review
This place is a great place to relax. You can reach the place quite easily with the train and a short walk. I s there during Easter and while it was running at full capacity, it still felt quite empty so that relaxing was actually possible. This is really a highlight since in the other options in Berlin like Vabali or Liquidrom you feel like sardines packed in a can. The employees are really friendly and try their best to make your stay pleasant. Food options in the Therme itself were very limited and overpriced, but options in the hotel annexed are okay. Overall, great experience.
Andrea M — Google review
Very relaxing place, with various saunas and pools to choose from. I was here mid March but the cold did not matter in the warm pool outside, under the full moon. I have enjoyed it a lot and plan to go back as soon as possible.
Val G — Google review
The worst experience ever! The receptionist was rude and disrespectful. We only took 3 bathrobe sets but she entered 2 more into the bill without our consent. They refused to do anything when we asked for a correction, and fooled us to pay the whole amount by promising return the overpaid items to our bank account. The next day they changed their mind, said the only offer they can provide is two free sets for our next visit. How can we still trust such a company who lied and even stole from customers? Of course we won’t visit again! If you expect rudeness and arrogance, that would the a suitable place to go!

Sights & Landmarks
The Memorial and Museum Sachsenhausen is a powerful site that serves as a reminder of the atrocities committed during the Nazi regime. Visitors can explore the camp at their own pace, with guided tours available for deeper insight. The museum houses numerous artifacts, descriptions, and first-hand accounts that shed light on the horrors that took place there. Audio guides are recommended for a more comprehensive experience. While some parts of the camp have deteriorated over time, the sheer scale of the site is awe-inspiring.
One of the best I have been to. With the audio guide and information boards you can really get a feel of what was happening here over the 30 to 60 time period
Paul A — Google review
It was very informative with a cheap audio guide (roughly €3. 50). Entry is free. It's not very easy to find your way there if you're using public transport. Google Maps took us in via an office complex and police headquarters (the old SS training camp, I believe). It's got a lot of information in the different rooms with a lot of reading, although plenty of different languages are catered for. A lot of the main areas to visit have been restored or rebuilt and it's hard to gauge the conditions of the time. It does seem to be a work in progress to restore everything and add extra sections. Some of the interactive exhibits didn't seem to work which would be troublesome for those who needed audio guidance. The computers we were using at one point just all turned off. I would recommend it but it needs a full day and plenty of energy for all of the walking and some stamina for the reading. I think they offer guided tours but I'm not certain.

A profoundly moving and essential memorial. The Sachsenhausen Memorial & Museum is thoughtfully curated, offering deep insight into both the Nazi concentration camp and post-war Soviet use. The exhibitions, preserved buildings, and memorials are powerful and respectful. A must-visit for anyone seeking to understand this history.

Ok visit, but not that many original details still there which makes it more difficult to grasp the extent of the horror, especially for our teens. I don't want to say it's necessary to have the horrific details around, but to me it does bring a tangible message across for next generations, to make sure it never happens again.

Schiffshebewerke Niederfinow

Sights & Landmarks
Historical landmark
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Tours of an enormous ship hoist dating from 1934 & featuring a 36-meter lift for water traffic.
Our bike trip from Berlin to Niederfinow was an unforgettable adventure! Pedaling through scenic fields and charming small towns, we were treated to a picturesque journey that perfectly set the stage for the highlight of our day. Upon reaching Niederfinow, we were thrilled to catch the Schiffhebewerk in action. Witnessing this engineering marvel in motion was absolutely awe-inspiring. The sheer scale and precision of the ship lift left us in amazement. It’s incredible to see how effortlessly it raises and lowers massive vessels, a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship. The entire experience was both educational and exhilarating, offering a unique glimpse into the workings of a historic yet fully functional piece of engineering. If you’re ever near Berlin, we highly recommend taking the time to visit Schiffhebewerk Niederfinow—it’s a sight you won’t want to miss!

An impressive structure and it was awesome to see it in action. Fair warning though that the walk to get on top of it may be challenging for less able bodied people.
George M — Google review
I never knew that there was something like that in Brandenburg. If you go there in a warm season, make sure to take a boat tour. We were lucky to get the last boat tour this year: it is an unforgettable and unique experience to sit on a boat being lifted to a higher river level! During the boat tour you get guide explanations, so you will still learn a lot even if you prefer the boat to the classical excursion 😉

Spkki — Google review
A building straight out of Starwars, but actually bigger, very real and without a cheesy love story! One of these anywhere would be a good reason for a visit, but here they have two! cancel your Dinsney subscription and visit Niederfinow, ideally u come by boat and take a ride!
Papu K — Google review
This could be 5 star + We paid 5€ to walk around the old boat lift. Unfortunately all the information boards were in German or Polish. It was amazing to see the huge structure and to see how it worked lifting the boats, both were still in use. However, I found the whole experience a bit of a money spinner, you have to pay to park, pay to activate the App, pay to use the toilet and the only way to see the new boat lift is with a tour guide, but that's only in German! With all this money they are generating they could put some English information out. There is a small information centre which is free to enter and they had information boards on how it was erected and fortunately it was in English too 👍. The staff member we spoke to was very helpful and fortunately spoke some English which was a great help.

A lift for cargo ships working the waterways between the Oder and The Havel rivers. One that can lift 6000 tonne of ship and water 36 metres to navigate the differance in water level between the two rivers. Quicker than locks could ever do.
Stephen P — Google review
Something different - if in area definitely worth a visit We did a 3-day road trip around the Brandenburg region and this definitely was a highlight. During our exploring, we saw many beautiful castles, townships and lakes to this was something different. We were travelling with a Labrador. You can take a dog up. Dog-friendly. At the ticket kiosk, they gave us a pass that gave us entry via the door, rather than the rotating gate. Parking - there is one main car park - when leaving make sure you get a token (costs 3 euros for a car) from the parking machine next to the toilets, right by the drive-in/ out. Ha ! I thought you had to put 3 euros into the exit barrier machine. ...but no, it just takes the tokens.

The Pergamonmuseum is a museum complex located on Museum Island in Berlin, comprising five historical institutions across three wings. It houses an impressive collection of ancient Roman, Greek, Babylonian, and Persian artifacts. The museum is currently undergoing extensive renovations to repair structural damage and is expected to fully reopen by 2037. However, the North Wing and central area are set to reopen in 2027.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I love this place! 🥹 It was a one-time visit but so enriching and unforgettable. Walking inside felt like traveling back in time The Ishtar Gate was absolutely breathtaking 💙 and seeing the stone with Hammurabi’s laws ⚖️ gave me chills. And then the Roman Market Gate left me speechless. The size, the details, the feeling of standing in front of such a masterpiece… it was beyond words. Everything is displayed beautifully, it feels like a smooth journey through civilizations. Honestly, it’s not just “old things,” it’s history talking to you ✨ Highly recommend it if you’re in Berlin 🙌

If you haven't seen this museum till now, don't lose the chance to get familiar with the awesome history of great ancient human civilizations, it also can be interesting for kids or teenagers. Apparently it is gradually getting under construction section after another section, unfortunately I missed some important parts due to the reconstruction work, later on I had to check the missing parts on the original video & virtual tour of the museum.

One can easily spend more than 2 hours here if interested. The collection is huge and enormous. Definitely one of the largest museums.The audio guide is very well designed. The Mesopotamian, Babylonian and Islamic collections are incredible. 12 euros for direct ticket bought at the museum. Online booking in advance could help.
Sharvari S — Google review
A must visit museum in Berlin. Museum has so much collection of historical antique items. Ishtar gate is the main attraction and it's beautiful and huge. Also the Roman market fascade is huge and it's well preserved in museum. Audio guide helps in getting the information easily about all the artifacts. Very much recommended museum in Berlin.

