Just walk around Pariser Platz and get some nice shots of the gate including the city in the background. Visiting the place during Sundays is less crowded hence offering a real, good and comprehensive view of this monument.

2. Walking through the Kreuzberg Neighborhood

As for culture and arts the district is said to be the beating heart of Berlin, so it is best to go explore Kreuzberg on Sundays. The Turkish Market located along the canal should be the first stop as you begin your day around Amsterdam. As you can expect, you will be able to taste various types of freshly made fruit and vegetables, food sold directly from the streets and other exquisite artwork. Then, just explore the Kreuzberg neighborhood to take closer looks at the street art and visit more shops selling second hand clothes and young fashion. There is also a variety of food stands and amongst them there is always a yummy falafel or a slice of pizza.

2.1 A nice stroll can be made at the Görlitzer Park to have for a picnic.

So in case you ever find yourself in the Kreuzberg area go and take a visit to Görlitzer Park. Such a breathtaking piece of greenery is perfect for spending a Sunday captioned picnic. Go for a picnic under a tree, spread a lovely blanket and relax for a couple hours in the park. Most of the days you will find people dancing to these tunes, doing some yoga or perhaps, evening out with the sun. It is a nice way of feeling the relaxed multiculturalism of Berlin.

3. Find art and history in Berlin and taste Berlin.

A tour of the art and history of Berlin is incomplete without a visit to the capital city of Germany. On Sunday is the best time to devote to the numerous museums and galleries of the city. Museum Island today is also a heritage site under the UNESCO and houses some of the best museum in the world such as Pergamon Museum, the Bode Museum and The Neues Museum. Sign in and spend some leisure moments here discovering so much of the historical background of this great city as well as the beautiful artwork displayed.

3.1Go to East Side Gallery

To experience more of modern art, the East Side Gallery is for you. This is a unique art gallery that covers a part of the old Berlin Wall and features murals of more than one hundred pieces by the artists of different countries. To my mind, it is an extraordinary and convincing expression of the city’s history and, of course, a must-see place for those who appreciate the art.

4. Socialize in the Tiergarten Park

Tiergarten, an extensive park integrates the largest part of the city and can be termed as the most appropriate break from the din of the city. During the whole Sunday people from different countries come here riding bikes, walking dogs and having picnics. Wander along the park like the local Green park with lovely tree alleys, do the English Garden and see the Victory Column with a superb view on the city. Another way to enjoy Tiergarten is to take a paddleboat and ride round the lake providing another angle at the park.

5. Great opportunity to visit the famous Mauerpark Flohmarkt

In the case that you find yourself in Berlin on a Sunday then should visit the maeru park flea market. This large open air market has an array of used clothes, jewelry, furniture, records, and other curious. Get before mid morning or late afternoon to avoid the large crowds as you tour through the market. It is because when you shop, you can even listen to live musicians perform in the theatre nearby or you can participate in the fun karaoke singing in the Bearpit Karaoke singing contest, where people sing in front of several ears, shouting at them.

5.1 Chill out at Bearpit Karaoke

If you fancy it, grab the microphone and sing yourself a song in the Bearpit Karaoke. This being the case, every Sunday the amphitheater transforms into a stage for anyone who wants to belt out tunes. It is worth seeing which gives the impression of the German capital and perfectly reflects the atmosphere of Berlin.
