Berlinische Galerie is one of the city's major modern art hubs. Displays range from photography and three-dimensional installations to changing exhibitions of stained glass, stunning textiles and embroidery, and an array of thought-provoking video art. Head to this sleek gallery as you waltz by the quaint streets of Kreuzberg. 

With nearly two hundreds years of excellence in the Berlin food scene, Borchardt offers a historic dining experience. Classic German dishes are paired with the best of imported ingredients, a tradition for the restaurant. The history of notable guests is not an element of the past, be prepared to dine with the who's who of Berlin. 

The name may be silly, but this popular but well hidden restaurant excels when it comes to innovative vegetarian food. The entrance is down the service alley of the Westin Grand Hotel (past the chandelier, ring the bell). Grab an aperitif at Cookies Bar before dinner.

Fostering a diverse range of artistic mediums, from multimedia installations to sculptural works, the Schinkel Pavilion offers a harmonious blend of innovation and aesthetic resonance housed within the garden of the Kronprinzenpalais. Expanding on over one hundred years displaying contemporary art, the Schinkel Pavilion continues to redefine progressive art programming in Berlin.