Not a bad place. Not too big but enough to see. Pictures attached. It has very good disability access and the staff are very friendly. You need to leave your bags in lockers and need a euro or a 2 euro coin, which is returned after you take your stuff back out. Very bright and airy. Great perspective with the life size exhibits. Worth a visit but it isn't free.
Chris W — Google review
We did no wait because we had purchased the tickets online, but for ticket sale the line was about two hours long(on a Tuesday in the middle of the day). The museum is incredibly constructed and truly remarkable! Very full indeed though. Still, worth a visit while in Berlin.

The best museum I have visited so far in Berlin! Very rich and huge group of artifacts from a wide range of Civilizations like Ancient Civilizations, Greek and Roman, Islamic… I booked the tickets online and entered with no wait time, there are Audi devices in several languages as well.
Fatma H — Google review
One of the most interesting museums I have ever been to. Would surely recommend to anyone who likes history. Alot to learn and much beauty to admire. It took us about 3 hours without rushing and we were able to walk through all the exhibits. TIP: Make sure to carry an A4 size bag if you would like to carry some water or any thing else inside with you. There is a coat check area and lockers for bigger bags. You just need 1-2 Euro to access them which you can get back at the end of your tour. Enjoy!

It features a towering 75-meter-high dome and houses an organ with an impressive 7,269 pipes. The cathedral encompasses the Parish Church, Baptismal and Nuptial Church, and Memorial Church within its New Baroque design. Visitors can admire the Imperial Staircase adorned with bronze cornices and paintings by Albert Hertel from 1905.
We went on a very warm and sunny day. You have to leave backpacks in a locker (you need 1 euro coins which you get back when you return). We managed to get the last open locker as it was a busy day. Going into the cathedral you are met with a quiet and serene space with some fantastic murals and carvings on the huge dome. We spent 15-20 minutes just gazing around and admiring the huge organ (they have specific times when it's played but not when we had visited). You can then climb up 267 steps which starts very normal and wide and then later becomes narrow and winding metal stairs. There are places to stop and catch your breath but there are warnings everywhere that you have to commit once you start and it's not a trivial climb. Once up top you have fantastic views across the entire city and can walk around the entire dome admiring the 360 views. There was enough space to stop, admire the views and take plenty of pictures. As it was a very warm day, the side away from the sun was cooler and hence more busy. Once you have taken in the views you walk back down a different set of stairs (another 250+ steps) to a cafe area. Don't forget to go around the corner and fetch your bags. Overall a great place to learn the history, spend time in quiet contemplations and then get a workout for both your feet and your eyes. Highly recommend the 10 euro or so entrance fee (we bought online). The local area there is full of museums and other sights not to be missed.

Very beautiful cathedral. Once you buy your ticket you can enter and walk around inside. You can also walk up approximately 265 steps to gonto the outdoor observation deck. Great, far reaching views of the city. The cathedral has some scaffolding over some parts at this time.

Visited September 2025. You have to pay to enter. They don't take Amex. Price was 10 euros. Stepping inside this church made me think I was in an Italian church. The intricate details are incredible. Many paintings and ornamental features throughout. We made the climb to the top, which was a lot of steps, but you are rewarded with beautiful views of the city. I definitely recommend a visit.

This Cathedral is well worth a visit. There is an entrance fee and then you step inside. Take your time there is so much to admire and take in. The architecture is amazing. You also have the opportunity to climb the stairs for a rooftop view. Something like 280 steps, well worth it for the views. Highly recommended

The Berlin Dome is absolutely stunning! It’s a monument full of history, with incredible architecture and breathtaking paintings inside. The details are so beautiful that you can spend hours just admiring them. You can also climb to the top — the view of Berlin from up there is amazing! Definitely a must-visit spot if you’re exploring the city.

This magnificent cathedral, constructed between 1894 and 1905, welcomes visitors to explore its stunning interior through self-guided tours. Rich in history and architectural beauty, it’s a must-see destination for anyone who appreciates historic churches and timeless craftsmanship.

If you have some time to spare in Berlin, the Cathedral is definitely worth a visit. If you decide to go inside, I highly recommend taking the audio guide as it is very informative and well put together. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to visit the dome because it closes about 30 to 40 minutes before the official closing time. It’s worth going a bit earlier, as the views from the top must be excellent and there is no extra charge to access it.
Abril S — Google review
Absolutely magnificent architecture! This photo perfectly captures the grandeur of the Berliner Dom against a beautiful, clear blue sky. The huge central dome and the smaller side domes with their distinctive patina-green copper tops are truly breathtaking. The sheer scale and detailed sculptures on the façade make it one of Berlin's most impressive buildings. Even with a bit of scaffolding visible (which is common for historical maintenance), the majesty of the cathedral shines through. The trees below add a nice touch of nature to the monumental structure. This is a must-see landmark situated right on Museum Island. Be sure to go inside if you have the chance, and don't miss the crypt or the climb to the dome for panoramic views of the city. A true highlight of any Berlin trip!

DDR Museum

Museum
History museum
The DDR Museum in Berlin offers an immersive experience of everyday life in the former East Germany. It is known for its interactive exhibits, including a reconstructed high-rise apartment, a simulated drive in an original Trabant P601, and a replica of a 1970s East German kindergarten. Visitors can touch, wear, and interact with various items while learning about the GDR's history.
It showcases key aspects of the former German Democratic Republic in a creative, hands-on way. Each section is carefully set up, and you can interact with almost every display, with clear explanations in both German and English. Open every drawer you see—each one is interactive and hides a surprise, from personal stories to everyday objects that bring the era to life. Original audio clips from the time are in German but sometimes explained in English, so you really grasp what life was like back then. If you want a true sense of daily life in East Germany, from work to home, leisure, and even sports, this is the place. Entry is free with the Berlin Pass, and you’ll need about 60–90 minutes to see everything. Highly recommended.

Visited during my city break in Berlin. If you are a nerd and also want to gain more insight about how different the life was on the other side of the wall, it’s a must-go place. The prices are fair, and they also offer discounts for students, even international students! Besides this, the museum is really nice, with a Trabant, a prison cell, an elevator and a real-scale apartment full of things from that era. I would love to revisit this place
Gregoretti S — Google review
A truly fascinating and immersive museum in Berlin. The DDR Museum brings history to life with interactive exhibits that allow you to not just see but also experience daily life in former East Germany. From reconstructed living rooms and kitchens to authentic Trabant cars you can sit inside, everything feels tangible and engaging. My children especially enjoyed the hands-on exhibits — typing on an old typewriter, exploring a recreated apartment, and even experiencing the classroom environment. What makes this museum stand out is the combination of education and fun. It’s not just reading information panels — you get to touch, feel, and step into history. Perfect for families, history enthusiasts, and anyone curious about how people lived under the DDR. Highly recommended as one of the must-visit museums in Berlin.
Alfred N — Google review
The DDR Museum tells you its history and mostly about people and their way of life, culture, food, activities, careers, lifestyle, and entertainment. However they do not sugarcoat the things that the government did to their own people. People had what a basic person should have like universal health care, shelter, employment, and food but it’s also important to note that spying on people and locking them up is not a good thing. Here’s what we liked about the museum: • Interactive • wheelchair friendly • The ticket is not too overpriced • A lot of objects to see and touch at the same time like the typewriter • Many different rooms to see like the prison and the apartment Here’s what we didn’t like: • The space is way too small meanwhile having a bunch of visitors crammed into the museum. -1 • No shed outside the museum just in case it rains. • No time slots, you just buy your ticket and then go inside and be one of the crowded visitors -1 Before you go: • Book your tickets in advance • Bring an umbrella before you go • Don’t bring luggages and cumbersome bags, their lockers get occupied so fast or the visitors haven’t left the museum yet • the Museum is too small which means a stroller might be in the way.

