Romantic places in Berlin
Berlin is more romantic than its reputation suggests. At sunset over the vast Tempelhofer Feld, on a slow walk through the Tiergarten, or hand in hand along the Kurfürstendamm, the city reveals a quiet tenderness between all the concrete. For fairy-tale moments there is the park around Schloss Charlottenburg; for history wrapped in closeness, the Berlin Wall Trail. Our picks for togetherness in Berlin — from green retreats to places that begin to glow after dark.
