Marzahn-Hellersdorf

The American Bowl in Marzahn is Berlin's most family-friendly bowling alley with 18 lanes, 12 of which are specifically designed for children. Food is served next door at the Play Off Restaurant, where spare ribs and the legendary cheeseburger are on the menu.

In Marzahn, where prefabricated buildings meet expansive green spaces, lies Berlin's green world tour: The Gardens of the World combine over 20 international theme gardens across 43 hectares, a hovering cable car over the Kienberg, and open-air concerts for up to 5,000 visitors.

In Marzahn-Hellersdorf, the Gardens of the World gather eleven theme gardens and nine garden cabinets, from the Chinese Garden with its teahouse to the Balinese Garden under glass. Berlin's only cable car runs across the grounds up to the Wolkenhain on Kienberg. As a Sunday program, this offers options from a short stroll to a full afternoon.

In East Berlin, in Marzahn, the Gardens of the World transform into a grand stage for families at Easter: circus, interactive theater, and a legendary Easter egg hunt across the entire park make the Easter weekend one of the city's most atmospheric spring festivals.

In the Gardens of the World in Marzahn, there are two wedding venues to choose from: the Stone Boat in the Chinese Garden, which juts into the pond like a petrified ship, and the Hall of Receptions in the Oriental-Islamic Garden under a glass dome. As a wedding location in Berlin, this is a rare opportunity to get married amidst themed gardens.

The Arena in the Gardens of the World is an open-air stage on Blumberger Damm in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, built in 2017 for the IGA garden exhibition based on a design by Paul Böhm. Up to 5,000 guests can find space on benches and lawn terraces around the stage. In 2026, Agnes Obel and the Dresden Philharmonic played here. It is the greenest among Berlin's open-air concert locations.

In Marzahn, right next to one of Berlin's largest industrial bakeries, Harry Brot sells its fresh baked goods at factory prices from five in the morning. If you want to buy bread, rolls, and toast cheaper than in the supermarket, this is the right place.