Interesting museum with tons of soviet era memorabilia. The large format displays of housing and cars are particularly well done and informative. Gets VERY crowded they need a bigger space. In true Soviet fashion they are good about ignoring things they dont want to exist, like the flu and Covid. Nearly all the small displays are in cabinets or drawers that you and your hundreds of friends will need to open by hand.
Derek T — Google review
It's so cool because it gives you a really hands-on look at what life was like in East Germany (the DDR). You can touch everything and really feel like you're stepping back in time. It's super engaging and a totally fun way to learn history!
Danny S — Google review
Nice museum for everyone as it gives both deep and succinct explanations. Some parts are even interactive in a useful way! The entrance fee is not cheap, but you’ll stay for a while if your goal is to get every bit of knowledge out of it. It has some nice reconstrustitutions of households under the DDR as well.
Thibaut — Google review
Amazing! I didn’t manage to see all the expositions but what I managed for 2 hours was amazing! A great collection of artifacts and history and it’s also quite interactive. I highly recommend it! And for those who likes museums, it may take up to 3-4 hours, 2 was definitely not enough!

Museum Island is a small island located in the Spree River and is home to a collection of five renowned museums.
In the heart of Berlin, Museum Island is a UNESCO World Heritage site that houses five of the city’s most important museums. Ancient artifacts at the Pergamon Museum or classical art at the Alte Nationalgalerie, this island offers a cultural treat.
Ana S — Google review
Impressive architecture, but limited overall experience Museum Island’s building architecture is truly stunning — the classical facades and grand structures are a visual treat and stand out beautifully against the backdrop of Berlin. However, beyond the exterior, I found the overall experience somewhat underwhelming. While Berlin itself offers many architectural marvels and vibrant cultural scenes, Museum Island didn’t feel as engaging or unique as expected. Worth a visit for the architecture alone, but perhaps not a must-see if you’re short on time.
Ashvin K — Google review
Museum Island is one of Berlin’s main cultural attractions, bringing together several important museums in one place. The architecture is impressive, and the area is easy to walk around. I visited in the morning and the colonnade with its garden and sculptures was open and free to enter. It’s a good spot to learn, explore, and spend a few hours.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising five major museums on one island. It’s a great place to stroll round and soak up the atmosphere even if you don’t visit a Museum. Lots of building works but still an enjoyable experience.
Linda — Google review
Museum Island is one of Berlin’s most impressive highlights—a UNESCO World Heritage Site that brings together five major museums on a single, stunning island. Whether you step inside or simply walk around, the atmosphere is rich, historic, and beautifully immersive. The island is home to the Pergamon Museum, Alte Nationalgalerie, Neues Museum, Altes Museum, and Bode Museum—each offering something unique, from ancient civilizations and archaeological wonders to classical art, sculpture, and cultural history. Even with some construction happening around the area, the charm of the place remains untouched. The architecture across the island is truly remarkable and feels different from the rest of Berlin—grand, elegant, and full of character. It’s always busy with tourists, yet surprisingly clean and well-kept. Just be mindful of the usual tourist traps nearby.

If you want to experience the beauty of Berlin as a tourist, this is the number 1 place to be. The architecture here is unparalleled compared to the other parts of the city. It was also astonishingly clean although it is full of tourists all the time. You will need to be extra cautious in this area. Beware of people who make who sign on a form to support children and then ask for money. Don't fall for them.

Berlin TV Tower

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
The Berlin TV Tower, also known as the Fernsehturm, is an iconic symbol of the city and a popular attraction for tourists. Standing at 368 meters tall, it offers a viewing gallery at 203 meters and a revolving restaurant at 207 meters. Despite its association with the former German Democratic Republic (GDR), it now stands as a symbol of reunified Berlin. Visitors can enjoy a 360-degree panorama of the city from its observation deck, although long queues are common.
We came during the Festival of Lights. They put on a nice show like they do every year. Really enjoyed this years show. We had great weather which was fantastic. Look forward to going next year again.

A little pricy however you will get the best views across the city, you can see for miles. You go quickly up the elevator to the point where your ears pop on the way up. If you take photos of the views be prepared to alter the white balance as the viewing windows tend to have a green tint. Would be nice to see the views at night.
Random U — Google review
Perfect view on a good day. In my opinion the best time to visit is daytime on a clear day. That's when you get the best overview of the city. After sunset it's too dark and you can't identify the various places in the city. It felt a bit crowded on the viewing terrace though. Too many people due to early closing because of a special arrangement on the day of our visit. The queue to the elevator going down was way too long.
Elisabeth J — Google review
Iconic View, But Manage Your Expectations As a Berlin resident, I finally took the plunge to visit the TV Tower with my guests from abroad. I booked the Standard Ticket with the bar reservation included, and I have to praise the overall organization: getting in was incredibly efficient, and the elevator ride was impressively fast. The 360-degree view on a clear day is, of course, absolutely phenomenal and gives you a panoramic understanding of the entire city. The Major Downside: Overcrowding Unfortunately, the experience at the top was quite disappointing due to the severe overcrowding. It was so crowded that it was difficult to move, and we could barely get close to the windows to view the city in a relaxed way. It felt hectic and rushed, which really diminished the beauty of the experience. Bar Service Saves the Day A huge positive was the bar. They have great drink options, and the barman was very generous with the portions of wine, which certainly helped make the visit more enjoyable despite the crowds! Verdict: While the organization and bar service were excellent, the sheer number of people allowed up at once is poorly managed. If the tower better controlled the number of visitors allowed per time slot, this experience would be world-class. It’s worth doing once for the view, but be prepared for a very crowded and potentially frustrating experience if you visit during a busy time.

I booked the breakfast experience for my partner and I. It wasn’t as full as we were expecting and we were totally blown away with our window seat. It was a clear sunny morning and the changing view over the 1 hour 40 mins. The breakfast was well presented and service was excellent. It’s a unique experience. For the extra cost over just going to the viewing platform it’s worth every extra pound/euro! You get a clearer extremely relaxing view and no crowds. We were lucky with the weather on a November day and noticed that it got more hazy later in the morning. There is a system for letting people in to the building which mixes those going to viewing deck and those got the restaurant. It might be better to give priority to eaters as they have specific time slots. I wish I’d taken my binoculars. All in all I’d highly recommend the restaurant experience for breakfast time views. Even though it was ‘just’ breakfast it seemed nevertheless quite romantic for our little celebration.

This great structure dominates the Berlin skyline. It can be seen from all over Berlin. It’s a famous landmark of Berlin. I didn’t go to the top due to time restraints and the cost. I couldn’t find anywhere that sold entry tickets for less than €20. It’s also in a reasonably built up area so sights would be limited from most the sides, I would guess. However, saying that there are some incredible buildings nearby that might be nice to see from above. I personally think I would prefer other viewing experiences in Berlin for lower costs(I can’t name them as this is against googles reviewing policies but it might be a certain political building with stellar views). I hear there is a restaurant at the top that friends have recommended. A stable and defining piece of the Berlin skyline that can be seen from throughout the city, however, high prices let this tower down.
R. G — Google review
The tower is an unmistakable icon of Berlin’s skyline, a striking relic of the GDR era. Its gleaming sphere is instantly recognizable, and the observation deck at around 203 m offers sweeping, impressive views of the entire city. It’s a bit on the expensive side, but the experience feels worth it.
Vidya H — Google review
I went here for the 'Highest Breakfast' experience and it was lovely. The food was delicious and the staff and waiter were super friendly and welcoming. The waiter told me that Breakfast time is the quietest time to go, and indeed, only a few other tables were occupied and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. Apparently the evening dining can be quite busy, and louder as a result, so I'm glad I picked to go in the morning. The floor where the tables sit is slowly rotating, so you get to see the whole surrounding skyline without even leaving your seat. I loved the neat but fancy decor, and drinking my coffee while looking out over Berlin. I would definitely recommend the restaurant if you're thinking of visiting.

