If ever you have the time and find yourself in Berlin during the Festival of lights, DO NOT MISS!…read moreThis is a must-see event where you will find yourself immersed in lit up architecture around the whole city. Lit up you may say, yes lit up from top to bottom some with lighting that is so intricately detailed. It's a show second to none in one kick ass city, Berlin! We saw many of the famous monuments lit up from Brandenburg Gate to the TV Tower, but also enjoyed lit up architecture throughout the inner city too. I was very pleased we missed Oktoberfest and landed here during the Festival of Lights. One-of-a-kind show happening on one-of-a-kind structures that are as old as old can be.

In den vergangenen Jahren hat sich das Festival of Lights nicht nur sehr verkleinert, sondern ist…read moreauch regelrecht langweilig geworden. Vor wenigen Jahren waren die Tage des Festivals noch mit Touren durch die ganze Stadt verbunden, um die tollen beleuchteten Gebäude in den unterschiedlichen Bezirken bewundern zu können. Ich erinnere hier z.B. an den Spreebogen oder das Schloss Bellevue oder das Rathaus Schöneberg. Heute reduziert sich die Veranstaltung auf den Bereich vom Alexanderplatz bis zum Brandenburger Tor; noch nicht mal der Potsdamer Platz ist dieses Jahr einen Besuch wert. Schade, was nach vielen Jahren aus diesem ehemaligen Top-Event der Stadt geworden ist: eine Veranstaltung, die man krampfhaft am Leben erhalten möchte.

And it doesn't matter who you are or which sex orientations, as long as you a friendly, open-minded person, this place always welcome your visit. I have been there serval times now. It's one of my favourite street fair in Berlin. What is so special about it? Inside the street first, has many different kind of stand, such as food, cocktails, some local specials could be easily found here. At the other side, it got different stands of parties and clubs that help gay people or just get together. It is a great way to get to know the gay sense here. Beside all of these, it also offers some stands for clothing, accessories, movie sort of things. Some of them are really cool, the price seem to be quite cool as well. And of course some entertainment shows on the stage. It is free for the entrance. I really glad that it has such as street fair in Berlin. It really brought all kinds of different people together and celebrate it. It's also great to have some great event not just about sex or polity. People can simply just enjoy it.
