The most residential section of the city, West Berlin has a relaxed and affluent vibe unlike the more frenetic areas to the east. However, prices tend to be higher as many of the city’s wealthiest people live in this area.

Thanks to the nearby Free and Technical universities, a large student population keeps the atmosphere lively, but nightspots nonetheless tend toward swanky lounges and music venues.

There are plenty of daytime options in West Berlin, including the city’s largest park, Tiergarten, the tourist attractions in and near the park, and Kurfürstendamm Strasse, Berlin’s posh shopping hub.

While West Berlin is great for easygoing socializing, its nightlife does not represent all that Berlin has to offer. Exploring other neighborhoods is a must for those who wish to understand the city as a whole and discover just what makes it so special.