East Side Gallery

Memorial
Sights & Landmarks
The East Side Gallery is a preserved graffiti project covering a 1,316m-long remnant of the Berlin Wall in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg. It celebrates the fall of the wall and features around 100 graffiti paintings by artists from all over the world.
A little way from the main tourist attractions, it’s a pleasant walk along the river Spree to see the longest remaining part of the Berlin Wall. 1.3 km in length, decorated by over 100 artists with short information boards along the way. Here you get a feel of what a divided city this was. Only the 3.6 m inner wall remains but add the boundary signal fence, 3m border fence and a watchtower every 600 meters to appreciate how separate both sides must have felt.

I had to visit this place for my 3 days in Berlin and it didn't disappoint! Iconic to Berlin. Some are a trip and some I didn't get, but if you run into those you can walk right past to a new piece. Information on the artists is listed in front of the artwork. Super cool. I went solo I don't think I would want to go as a group by going solo you can spend time enjoying the parts you like and take it at your own pace.

An iconic open-air gallery full of history, emotion, and creativity. Each mural tells a unique story — from freedom and unity to peace and hope. Walking along the wall is both thought-provoking and inspiring. A must-visit in Berlin for anyone who wants to feel the city’s soul through art.

East Side Gallery – An iconic open-air landmark An absolutely iconic spot. It’s the longest preserved section of the Berlin Wall, stretching for about 1.5 km along the riverbank. Essentially, it’s an open-air museum showcasing creative, impactful, and often thought-provoking wall art from various artists. It’s definitely worth a visit, as it gives you a strong sense of what the divided city once looked and felt like. The artworks are unique, symbolic, and visually striking. It's also a great place for those classic “Berlin” hype photos. Many murals even include QR codes that provide background information about each piece. A small warning: the area is very busy and there are quite a few pickpockets around. Just keep an eye on your belongings so that this otherwise great experience isn’t spoiled. Overall, a must-see in Berlin.

The East Side Gallery offers a wonderful walking experience filled with vibrant, amazing murals that vividly capture the history and spirit of Berlin. The artwork not only celebrates freedom but also includes clean, powerful graffiti that traces the story of the Berlin Wall dividing East and West Germany.Beyond the murals, the park behind the wall provides a peaceful and picturesque spot to relax after the walk, making the entire visit both culturally enriching and refreshing. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in history, art, and the unique atmosphere of Berlin.

As the history of Berlin is very dictated by the wall that separated it, very good to see it and easy to imagine how it would feel for the people living in the same city but separated from this giand wall. Also i liked that in the park nearby was a lot a people who were chilling, playing and having fun 🌞
Valdrin A — Google review
It was amazing to see the Berlin Wall up close, covered in murals that are not just beautiful but also carry powerful messages. For me it had historic moments to things that still feel relevant today. The walk isn’t too long, and every few steps there’s another piece of art that makes you stop and think. Definitely worth visiting.
Nabeel Z — Google review
I really enjoyed looking across at all the art and little tags locals and others had made on the wall, took plenty of photos. One thing that did irritate me slightly was the amount of attention the picture of the two men kissing got was ridiculous, also it was so crowded at this specific picture that it was almost impossible to take a photo of it and even walk past it, people by this specific picture were also very rude pushing others out of the way. It really upsets me because so many of the other pictures barely had any attention when I would argue there were so much nicer than the one stated above

My Buddy and I had a fantastic time here. We spend over 10 hours here. The Sauna options are awesome. So many great choices. Everybody is friendly. A very relaxed and chilled place to enjoy a day of relaxation. They have Hefeweizen on Tap which is really great. The Food in the Restaurant was awesome. We had lunch and later dinner there. I can't saying anything negative about the food or service. We mainly chilled on the rooftop patio. Sunday is a great time to come, no many people around. The pools are fun too. Loved the floating quite pool. We had such a great time we will be back. Can't wait. Thanks for letting us enjoy the facilities to the end. We where some of the last to leave. Thanks for your patience. The employees make the place special. Thanks for a wonderful time.

Huh somewhere between 3 and 4 tbh, but somehow more for three. So in consideration of price, and comparing price this price with vabali I would say that this spa fails the most. 6h with saunas and therme included is smth like 95 euros and ok its fine but I would for this price expect few basic things: - there is no shower gel.. - really limited and hidden places for taking water even in new buildings there is no place for drinkable water - towels not provided - because of location I would expect that's cheaper And then few things that I would expect for this money: - Ordering in a restaurant is like you need to go to the place order food and then they will bring it to you, it's kind of a half self service - would expect a lot of more sun beds it's almost impossible to find one that's free and many of them are just covered with someone's towel. - just found at the end that it's forbidden to take pictures, I don't have an issue with not taking pictures but it's really not so obvious Positive things: - really nice big pools, salty water, sound pool - Thai restaurants have really good food - new building panorama sauna and last floor terrace is awesome Overall, most of sauna's are really small so for sauna part if you want to visit there is much better sauna focus spa and it's in the center of Berlin. But for pools, I would definitely choose this one over the Vabali.

I've been to better spas..... My wife and I went here last night because we received a gift certificate for our wedding. We spent a little over 6 hours in the pool and sauna. Unfortunately, we didn't like it that much. While the saunas themselves are great, our favorite was the panoramic sauna overlooking the lake, everything else is tiny and feels cramped. The large saltwater pool is nice, but not as relaxing. And again, the space between the pools and the beds is very small and hard to walk around. A big positive surprise was the restaurant. We had the edamame, gyoza, mangu curry with shrimp and bun bo nam bo. It was delicious. Probably one of the best Thai meals I've had west of Phuket. Unfortunately, the evening ended on a sour note as the parking garage is also - surprise, surprise - super cramped and I scratched the rims of our car going down the super narrow ramp. To sum up: we've been here, but we prefer the SpreewaldTherme in Burg or the VaBali Spa in Berlin.

This spa is about 1 hour by train from Berlin then around 20 minutes by bus. Ideally you should spend at least 3 hours to really enjoy it. It offers jacuzzi, swimming pools and sauna. I loved the jacuzzi and the lavender sauna along with many cold and hot showers. Daily pass cost Euro 27 and 10 extra for sauna. Unfortunately, the food is very limited and the sitting is just wooden benches with ants crawling all over the tables. Obsulatly disgusting! There is a nice park overlooking a lake next to it , it's worth a visit.

This is one of the most relaxing and clean public thermal and spa places I've seen. It's affordable, you can reach it by train and public transport in less than an hour and half from Berlin. They have different kinds of pools inside and outside. I would like to give a plus point for the pool with underwater music and its relaxing atmosphere. I heard its textile-free for adults on Saturday. Make a phone call and reassure it before you head on to this beautiful oasis.

Super cool feelings during the winter time! There are lots of pool to chill inside and one of them in outside which is the coolest one! For 3 hours cost is 17 euro around, I paid in January 2020. They give a bracelet for entrance and locker to put your stuff safely. Only one thing was really annoying if you go there really busy time, after bathing when you’re exiting from the place you need to wait in the line to give your bracelet and for payment! It’s horrible system which I saw first time in my entirely life! Why they’re not taking money at the entrance and putting a box to want us to put bracelets... I didn’t expect from Germany sorry but disappointed.

Water park
Water & Amusement Parks
Tropical Islands is a vast water park with accommodations like rooms and cottages, featuring an indoor rainforest and a lagoon. The Aquapark AMAZONIA offers outdoor heated pools, water slides, and Balinese beds for relaxation. Conference facilities are available for business events. Guests can enjoy various dining options on-site. While some visitors had issues with check-in, they found the park impressive with its diverse activities and natural elements like animals and plants.
We had a great stay, but yes they use too much chlorine in the water and since chlorine is a gas and is not trapped well in warm water the atmosphere is feeling heavy of chlorine. This is unfortunate. Having said that, we had a great stay. Not all the staff are polite as expected but the greatest majority are good. They are just not very confortable with English. The service was good however. We stayed at the sunrise houses and it was a great surprise. It was clean and very fresh, almost new even.

