The 10 best photo spots in Berlin
Berlin is a city of powerful images, and anyone who sets out with a camera finds a new motif on every corner. At the S-Bahnhof Ostkreuz in Friedrichshain, tracks and steel girders cross into a graphic play of lines, while the Futurium in Mitte reflects the sky with its gleaming facade. Anyone seeking height can look out over the wide green of the forests from the Grunewaldturm or climb the Gasometer in Schoeneberg for the panoramic view. The striking Le Corbusierhaus in Charlottenburg also casts its spell over architecture lovers. From industrial charm to sweeping views, the city offers perspectives for every angle. Which photo spot would you put in front of your lens first?

With a camera in hand, I see Berlin with fresh eyes again and again and discover perspectives that stay hidden in everyday life. For this list, I roamed through the city from Ostkreuz to the Grunewaldturm, always on the lookout for the best light. Where I lingered longest was the Futurium in Mitte, whose facade glows differently at every time of day. I will show you where Berlin is at its most photogenic.
