On Sunday we finally found the time to visit two of Berlin’s best-known flea markets. The first was a smaller and better-curated flea market at Arkonaplatz, which is in Mitte or Prenzlauerberg, depending on who you ask. We also walked a few blocks north to the massive market in Mauerpark. This one offered rows upon rows of vendors selling everything from guitars to socks. Right next door in the park, there was a rock band playing in a stone amphitheater. Quite a scene.

  1. I lived in berlin in early 90’s. It was lacking in NYC skin”color” diversity but it made up for it a different type. I found that the color came from the dazed east germans, the eastern European countries, Turks, Russian, Kurdish(between borscht and Kurdish stews –yummm ), Egyptians..Irish. (oh, and Germans).etc.

    What I didn’t liked was the extended gray winter sky..