It’s an incredible experience that I will never do again. The waterpark aspect is nice and huge, but every beach chair is taken by towels… You can change to swim wear in the dome but there are not enough closets for everyone and the ones that seem available are broken. Meaning the lock doesn’t work. The food is bad and the service to get the food is worse - it’s horrendous. They have hired just about 1 server per restaurant and they only speak German. Today our dinner restaurant at Ohana hotel where we stay, had run out of 2 food items, of 5 available, and ketchup. At least they said that they might have it tomorrow, but no guarantees. The room in Ohana is nice. And one elevator is broken so always a queue to get up to your room. You can buy a refill cup, that you can fill every 45 minutes, but there was always a queue and multiple times we experienced that drinks had run out or no ice… If you like regular quality food, then this is not for you. If you like good food, then Germany is not for you. So, all in all it’s an experience - not be repeated.

Tropical Islands - a place that will test if your team would survive on a deserted island. I came to Tropical Islands for two days with a group of 16 friends. I booked four tents (bookings were made simultaneously, from one account). Upon arrival, I discovered that two tents were in Zone 1, and two more in another one – about 5 minutes apart. It seemed absurd to split the group, but I decided it wasn't worth arguing about. Upon arriving at the tents, we discovered that one of our assigned tents was occupied by strangers, leaving my guests with nowhere to sleep. I spent approx. 1.5 hours at the reception desk discussing the situation, and the staff sent me from one employee to another, with no specific action. Each employee kept me waiting, without telling me how long or for what I was waiting for. The manager suggested moving one tent to Zone 1 and leaving the other four guests separately in Zone 2, or putting four people in a "house" in a completely different area from the rest of my guests. This would have meant we'd be housed in three different areas of the complex. We weren't given the option of moving all of us to the same area. The only comment from the staff was "we are overbooked, we can't do anything about it - you can write a complaint". When I asked ironicaly if I could give a one-star rating on Google Maps as compensation, the employee said yes. What I'm doing right now. After the argument, we were given a tent that leaked and was completely wet (pics attached). The staff told us, they don't have any protective foil and we had to deal with it by ourselves. When asked what kind of compensation we will receive for the inconvenience, wasted time, and ruined atmosphere, the employee said we could get 4 coctails vouchers. After commenting that there were definitely more of us and the whole group was now waiting and getting upset, the employee decided the problem was limited to one tent. Ultimately, we received 7 vouchers, which could only be used in the area outside the main water attractions. The worst customer service I've ever experienced. The entire complex advertises itself as an amusement park, although the attractions included in the ticket price are two swimming pools (one of which is a children's playground), four indoor water slides, one pool and one outdoor slide. During our stay, the outdoor water wasn't very warm. The outdoor slide didn't have enough water, and we stopped at every turn, having to push ourselves off the walls. The bar and food court, as well as most of the attractions, close at 10:00 PM – this isn't a place for adults looking to spend a pleasant evening, enjoy an exotic evening drink on the beach, dance, etc. If it weren't for the fact that I wasted a lot of time on Saturday arguing with the staff and having team-building activities planned for my guests for the evening, we would have left right after breakfast on the second day, as there was absolutely nothing to do for more than 4-5 hours. On the positive side, I came with fantastic people who organized themselves, made a great atmosphere and wanted to have fun together. Breakfast was also good. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. The Polish Suntago is definitely more attractive, better organized, and has a wider variety of attractions for everyone and stuff is more pro-client.

We arrived at 6pm and waited in line for a little over 1hr to get checked in. Check in person was friendly but overwhelmed. We had to find our way around during our stay but it’s ok because my husband and my son are very good in memorizing the way. The frustration started when we wanted to check out. They have some check out machines that many people use to check out, but many of them are stuck because the machine won’t take the payment so in the end they can’t finish the self check out. After waiting and observing the situation, we decided to do check out at the counter. The person (a beautiful lady) told us how much to pay and I reached my wallet to pay to the cents with coins. This, apparently, created frustration for the beautiful lady and she had to shake her head while looking at what I was doing. VERY UNPOLITE, but also very German! Honestly, we had a great time at tropical island and in the end she had to ruin that experience. WHYYY???? I just don’t get it. But be prepared for this kind of customer service wherever you are when in Germany!

Impressive at first glance but we wouldn't come again. The initial impression is really cool, the jungle area and overall size of the dome is nice! But afterwards, you'll notice some things: - Food and service are absolutely horrible. We waited 10 minutes to be seated at a restaurant, and there was no one in front of us and the restaurant was basically empty. - Almost all arcade games and tables in the game area are just broken. Overall, our group agreed that it was a nice one time experience and maybe really cool for a single day stay with small children, but we wouldn't go there again.
Alexander M — Google review
The venue itself is genuinely beautiful and well-kept. The environment is immersive, clean, and provides a pleasant tropical atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy the unique setting. Dining Disappointment: The food quality is poor. It mostly consists of low-quality frozen products sold at the price of normal, fresh meals. This is a significant drawback for a day-long visit. • Locker Trouble: The changing room situation was frustrating. Lockers for personal belongings are open and seemingly available, but are unusable, which causes inconvenience right at the start of the visit. • Service Hit-or-Miss: The staff attempts to be nice and polite, but the execution of good service is inconsistent. Their efforts are visible, but the helpfulness and efficiency vary.

On balance a great experience enjoyed by us all. Would advise an overnight stay, as facilities can be used prior both check-in and check-out. Arriving around 17:00 ~ albeit in November ~ using the QR code meant little or no delay, leaving time for the pools and water-slides prior the buffet dinner. Likewise with an early start we were able to use many of the facilities ahead of the day-trippers before a buffet breakfast. An imaginative way of using a remarkable historic building, and an interesting contrast to the autumn weather beyond! Our only criticism stems from using the regional railway service to arrive (30 mins delay) and depart (120 mins delay)... maybe the trains ran on schedule back in the day?

It was the most horrible experience. We arrived at 11:30, none of the lockers were locked. We tried dozens of lockers. We, like many other people, had to leave our things in an open locker. Or we had to carry everything with us. We were with three small children, so carrying everything with us was not an option. The air and water inside were not warm enough, everyone was freezing, both the children and us. Very few hair dryers. Finally, when we were leaving, I accidentally noticed the extra 10, 15 and 25 euros. When I asked the cashier what it was for, he said that it was for the bracelet that closes the locker, 2.50 euros and he didn't know anything more. He sent us to the information desk and didn't want to solve the problem. The information desk showed that it was a charge for our numerous attempts to close the locker. Of course they took 50 euros from us, but we spent a lot of time arguing and our tired children barely survived the whole time. I can only imagine how many people didn't notice and just paid whatever they were charged. And for all this terrible service we paid 200 euros and an additional 100 euros for food (only for two adults and three small children under 5 years old).

Open-air museum detailing 19th century farm & village life, with guides in period clothing.
Great open air museum. We got a small activity workbook to work through with our child, which meant that it was the first time we could spend a good amount of time there. Just be careful getting to the village by car. Parking is limited.

Today we visited this Museum. It was really interesting. It’s not too big, but the last bit is currently shut as they are renewing a few things. There are some things for children to do. Stories are told in some of the houses. There are toilets inside, if needed.

