Berlin is an edgy city, from its fashion to its architecture to its charged political history. The Berlin Wall is a sobering reminder of the hyper-charged postwar atmosphere, and yet the graffiti art that now covers its remnants has become symbolic of social progress. Check out the Weltzeituhr (world time) Clock, topped by a model of the solar system, then turn back time by dining at the historic Zur Letzten Instanz, a 16th century restaurant that was frequented by Napoleon and Beethoven.

I visited this last year as it came up as a recommendation, it was worth going to and is a simple memorial at a busy station, it is worth a visit to learn about history and what went on here

Teufelsberg ('Devils mountain') is a hill (120,1m) in the Grunewald Forest in Berlin and is made out of debris of World War II. During cold war a listening post which was used by NSA and GCHQ was built on top of the hill. Since 2011 Teufelsberg can be visited daily during guided walks and tours.
I'm a street art lover so this place was so unique and cool and was definitely worth it. I did not do a lot of museums etc so the 8 euros didn't really bother me. You do have to pay extra, though, if you go in with a real camera vs a phone and there were parts of the compound at the bottom that were blocked off. Pretty sure it's cash only. I did a lot of reading before I went about how to get up there and was a bit nervous about the forest walk and getting lost. There are a few trails that sort of intersect and all end up at the same place. Google maps will definitely help. What I learned coming down....when you're walking from the train, you get to the car park and google maps sends you into the woods at that spot. If you keep going straight down the road another 5-10 mins you'll reach another car park and there is a "paved/stoned" trail that takes you straight up. I came down that way and it was less muddy and more direct. Overall, I loved this experience!
