But, as you can imagine, the most unique and interesting parts of Berlin are not the ones described in the guide books. Instead, they are the sights, the sounds and destinations that take you into the heart and soul of this incredible city that changes its beat with every corner. Many visitors are attracted to Berlin for its alternative side, for the subculture that powers thousands of non-confirmists that have made Berlin into the city it is today.
