Berlin
Recent history you can walk through, and nightlife that outlasts everything else.
Berlin is the largest urban destination in Germany and the cheapest of Europe’s major capitals to spend a weekend in. Its subject matter is the twentieth century — the Wall, the Holocaust memorial, Checkpoint Charlie — set against a museum island and a club scene with no real equivalent.