A bit too small for the entry fee but as a student you get 1,50€ discount on regular 5,00 €. Even in the small venue, it shows the culture and lifestyle of then isolated community of Spreewald. You can even try some of the old wooden shoes and try washing clothes in the old north sorbic way. You can listen to how the language of the area used to be. I was excited to see, how the women used to cover their head and hairs some 50-60 years ago in western countries, and why the generations of same culture take the same thing from other cultures as questionable after just 50/60 years.

6 euro per adult, free for kids below 16. Parking is a bit expensive at 7 euro. Nice museum and kids friendly, but small, tops 1 h. Beautiful surroundings and definitely recommend a stop at the nearby biergarten. Beautiful walks and nice with canoes too. Cash only!

Nice but small museum with a few houses showing the history of this area. Entrance is fair but parking in the area is expensive. Also, don’t come for the harbour or river trips - simply too touristy and crowded. Go elsewhere for that.

Sleek spa getaway offering rooms with nature views, plus a laid-back restaurant.
A big variety of thermal baths, it's entertaining to move from one to another. Thermal baths section is not textile free, sauna section is, which is quite convenient. Great 2+1 evening deal, where you pay for 2 hours, get 1 for free

Very rude service in the cafeteria of sauna area. They took my water bottle from my bag when I was not there, because it was a glass bottle, which is okay. I didn't know that it was not allowed to take glass bottle and it was not written anywhere. After visiting sauna I was thirsty and asked them to give me some water from my bottle. He started with very nonsense arguments and pour the water so angrily and gave it to me. I have no idea how it could be the behaviour of a service personnel.

We only used the SPA facilities and not the hotel, but the former where unexpectedly excellent (the hotel looks great too, if you like the sort). Spacious, new, impeccable with a large variety of thermal baths, fed with water from a salty hot spring 1,350mts deep, and an outstanding sauna landscape! The food and service at the restaurant in the SPA area was also excellent and can be accessed from within the bath area or from outside. Finally, great value for money!!

Good place to relax but has some downsides. 15 minutes of waiting in line to checkout and entrance to the facility. Moving around in the locker room was uncomfortable - narrow changing rooms, narrow passages and narrow lockers. Poor hair dryers. Showers - no soap to wash the body before entering the pool area. Children splashed around in the high-salinity pool - salty water in the eyes was not pleasant. I was positively surprised by the baskets for the private belongings of the guests of the facility, which should reduce the unused sunbeds, occupied by 'towels'. Floating in a high-salinity pool was a nice experience. Same as 'jumping' between hot and cold pools. It's a pity that everywhere descriptions are only in German. Only in the restaurant part I saw information in Polish. I do not know how many foreigners visit these thermal baths, but I think that signs/descriptions also in English would be useful. If I have the opportunity, I will come here again and try the sauna area.
Vanalai — Google review
The number of stars is the same because the pool area and the sauna area cannot be evaluated separately. The pool part deserves five stars, everything is modern, the pools are hot, the food in the restaurant is better and beautifully designed than in most normal restaurants. The sauna part deserves one star for the pleasant sitting by the fireplace, but that's all. A couple of saunas, the rituals are only done in one small sauna and they are so boring, no music and all more or less the same. Also, someone could occasionally wash the glass on the sauna door. And very kindly staff.

The place is amazing, it has many adequate facilities and you get quite relaxed. Statt was friendly and we had a good time. The only thing that made our visit a unpleasant was the fact that we are not white European looking people and if you go during the week, be ready to be the focus point from all the older visitors who sometimes seemed to be very uncomfortable with our presence there. It took me a while to get relaxed with so many people keeping the eyes on what I do.

Wow! This is the nicest place I’ve been to in a long time, there are indoor 5 pools of varying temperatures and salt contents, one pool is only 18C. Also inside there is a large hot tub and a snack and drink bar. There is also an outdoor pool. For an small extra fee you can use the sauna area, this includes multiple indoor and outdoor sauna and one outdoor pool. In this area there is also a drink and snack bar. The staff here are very friendly and helpful and I would strongly recommend it here to any one who has not been before.

Albrechtsburg Castle, purported to be Germany's oldest, overlooks the River Elbe and offers a rich blend of art and history. Visitors can take a steep staircase or a cable car to reach the castle, with both options offering stunning views of the medieval skyline and the Elbe river. The castle is located in Meissen, known for its historic town center, religious buildings, cultural institutions, and world-famous porcelain factory.
Beautiful castle, well labeled rooms. The Histopad for tours was just OK. You end up looking at the screen instead of the beautiful reality right in front of you.

Staatliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Meissen GmbH

Staatliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Meissen GmbH, located at Talstrasse 9, is a historic castle factory that showcases porcelain from 1710 to the present. Visitors can witness the centuries-old process of making Meissen china using traditional designs on a self-guided tour lasting between 30 and 60 minutes. The manufactory also offers pre-recorded audio devices in multiple languages for an immersive experience.
A really lovely and modern building, which feels very light and airy. Our tour guide was excellent, providing great facts and stories. Well worth the visit, which is a 30 minute train ride from Dresden, and then a 10 minute walk from the train station. Tip: The cafe was surprisingly good! You have the option of indoor or outdoor seating.

The Meissen porcelain manufactory is a very interesting place for those who love beautiful tableware, beautiful trinkets and are interested in crafts. You can go to the store and the museum at any time when the manufactory is open. But I strongly recommend purchasing tickets with a demonstration of the production process; it is better to buy them in advance for a tour in a language suitable for you. However, there is an English audioguide, it allows you to take advantage of the German excursion. I advise to visit a local cafe, where you will have the opportunity to dine on original Meissen porcelain. As a compliment we get there especial cookies with manufacture symbol.

Nestled just 15 kilometers northwest of Dresden, Moritzburg Castle is a stunning Baroque masterpiece that captivates visitors with its enchanting architecture and serene surroundings. Originally built as a hunting lodge for Augustus the Strong, this majestic castle features four distinctive round towers and houses an impressive collection of paintings, ceramics, and hunting trophies. The picturesque grounds surrounding the castle provide a perfect backdrop for leisurely strolls after exploring its opulent interiors.
One of the best museum experiences I have ever had. I highly recommend taking the tour inside the castle, and I guarantee that you will not regret it. The museum is greatly managed, thanks to the staff. Upon buying a ticket, you will be provided with a tablet that you can use to get a virtual reality experience of the place during the time of August the Strong! We went on a Sunday and were the last ones to enter. The staff patiently waited for us until we were done with our tour.

This beautifully symmetrical palace, nestled in the middle of a man-made lake, exudes a charming yellow and white exterior that pays homage to the local style. Step inside and embark on a journey through time, exploring the palace’s rich history and the fascinating artifacts it houses. Take a leisurely stroll around the palace to capture a breathtaking 360-degree view, which won’t take much of your time. On the right side of the palace, you’ll find a staircase leading up to a hidden gem: a metal Cinderella shoe! This palace was the filming location for the Czech version of Cinderella, and ladies are welcome to try on the iconic sandal. Men might even want to give it a shot! This charming castle is a perfect destination for a quick and enjoyable visit.

Famous castle which was the main location for Tří Oříšky pro Popelku ( a Czech Cinderella film). Was closed as they are preparing for the winter exhibition, however, the grounds were beautiful and the outside of the castle was impressive. Half an hour ride in a large horse and carriage (there were 3 adults, 5 children and 1 toddler),cost 50 euros.

We visited Moritzburg Castle yesterday. It was a very rainy day, so we could not enjoy the outdoors and gardens much, but that did not take away from the splendor of the inside of the castle. It was stunning! The castle was originally built as a hunting lodge 1542-1546. The rooms inside the castle had so much detail and history. I really loved the tapestry of Charles V from 1545. Just amazing. I also really enjoyed the Chapel. Moritzburg is a must visit for history lovers. It’s an easy bus ride (about 30 min) from Dresden Nuestadt Station and a short walk from the bus stop. Amazing day!

Pros: 1.Beautiful castle with lots of furnished rooms. 2.

