I'm going back to Berlin in a few weeks: any suggestions on things I should go check out?
When in Berlin, the highlight of my trip was taking a 6hour long walking tour through the city. They showed everything and explained why the city looks and acts the way it does. It was a very powerful tour. I would suggest you take a tour like that. Its also a great place to make friends.
