Location
In Kreuzberg, an up-and-coming neighborhood with an artistic side
Known as X-Berg, Kreuzberg was formally an industrial town with cheap rent and sub-par living conditions for poor immigrants who moved to the area. Though part of the neighborhood appears as the Kreuzberg of the past -- after the fall of the Berlin Wall -- it once again became a central location and attracted more businesses and people.The neighborhood has one of the youngest populations in Germany (as rent in some areas is still inexpensive) and the influx of artists and writers has made the area very cultured. It's also a nice spot to stroll around, especially along the water. However, some areas can still be a bit spotty so be sure to get a feel of the neighborhood before going out alone.- 17-minute drive to Tegel Airport
