More Travel Information on Berlin

admin — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 18:03:10 +0000

Here I am with the next posting about my Berlin trip. As I said in my previous article I I had a whole week on my disposal in Berlin, so I was trying to uncover the town in portions. What I had in mind was to see the major monuments, of course, but I didn’t want to be just a tourist, but to feel the real spirit, to come in contact with a lot of the locals and learn how they live, what they usually enjoy to do and have fun, you know, I wanted to get more practical details, not the same things and boring facts about the history, the wall and the story that we all know.

So, I needed to view so many things that I practically had no time to sleep and went to my Apartments in Berlin just to take a shower and a nap to be fresh and relaxed for the next lively and exciting day. When I go somewhere I like the dynamics and want to try as much as possible for the time I have in the specific location. And the German capital without a doubt offered me the opportunity for one dynamic and, at the same time, really pleasant holiday break, not the usual holiday, because when I came back home I was more tired, but really full of positive emotions.This city is multicultural, here you can get together with people from every part of the world, there are so many young people who learn or work or just living their life and that’s why this city is so tempting and exciting. There is always something really interesting going on, whether it would be a concert, an exhibition, a great restaurant or bar, opera etc. Thank god I hired a really decent Apartment Rental Berlin, because otherwise it would have been so unpleasant to spend a lot of money for an apartment that I rarely used.

Furthermore, I saw the chief sites, like the preserved part of the wall, the Checkpoint Charlie, some of the museums and galleries. The parties and having fun were not the only things I was doing there I even made a meals one evening for my friends in my Berlin apartment. The fact that there was a kitchen really made things easier for me, because I wanted to cook something particular for the people who were so great to guide me around the city and reveal me sites that I couldn’t see if I was by myself. In this regard I have to tell that am absolutely contented of my pick of Vacation accommodation in Berlin, because it was really ideal for me to move around, it was really close to the main attractions and the place was very decent, clean and excellent for me.
As a conclusion, I can only wish you to experience such relaxing and full of emotions and experiences holiday as the one I had.

Berlin Great Travel and Fun

admin — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:49:29 +0000

I’m writing here to express how fascinated I am of Berlin and about the pleasant stay I experienced there a week ago. I have planned to make a trip to this interesting country for a long time, so I took the first opportunity of a free time I had and made the decision to visit Berlin. I have several mates there and after some arrangements and not so nice flight, I was in my Berlin accommodation for the next week. I wasn’t fully acquainted where i was, I merely remember that I really wanted a shower and a bed, that’s all; and actually got some doubts that had started this vacation.

Though, in the morning everything has changed and I couldn’t wait to explore the capital of Germany. The weather was ideal for the long tour I have planned and in fact I was pretty surprised to see that there was a metro station very near to my apartment hotel in Berlin and I arrived at the city center within 10 minutes. Because it was Monday, my friends were working throughout the day and I had to wander by myself. That day I planned to visit the Tower, of course, the famous square Alexanderplatz and the Brandenburg Gate. I was truly fascinated of what I saw, of the contrast between the medieval and the modern buildings, which I thought would be bland, but it was in reality really refined and not irritating. I decided to leave the other interesting landmarks for the rest of my stay when several of my friends will demonstrate and tell me more about the real atmosphere of this place. I only have heard wonderful things about the nightlife and the fun side of Berlin and just had to try it.

What’s up,
Here is one more report from myself regarding our adventures touring across The EU. I truly loved it out there, the scenery the individuals, the food, the locations and the past. My travel to in Belgium was the longest and I remained in Brussels for many days. As I pointed out before, this attractive urban center has a lot to offer. We decided to look at the Atom which was a really amazing area with plenty of things to see, furthermore there is the ancient town with the stoned little streets and many little merchants and of course the Brussels Manneken Pis.

All that was there and was absolutely incredible to see. I have heaps of photos of places in Brussels and nevertheless I do not believe I have experienced it all. Oh and the chocolate there was superb, fresh and yummy, like nothing else anyone have tasted, surely a must try. The Holiday accommodation in Brussels enchanted me with the architecture, the way these people have merged contemporary and old in one.

There are a variety of museums that my firends and I visited and really loved – The Fine Arts museum, Royal Residence, The Grand Square. The very best thing about my vacation to Brussels was that I remained in a Brussels accommodation that was just for me and was right in the center of Brussels, this made it easier for me be close to all the activity and entertainment the town offered. I surely loved the country and the town and honestly endorse it.
Here is another nice post that I found on the internet

admin — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 17:51:52 +0000

I am headed towards the end of my adventure relating to Brussels together with what I observed there. In my last posting I want to enlighten you some more about the individuals We connected with and the buddies I made there. Me and my friends slept in a new apartments in Brussels practically a week nevertheless my friend Jan assisted me study the locals, go to in gatherings with these people, talk with them and that was a wonderful sensation. What occurs generally is that a tourist stays in a area, trips the main buildings and then comes home to demonstrate images. Our getaway to Brussels was a little something different. I got to remain by ourselves in a Holiday apartment in Brussels that was a real bargain since we could party in it with my different Belgian mates, it was close to the center hence I ended up saving money on taxis and used it prudently on booze . Well back to the main subject matter- I certainly loved my stay in in Brussels, there were a great deal of things to do, my friends took me to The Little Europe, also got to see The China Pavillion, museum of contemporary art and a lot of more that I don’t remember the names of now. You can find many wonderful things to be viewed in Brussels you only ought to have time and friends to have with you. The evening life is exceptional, there are plenty of discos to see. I had the opportunity to go to other places in Belgium too while on trip there, still Brussels stays the most fascinating spot to me. I am excited to prepare my following getaway.
While here watch a video on Brussels (not mine though):

Brussels travel experience shared with the world. Why travel to Brussels, what to do and where to sleep.

Some time ago me and a friend we went to a trip to Belgium to go to a relative of mine and all of us were truly dazzled by the history and culture this country has to offer. Being used to big highways and high-storey buildings in the downtown vicinity where I am from, it was a stunning difference for all of us to see such a different nation, lots of color, a much different lifestyle. It was indeed a exhilarating encounter.

I passed seven days in Brussels, 4 of which in Madrid. I don’t know about the various other spots, but that one was surely an authentic masterpiece. I fell for it right from the 1st look. The small back alleys, the massive palace, the museums, the whole thing was great. Oh and not surprisingly the sweets. The candy there is not anything like what I am accustomed to having to eat, all home-cooked, yummy as if my girlfriend has prepared them. I traveled a great deal across Brussels looking at people, homes, wildlife, everything round me attempting to remember it forever. Our visit was absolutely worth it and Brussels as well as most of Belgium are an excellent vacation destination and I fervently recommend any person who has time to pay a visit to this place. Oh and last but not least I decided to save some money on a lodge and rented a tiny and Brussels Apartments which saved me a bunch of cash. I do recommend it. I will inform you a bit more regarding the destinations to view in Belgium in some of my coming posts.I definitely recommend the vacation apartments in Brussels I used.