Cons: 1.No stroller or pram can be taken inside. 2.The lifts are only useable if a staff member allows it which is very inconvenient for wheelchair users. 3.Lots of steps/stairs.

Vast park with bird, reptile & mammal enclosures, plus a reconstructed farmhouse complex.
Very pleasantly surprised when visited. It is very apparent that a lot of effort (and money) has been put into this project. I can nothing but recommend this zoo for a family day out! It has a lot of slides and playgrounds to keep the little ones happy, great selection of animals and plenty of places to have a snack (make sure you pack something with you if you’re vegan as there are no vegan/healthy options). The whole zoo is a smoke free zone, which I personally love! You can park for free at the Kamencove lake and then walk 5 min to the zoo or there is a parking just right by for a cost of 60CZK (cca €2.50) per day which was packed when we arrived. The only downside I found is that the zoo closes at 6PM which I found a bit too early for summer months.
Nikol Z — Google review
It's not the worst zoo that you will visit in Czechia (the one in Tabor is horrible), but it could use a bit of improvement. Entry price is reasonable, and the first thing you can experience is the meduzarium with different types of jellyfishes. Seeing animals is hit & miss as they may choose to hide because of hot weather. There are a few eating spots in the park but the prices are incredibly HIGH! Would recommend bringing your own to save money on food & drinks. They have a farm section where you can get up-close with animals and touch them (mountain goats, guinea pigs, chickens, peacock, ponies etc). All in all, not a bad zoo.

Great zoo and it is enormous. It's a little off the beaten path for most travelers, but we had an extra day. The zoo is well laid out and has a good assortment of animals and activities for kids. The food is good and we ate at the restaurant on premise. The zoo is clean, and they have a very hands-on farm animals area that's great for little ones. I think we spent an hour feeding sheep with the hay the zoo provides. It was overall a very nice day at the zoo. The bears are also very cool, as are the red pandas.

Pravčická Archway

Mentioned on 
3 lists 
Sights & Landmarks
Restaurant
Pravčická Archway, a stunning natural sandstone formation, is a popular scenic site that requires a 5km uphill walk from the paid parking or bus stop. The entrance fee is around 4 EUR and credit cards are accepted. The area offers good amenities and breathtaking views, making it perfect for a sunny day excursion. However, it may not be ideal during windy or rainy weather due to its exposed location.
We recommend visiting here if you are around. Since we spent a night in Hřensko, we just parked our car at the hotel in town and continued walking from there. You can also take a bus or drive a bit further to reduce the walking distance. The path to the top is quite well-organized and well-maintained. Once you turn off from the main road, you’ll really feel how beautiful and impressive those rock walls are. It’s sad to see the damage from the fire a few years back, but it doesn’t reduce the impressiveness. I recommend wearing hiking shoes or good sneakers, as some parts of the path can be a bit slippery on rainy days. When you reach the Archway, there’s a small entrance fee, which likely contributes to maintaining the area. There are also clean toilets, which is really convenient. Before you sit and rest at the restaurant, I’d suggest hiking a bit further to the viewpoint so you can see the Archway from above with beautiful scenery all around. Just be a bit careful — it’s a bit steep and the wind can be quite strong up there. After soaking in the views, feel free to head down and relax with a drink and cake — a small reward for the achievement you made today. Don’t forget to bring your trash back down. I know many people can’t stop smoking, and I don’t mind as it’s your choice, but please don’t throw cigarette butts along the way. It’s not that hard to take even the small trash down so we can help save this area for the next generations. 🙏🏽

Great place to hiking, on website was mentioned that all roads are expert, but as I feel you can go even with kids. One minus, if you want to sit on the top in restaurant you need to pay for entrance, I think it strange decision , as you will pay for food and drinks. Queue for tickets in weekend 15-25 min
Maria E — Google review
In a stunning location amazing place for those who like hiking. It is quite steep in places but the path is beautifully done so everyone can do it. The hike took about 1.5 hours to get to the most incredible natural arch I have ever seen and it is worth to get exhausted on the way. The award on the top is fantastic, lovely restaurant and magnificent views. Access to the final part is restricted by times so it is worth to check out before trip to avoid disappointment and also you have to pay for it but cost is not expensive. Car park available on the bottom in the nearest town.

Truly amazing natural formation. The walk is a bit far from the bottom but manageable. Bring comfortable shoes, open toe are not recommended, there's a lot of loose gravel, sand, and boulders. Once at the top the cost at the main door is 125 kc, but online you can pay 50 kc. Definitely recommended. Walk along the outside edge of the archway and get some great pictures.

We had an extremely interesting hiking experience, saw incredible landscapes and beauties. You have to see it with your own eyes. Parking for a car costs 12 euros. It takes from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours to climb up, depending on your physical condition. Entrance to the most interesting places on the mountain costs 5 euros. The road from Prague by car is about 2 hours. Interesting, beautiful, you will not regret it

Well… even just being here means surrendering yourself to the genius loci of this world-class natural wonder! So close one eye a little.. enjoy your refreshment in this rather simple buffet.. and don’t be surprised by the crowds. What truly matters is the wooden chateau itself.. magnificent building that literally breathes history.

We visited this stunning site during the Easter holidays, and while it was quite crowded, the experience was absolutely worth it. The hike begins at Hřensko, with a well-marked trail leading you upward. There’s ample parking available at the base, but it fills up quickly—so it's best to arrive early. The trail is fairly steep in places, so wearing proper hiking shoes and carrying enough water is highly recommended, especially if you're visiting on a warm day. Once you reach the top, there’s a small entrance fee. At the summit, you will find a cafe, a kiosk, clean restrooms and an information center where you can purchase souvenirs. Note that the kiosk and souvenir shop accept cash only, so be sure to bring some with you. The panoramic views from the top are absolutely breathtaking - perfect for taking a break and soaking in the scenery.

Pravčická Gate, located in Bohemian Switzerland National Park, is the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe and a true geological wonder. The hike to reach it is scenic and well-marked, starting typically from the village of Hřensko (Paid parking, in high season there may not be enough spaces). The site can get crowded in peak season, and there's a small entrance fee. Easy route, for people of all ages.

Terezín Memorial - Ghetto Museum

Mentioned on 
+27 other lists 
Museum
Specialty Museums
Terezín Memorial - Ghetto Museum is a significant site that commemorates the deportation of Jews in the Czech Republic during World War II. The museum features a permanent exhibit showcasing the history of the Concentration Camp and pays tribute to its victims. Notably, there's a Memorial Hall dedicated to the children who were imprisoned, displaying thousands of artworks created by them. Additionally, an exhibition titled 'Art in the Terezin Ghetto' showcases pieces by renowned artists who were detained in the camp.
Terezin memorial was an emotional but very educational experience for me about Nazi crimes against humanity.

Somber visit. Much of the facilities in the prison portion of the facility are intact. Truly appalling conditions. There was a children's art exhibit there when we went which was amazing to see this time through children's eyes. Sad knowing most of them didn't make it. There were other art exhibits showing work of people held there and showed a glimpse into daily life there. Very close to Prague. Worth the visit. This was a waypoint to the big death camps. The guides at the facility were excellent.
Bryan B — Google review
Gut wrenching. Tour guide is too fast in camp. I recommend you find your own transport and then get the tour and take your time afterwards exploring. Good distance between camp and ghetto. The ghetto is now a lived in town with only traces if it's history so you will need help finding the hidden synagogue, and the model living quarters.
Marc P — Google review
The whole town is involved in tourism related to the ghetto. There is no real guidance, you are given a map and you have to manage on your own. The arrival was also really complicated, 2 trains and a lot of walking. It is recommended to come with an guide and/or a vehicle

Very moving experience. Terezin has been maintained over the years, so you really get a sense of what it looked like, even though that gives you little sense of the real horror of the conditions here. We were in a group, so we had a tour guide. I highly recommend touring with a guide if possible. Everything is relatively flat but there are uneven entrances and exits and cobblestones and gravel.

