Of all the train stations I visited while in Berlin this was the ideal; beautiful architecture due…read moreto its age. It has a shopping center district around it. Blocks away, bars, shops, restaurants with patio seating surrounds the area. This is its own tourist destination and not just a train station stop. I would not have guessed it opened in 1882. For such an old station it is not run-down nor dated - relatively clean too. The architecture is uncommon and quite amazing with lots of brickwork. What's more amazing is seeing trains going by above ground but within an enclosure!

This subway station is a living statement of Berlin's history. Founded as "Danziger Strasse"in the…read more1900's, it was renamed to "Dimitroff Strasse" after a Bulgarian Military general during the Socialist times. It eventually became "Eberswalder Strasse", referencing a nearby street, after the wall came down. Another fun fact is that this underground station is actually above the ground - parts of the subway line U2 run overground in the middle of Schönhauser Allee. This part of the line was finished in the 1910s and is running ever since. Today, the intersection Schönhauser Allee/Pappelallee/Danziger Straße/Kastanienallee is one of the busiest intersections of Prenzlauer Berg. It's a short walk to Mauerpark, Kulturbrauerei, lots of restaurants, boutique shops, and you'll get tram connection to Mitte, Pankow, or Friedrichshain. Oh, and East Berlins most famous Currywurst is located right across the station - Konnopke's.

U-Bahn station Warschauer Straße is the final destination of the Line 1, from here it took you…read morefairly close to the River Spree, Oberbaumbrücke and the East Side Gallery, such a great sightseeing places. It got also quite nice view to the Berlin city center, if you like to see like see the whole center, this sure is a good spot. The station is also very close to the S-Bahnhof Warschauer Straße, if you need to change to this station, just need to walk about 3-5 mins, then you will reach the platform. If you like trains, here is a great spot to see the trains and railways. Inside and around the station have many different shops and restaurants. If you need something to drink or eat before you get on the train (or after), it is quite convenient to do so. Because of all the construction going around the S-Bahnhof, for awhile already. This area does look pretty messy to me. And you could see graffiti and some rubbishes everywhere, the street also seem quite dirty. It is not a good impression actually. It made the station a bit ugly. it's always full people here. They a got a small parking for bikes, but isn't big enough, so you could see bikes locks up everywhere as well. Hopefully the station will be better after the renovation.

The station itself is under renovations at the moment (Oct 2012) and there is no kiosk at the…read moremoment which is quite absurd. However, it serves my favourite underground line in Berlin (U1) which provides the best east-west connection in the city centre.

The U-Bahnhof Schönhauser Allee itself isn't really big, no really fancy architecture style or…read moreanything special. Just a ragelar station you can see in Berlin. For me, what really interesting are the surrounding. There are lot of shops, supermarkets and restaurants around. It's surely this neighbour does lack of place to shop. Under the station, you can see lot ls of bikes parking here, somehow looks pretty cool and urban. The view on the platform is other thing I like, especially when they turn the lights on. The station didn't really cover by walls. So at the winter time, it could be really cool. The station doesn't have any info office, but other than that, it got what the station normally needs. If you want to go to the S-Bahnhof Schönhauser Allee, get out of the station first and go behind the mall, then you will find it.

hahaha awesome. Yes, I will rate another train station. Schönhauser Allee S-bahnhof is the pits!!…read more Way too many Prenzlauer Bergers running around. My advice to anyone upon finding out that this station is the closest to their destination is to consider switching to S-bahnhof Bellevue, perhaps. It's not at all close to Schönhauser Allee and chances are you'll spend a good €30 on a taxi getting back up to where you want to go, but the walk along the canal is quite scenic and it meets up with that lovely wrought-iron bridge. Especially beautiful in autumn with the leaves falling and that. Again, the main drawback to this station as an alternative to Schönhauser Allee would be its extremity from Prenzlauer Berg, but I suppose that's a decision you'll have to make, whether the trade off would be worth it.
