Bike rental station: Here – very close to my flat – you can rent bikes from DB, the German railway company, cruise around Berlin and leave them wherever you want to. It’s quite cheap, too.

Sightseeing
Berliner Fernsehturm
1A PanoramastraßeYou can see the whole city from here!
The alternative to the more expensive Fernsehturm: You get access to the roof for only 3 €. Fernsehtum is 12 € (I think). You can also jump from the roof (and survive) for about 80 €.

Food Scene
Kollwitzplatz is surrounded by renovated houses that can make you feel a bit like you’re back in the 1920s (they had to use the original colors when they renovated). It’s full of restaurants and bars.

It’s called the Ku’damm of East Berlin. Strange comparision as it is a much smaller street with almost no traffic. Therefore it has a lot of interesting shops, cafes and restaurants.