Fascinating museum, one part of the entire Ghetto Museum site. Buy tickets here to the entire site and there's a professionally presented museum to introduce visitors to the history of the site. Everything is available in English and there are maps available of the entire site.

Just down the road from the garrison, or as it now known terezin concentration camp. Some beautiful artwork from the prisoners is on display. Its the whole structure of a fake town set up by the SS to fool the red Cross. Just to make them believe they were being humane. Here's where you wany to take your time walking around. It's now a small town but hardly anyone lives here, due to its history and the threat of flooding.

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Křivoklát Castle, a 12th-century hunting lodge nestled in a dense forest, has a fascinating history as a royal residence and even a prison. The castle was rebuilt in the 19th century and now features a chapel, dungeon, and museum showcasing sleighs. A tour of the castle includes highlights such as the impressive library with over 52,000 books, the Royal Hall, and Gothic chapel.
Very nice castle. Very old, with a rich history! And it's very close to Prague.b

Truly incredible and beautiful castle which is within an hour from Prague without the traffic. We had amazing time a day trip. In the castle you have options depending on your interest and time availability. We took 100 minutes which was in czech language the tour included the whole castle. There is the shorter version too I think 45 minutes. Our tour guide Libor was full of interesting stories, facts and pure history. It was very informative and educating and many things to see inside the castle. Totally worth it and the time passed quickly. Many thanks to him. The castle has few options: shops with wooden decorations, gingerbread, souvenirs, cafe shop and restaurant. The best part was that it was not busy at all, very relaxing atmosphere. Attaching photos and videos from my personal experience. Enjoy 😊

Perfect for a Sunday trip from Prague by train. Not suitable for wheelchair users. The whole castle tour is 340CZK and it takes 100 minutes. Lots of souvenirs and opportunities to eat around. Many walking paths through forest and hills.

Founded back in 12th century, this castle is tightly linked with the history of the Czech state. Set in deep forests and close to the Berounka river Křivoklát castle is well worth a visit any time.

Beautiful and well preserved piece of history. Dated Back to 12th century.

When you arrive at the location you are required to take a guide. Everything would be fine, except the guide only speaks the local language, Czech, so you don’t understand anything at all and they refuse to speak English. As if that weren’t enough, you are forced to follow them, you cannot visit on your own. The castle is empty, it has no furniture at all, just empty halls. All in all, DO NOT VISIT THIS PLACE – the staff are hostile and the location has nothing worthwhile to see.

Worth a detour from the highway. Cozy cafes and impressive views. Recommended
Thomas E — Google review
This is a very old castle, very well preserved. Off course because of the fires it was rebuilt multiple times. You can enter and have a Czech visit. Or you can scan a qr-code and download a pdf with translation. But the translation does not have so much details like the guide gives I recommend to visit and hike in the area around.

Hilltop castle with grand rooms, a collection of 17th-century maps, a winery & scenic restaurant.
The place has an unmistakable spirit. Drahomira's (mother of St.Wenceslaus) supposed place of origin offers spectacular views towards Prague, hill of Rip and obviously the nearby spot where rivers of Moldau an Elbe blend. Enjoy the castle and the spectacular diagonal lane to the river. 9

The lady who manages the castle visits called us from outside and asked us if we wanted to visit the castle (she only knew two words of English, so communicating was difficult), after paying for the tickets (she only accepts cash) she shows us the stairs and gives us a flyer with some information on the (few) rooms of the castle. In one of the first rooms we meet a group of visitors with a guide who spoke Czech, the room was very small so we tried to reach the next one but got yelled at by the lady, she does not speak English and continues to speak in her language towards us, we try to explain to her that we don't understand a single thing she is saying but she continues to shake her head, in the end one of the visitors knew some English and told us that we couldn’t visit the castle without a guide to supervise us, so we were forced to stay in these small rooms with a group of twenty people listening to a guide who didn't speak our language, there is nothing more stupid... it was not possible to take photos and there are only seven rooms (and they don't even look like royal rooms, you can see that the rooms have been renovated several times in recent years), the city is nice for a walk but being not very touristy, even the locals are not predisposed to foreigners.

Wonderful Chateau and winery. Watched the crush, enjoyed a glass of wine on the terrace overlooking the confluence of the rivers!
Janet S — Google review
The Czech Republic 🇨🇿 has not only a reputation as a beer 🍺 country. The Elbe Lowland is one of the most northern wine 🍇 regions in Europe. The traditional stone terraces on the southwestern bank of the river Elbe create the perfect micro climate for winegrowing.🏞 The grapes are processed in a way to become lively, reductive, light wines with a typical bloomy and fruity varietal aroma. 💐 Take a tour to Melnik, a city situated about half hour drive north of Prague. Your celler master takes you through 14th century wine cellar and offers you local wines to taste🍷🥂, accompanied by freshly baked local bread as well as cheese and other snacks.🥖🧀👍

Lidice Memorial

The Lidice Memorial, located just a short bus ride from downtown Prague, is a poignant tribute to the village of Lidice, which was decimated by Nazi soldiers in 1942. The memorial includes a museum that provides insightful and powerful information about the tragic events. Visitors can also stroll through peaceful rose gardens and view touching bronze statues honoring the innocent victims. Many find the experience deeply moving and feel a strong connection to the village that once stood there.
A very strong reminder of the doings of the germans due world war || Not for the faint hearted, but a visit you will never forget... You will, if you are normal, get a lumb in your throat and tears in your eyes.... This is the proof of the most evil animal on the planet.......the human being......period....

A beautiful memorial site to remember the victims of the tragic event that occurred here on 10 June 1942. We all have a responsibility to ensure events like this never occur ever. I recommend visiting this memorial.

Having both Czech and German ancestors it is unbelievable to me how cruel people can be, being so similar to each other. This is one of those important places everybody should visit from time to time to never forget what can happen if we fall for political parties that make us believe some human beings are less important than others.

Such a beautifully maintained and respectful memorial to the events here in June 1942. We visitedvtge memorial exhibition at the side before and after walking around the site and this was a good idea as it gave us an insight before and then clarification after. A special thank you to Jan for taking the time to answer our questions so thoroughly and educate us further - so dedicated to his role and he really made us feel like very special guests. His passion reinforces everything that us good about visiting the darker places of history. Thank you Jan! The children's memorial is the most poignant and powerful I think I have ever seen.

If you love Prague, you should visit the Lidice Memorial, at least once in your life. It’s the tragic history of revenge, of the Nazi’s, after the assassination of Heidrich, in Prague. The Nazi’s decided to completely erase the village of the two brave Czech troupers. Men were killed, women deported, and the children were first deported and then killed. And the then the village was erased, asif it never had existed.
Jonah V — Google review
A beautiful memorial. Its a lovely tranquil place and the silence and what appears absence of the wildlife here, enhances the emotions that are felt. My son left a teddy at the child's memorial, and there are candles and lanterns. We didn't visit the museums but walked the friendship and peace gardens and through to the children of war memorial. Dogs are welcome kept on a lead and there are plenty of bins but bring bags to keep the place clean.

A very sad place. I have been here many times to pay respect. Lidice was destroyed by the Nazi’s during WWII after Reinhard Heydrich was killed (died from his wounds related to assassination attempt on his life in Prague). The Children of Lidice statue and memorial is one of the most powerful and sad statues in the world that I have come across. To think humans can kill children is just beyond words.
Michael M — Google review
Intense experience but absolutely worthwhile to make a visit. The memorial does honor to the horror that occurred here. The memorial is peaceful and expansive due to the large open space and walking trail that leads you through the grounds. Be prepared for some emotions.
