Top10 List: Places for the Best View Over Berlin
Where do you get the best views in Berlin? It's true, the city doesn't really have that many hills and mountains as viewpoints from which you get a look over Berlin, but still there are some places where you can enjoy a spectacular view. If you are in for a bit more of a thrill, watch the bustling metropolis soaring above it in a balloon or with a cocktail in your hand while watching the sunset on a rooftop terrace. The Top10 Team hopes you enjoy the 10 best viewing points of Berlin. Our tip: Don't forget to bring your camera!
Rank 1: TV Tower Berlin
Berlin's TV Tower is one of the most emblematic sights of the city and with its 368 metres of height not only Berlin's but Germany's highest building.
Show location …Rank 2: Weltballon
Berlin's Weltballon is among the world's biggest helium-filled balloons. The sensation of floating in mid-air is however just an illusion: the balloon is secured to the ground with a strong steel cable. During the rise, the pilot will answer all your questions about the sights of Berlin.
Show location …Rank 3: Panoramic View from Kollhoff Tower
Europe's fastest lift and most likely Berlin's best sunset - only two of the things the 103 metres high Kollhoff Tower is scoring with.
