Berlin Culture - The words culture and Berlin are synonymous with each other for any traveller who has visited this fresh and innovate city. Museum Island, as discussed earlier, is a terrific place for the culture and history buff to start exploring the intricacies of Berlin. Whether you have a love of classical music, or a passion for ancient mythology, there is a museum to cover almost every subject in Berlin.

Berlin is also a place littered with art galleries. The displays available are eye-catching and interesting, and the atmosphere created in the galleries is one of peace, relaxation and respect. For the art lover, Berlin offers a whole host of enjoyment. From Rembrandt’s canvasses to Daniel Libeskind’s new Jewish Museum, Berlin has something to offer everyone.

Berlin’s Haus der Kulturen Welt (Berlin’s House of World Culture) is a former Congress Hall, and was built in 1957. It was labelled the “pregnant oyster”, and it stages cultural events from all over the world. If you are looking for entertainment, culture and education all rolled into one, then this is your ideal choice.

Berlin Culture is not only home to galleries and exhibitions. There are many shows such as ballet, opera, and classical concerts that are performed throughout the year. These offer an interesting and entertaining night out for many travellers, and are well worth a look.

Musicals, cabaretts, revues, varietés, and comedies are all part of the culture of Berlin, and many showings are available at certain times of the year. Local Tourist Offices often have a program of events, or contact details for the venue where the event is taking place. Make sure that you book in advance though, as spaces can fill up fast.

Along with this, you will find the odd science and commerce exhibition, if you look hard enough. In fact, you can pretty much find anything in Berlin if you look hard enough!
